DOI:10.5958/0976-4666.2016.00030.9

Abstract:

This paper attempts to measure the factors responsible for the performance of cooperative sugar factories. In this study the three cooperative sugar factories are taken into consideration. It has been observed that in the study area, factors for becoming the member of sugar factories, are recovery percentage, remunerative price and correct weight. The study has provided enough evidence about the financial ratios which has shown the economic potentiality of the respective sugar factories. To improve cane procurement by sugar factories according to their fixed targets, the factory has to plan the programmes well before the start of the season, so that the installed capacity utilisation can be met. The government should come forward to help the farmers in making the cane bill payment at an early stage by the factories, by extending financial assistance, so that farmers can go for the purchase of inputs well in advance for sugarcane cultivation.
