Hi, I have a question and I hope anyone could answer it:

Why is there a tendency for the sugar mills to shift and concentrate in the southern and western states in India ? Explain any three reasons.

1 Answer

  1. Shifting of sugar industries to Southern states is because:
    i Sugarcane that grows there has a higher sucrose content.
    ii Favourable climate provides longer crushing period and growing season.
    iii Cooperatives are successful in these states.
    iv Modern mills have more crushing capacity.
