&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Lower surplus, higher prices could help reduce arrears to farmers in poll bound U.P. and Punjab&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Unseasonal rains in Uttar Pradesh and a higher diversion to ethanol production are likely to result in a drop in sugar production this year, according to industry estimates. With average retail sugar prices also on the rise, a reduction in surplus sugar could help speed up cane payments by mills and reduce their pending arrears to farmers this season.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Late payments and arrears have become a political flashpoint recently, especially in the poll-bound States of U.P. and Punjab. At the end of July, when the latest data is available, arrears to farmers stood at ₹2,417 crore.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Retail sugar prices are up 5% in comparison to last year. Delhi alone has seen retail prices spike over 13% in the last three months, according to monitoring by the Consumer Affairs Department.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Based on satellite images taken in the second week of October, the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA)estimated that 54.37 lakh hectares has been sown with sugarcane this year, about 3% higher than during the previous season. However, the increased acreage is unlikely to translate into higher production.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Due to heavy and untimely rainfall in U.P., especially in the eastern part of the State, yield and sugar recovery are both likely to fall this year. The first advance estimates pegged the production at 113.5 lakh tonnes.&lt;/p&gt;

Lower surplus, higher prices could help reduce arrears to farmers in poll bound U.P. and Punjab

With average retail sugar prices also on the rise, a reduction in surplus sugar could help speed up cane payments by mills and reduce their pending arrears to farmers this season.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Late payments and arrears have become a political flashpoint recently, especially in the poll-bound States of U.P. and Punjab. At the end of July, when the latest data is available, arrears to farmers stood at 2,417 crore.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Retail sugar prices are up 5% in comparison to last year. Delhi alone has seen retail prices spike over 13% in the last three months, according to monitoring by the Consumer Affairs Department.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Based on satellite images taken in the second week of October, the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA)estimated that 54.37 lakh hectares has been sown with sugarcane this year, about 3% higher than during the previous season. However, the increased acreage is unlikely to translate into higher production.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Due to heavy and untimely rainfall in U.P., especially in the eastern part of the State, yield and sugar recovery are both likely to fall this year.

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Unseasonal rains in Uttar Pradesh and a higher diversion to ethanol production are likely to result in a drop in sugar production this year, according to industry estimates. With average retail sugar prices also on the rise, a reduction in surplus sugar could help speed up cane payments by mills and reduce their pending arrears to farmers this season.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Late payments and arrears have become a political flashpoint recently, especially in the poll-bound States of U.P. and Punjab. At the end of July, when the latest data is available, arrears to farmers stood at ₹2,417 crore.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Retail sugar prices are up 5% in comparison to last year. Delhi alone has seen retail prices spike over 13% in the last three months, according to monitoring by the Consumer Affairs Department.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Based on satellite images taken in the second week of October, the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA)estimated that 54.37 lakh hectares has been sown with sugarcane this year, about 3% higher than during the previous season.

-The Hindu Lower surplus, higher prices could help reduce arrears to farmers in poll bound U.P. and Punjab Unseasonal rains in Uttar Pradesh and a higher diversion to ethanol production are likely to result in a drop in sugar production this year, according to industry estimates. With average retail sugar prices also on the rise, a reduction in surplus sugar could help speed up cane payments by mills and reduce their pending arrears to farmers this season. Late payments and arrears have become a political flashpoint recently, especially in the poll-bound States of U.P. and Punjab. At the end of July, when the latest data is available, arrears to farmers stood at 2,417 crore. Retail sugar prices are up 5% in comparison to last year. Delhi alone has seen retail prices spike over 13% in the last three months, according to monitoring by the Consumer Affairs Department. Based on satellite images taken in the second week of October, the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA)estimated that 54.37 lakh hectares has been sown with sugarcane this year, about 3% higher than during the previous season. However, the increased acreage is unlikely to translate into higher production.
