Government Considers Measures to Address Sugar Surplus

Government Considers Measures to Address Sugar Surplus

The Indian government is thinking about ways to help the sugar industry because there is too much sugar being made.

They want to let more sugar be sold to other countries and make more ethanol from sugar to use in fuel.

The price of sugar has not been updated in a long time, and this is making it hard for farmers to get paid on time.

The government is also thinking about increasing the price they pay for sugar to help farmers.

They are worried that if they don't do something, there will be too much sugar and farmers won't be able to sell it all.
