Marketing Depends On

  • Marketing of sugarcane/sugar is highly controlled and subject to government restrictions. No producer/importer/exporter of sugar can sell/dispose of/deliver any kind of sugar except under and in accordance with the direction issued by the Government.

  • The profitability of sugar mills is affected by the ratio of free sale quota to levy quota. Though this ratio has been considerably reduced to 10:90, the sale of free sugar is subject to monthly release system.

  • Sugarcane alone accounts for 60 per cent of the cost of sugar production. Though the Central Government fixes the Statutory Minimum Price (SMP) for sugarcane, the mills have to procure sugarcane at State Advice Prices (SAPs) fixed by the State governments. As the SAPs are invariably higher than the SMP, it affects the viability of processing.

  • There is a visible difference in the plant size and operational efficiency of the mills in the private and the co-operative sector.

  • To achieve operational efficiency, availability of sugarcane is required throughout the season and requires proper management of raw material. It is however, difficult to ensure owing to farmers harvesting more than the quantity ordered to clear their fields or diverting cane to gur/khandsari units.

Transport of Cane

  • Organising an efficient cane transport system is of paramount importance, so that the cane is delivered at required quantity within 24 hours.

  • Optimum economic distance for cane transport ranges from 10 to 26 km.

Cane price and Payment

  • The price for the sugarcane supplied to the sugar factory is fixed by the local state governments based on the cost of cultivation and other factors and the price is linked to the sugar recovery. The Tamil Nadu State Government has recently (year 2009-2010) fixed a price of Rs.1, 550 per tonne of cane with 9.5 percent sugar recovery.

  • The sugar factories make payment to the registered cane growers through banks.

C O D E X A L I M E N T A R I U S

C O D E X  A L I M E N T A R I U S  is about safe, good food for everyone - everywhere.


The C O D E X  A L I M E N T A R I U S international food standards, guidelines and codes of practice contribute to the safety, quality and fairness of this international food trade. Consumers can trust the safety and quality of the food products they buy and importers can trust that the food they ordered will be in accordance with their specifications.
The Codex Alimentarius Commission, established by FAO and WHO in 1963 develops harmonised international food standards, guidelines and codes of practice to protect the health of the consumers and ensure fair trade practices in the food trade. The Commission also promotes coordination of all food standards work undertaken by international governmental and non-governmental organizations.


Codex standards are based on the best available science assisted by independent international risk assessment bodies or ad-hoc consultations organized by FAO and WHO. While being recommendations for voluntary application by members, Codex standards serve in many cases as a basis for national legislation.
Codex process - in many cases assisted by the Codex Trust Fund, which strives to finance - and train - participants from such countries to enable efficient participation. Being an active member of Codex helps countries to compete in sophisticated world markets - and to improve food safety for their own population. At the same time exporters know what importers demand, and importers are protected from substandard shipments. International governmental and non-governmental organizations can become accredited Codex observers to provide expert information, advice and assistance to the Commission.
