ARTICLE 4 #CrushingSeason

Farmers in Karnataka have intensified their demand for the state government and sugar mills to fix the price of sugarcane before the commencement of the crushing season. With the harvesting and crushing period approaching, farmers are urging authorities to announce a fair and remunerative cane price to avoid last-minute disputes and financial losses.

The National Federation of Cooperative Sugar Factories (NFCSF) has reported that 325 sugar mills across India have commenced crushing operations for the ongoing sugar season.
