New molasses policy in UP

Lucknow, Oct 30 (UNI) To ensure uninterrupted availability of molasses to the distilleries producing ethanol, molasses based units and to the potable distilleries making country liquor, the molasses policy 2020-21 has been approved by the Uttar Pradesh cabinet which met here on Friday.
“The proceeds from the sale of ethanol and molasses have been tagged for the payment to sugarcane farmers,” the spokesman said.
He said that ethanol production from B-heavy molasses is being encouraged in the state. Only two sugar mills in the state were producing ethanol from B-Heavy molasses in the year 2018-19. At present 26 sugar mills are producing ethanol from B-heavy molasses and the production of B-heavy molasses in the state has increased almost 10 times. Ethanol production from Cane Juice is also being promoted by the state government.
