Which of the following factors are responsible for the rapid growth of sugar production in south India as compared to north India?
I.Higher per acre field of sugarcane
II.Higher sucrose content of sugarcane
III.Lower labour cost
IV.Longer crushing period
Answer: D
The answer is I, II and IV.
South Indian cane yields more per acre and has a higher sucrose content, because the tropical climate suits it, and the crushing season runs far longer - often eight months against four in the north, there being no severe winter. Labour costs in the south are not lower.
