Sugar production estimated to decline in Maha, retail prices could rise

Sugar production in Maharashtra is expected to drop by over 11% this year due to unseasonal rain, dry spells, and forecasted less-than-average rainfall. This could lead to a rise in the retail rate of sugar. The area under sugarcane cultivation is expected to remain at 14.37 lakh hectares, with an expected production of 94 lakh metric tonnes. The recovery rate is expected to be 10%, lower than the average rate of 11.25%. The drop in production may lead to government intervention to restrict exports and stem a rise in retail prices.
