Abstract
India is an agricultural country that has developed into a major producer of sugarcane and sugar. Sugar is one of the most important agro-based industries, employing over 50 million sugarcane producers and 5 lakh workers in sugar mills directly or indirectly. One of India's most important exports is sugar. Although the sugar industry contributes considerably to the national economy, it faces several challenges as a result of the corona virus. Sugarcane producers, sugar industries, stakeholders, employees, and their integrated businesses are all affected by the most recent pandemic new corona virus (Covid-19), which is affecting sugarcane producers, sugar industries, stakeholders, employees, and their integrated businesses not only in India but around the world. The entire value chain of the Indian sugar industries is affected by major spillover effects in the national economy, including cane production, sugar, molasses, and ethanol. As a result, the focus of this study is on the impact of covid-19 sugarcane harvesting issues, sugarcane marketing and crushing, new concerns in the sugar sector as a result of covid-19, and the impact on sugar demand in the domestic and international markets.
