Sugarcane farmers in Sangareddy district have urged industries to buy the farm produce at least at ₹5,000 per tonne, considering drop in the yield due to El Nino weather phenomena and increasing cultivation costs. Citing the prices in neighbouring States including Maharashtra, the farmers have asked them to consider expenditure on fertilizers, labour, diesel and others to come to a conclusion.
Various aspects pertaining to sugarcane cultivation and procurement were discussed at a meeting on the prices held by Sangareddy Additional Collector T.L. Sangeetha with representatives of factories, farmers organisations and others, at the Collectorate on Tuesday (November 10, 2026).
The Additional Collector suggested the representatives to consider the welfare of farmers and development of industries in taking the decision in two to three days.
