The Hindu
They say crushing must start immediately at Alanganallur sugar factory
Around 100 members of the Tamil Nadu Sugarcane Farmers Association continued their wait-in protest, pressing for immediate start of cane crushing, on the National Cooperative Sugar Mills premises at Alanganallur on Wednesday.
“After two years of lockdown of the mill owing to meagre coverage of sugarcane cultivation due to lack of adequate water for irrigation, this year over 60,000 tonnes of cane have already been registered with the mill,” said association State president N. Palanisami.
