The 2019-20 sugarcane crushing season in Maharashtra will see the most delayed start in the state’s recent past. While some millers are worried about the delayed start, others are relieved by it. Why was this year’s crushing season delayed? In Pune and its surrounding regions, however, millers and farmers are worried about the delayed start this season. Millers in the sugar bowl of Sangli-Kolhapur as well as those in Marathwada have welcomed a slightly delayed start to the season.
