nd was converted to a green town, credited to the Maharaja who brought the Gang canal which carries

the excess waters of Punjab and Himachal Pradesh to the region, making Ganganagar district known as

"the food basket of Rajasthan". [6] The economy of the city is based on agriculture, its main crops are

Wheat, Mustard and Cotton. Other crops are Guar, Bajra, Sugar Cane and Grams. In recent years

farmers are also diverting towards Horticulture, and Kinnu(A Citrus Family fruit) has become a major crop

of the area. The industries in the city are mostly based on agriculture. The city has Cotton Ginning and

Pressing factories, Mustard Oil mills and Wheat Flour mills and of course the famous Rajasthan State

Ganganagar Sugar Mills Ltd., which is known for its Royal Heritage Liqueurs. [7][8] It also has spinning and

textile factories such as J C T Mills. Because of its prosperity from agriculture, Ganganagar District also

has a large number of automobiles which includes tractors and MUVs and because of the large

population of automobiles in the district, Sri Ganganagar has become one of the largest automobile

markets in India

SUGAR MILL, DISTILLERY AND POWER PLANT



India is now the largest producer of sugar in the world. Although subject to cyclical fluctuations, sugar production has grown phenomenally in the mid-1990s. It expanded from 14.6 mn tonnes in1994-95 to 16.5 mn tonnes in 1995-96, representing a growth of 18% in one year. The next twoyears witnessed a sharp fall to below 13 mn tonnes in 1997-98. Keeping to the cyclical nature of the industry, the years following witnessed a smart rise in production to 15.5 mn and 18.2 mn

tonnes in 1998-99 and 1999-00, respectively. This marked a satisfactory upward movement at over 12% in the period 1996 to 2000. The country had a total supply of 31.5 mn tonnes in 2002-03. With consumption pegged at 18.4 mn tonnes and exports at 1.5 mn tonnes, it was left with

stocks of 11.6 mn tonnes by end September 2003. A large number of sugar producing companies,144 out of 564, remained closed during the season. India continued to have a comfortabledemand-supply position throughout the 1990s, inspite of fluctuations in production. On a longer term, there was no reason for importing sugar. The country, however, went ahead and imported

sizable quantities in the 1997-2000 period. At the same time sugar exports expanded to 1.2 mntonnes in 2000-01 and to 1.5 mn tonnes in 2002-03. The import quotas are decided by the

government and do not attract import duty. The industry complains that while there was no duty on imported sugar, nor even a countervailing duty, the local industry is subject to various kindsof levies such as purchase tax, cane cess and excise duty. WTO prescribes a maximum duty of 150% on sugar. In the US, the import duty on sugar is as high as 130%. India is the only country

which allowed sugar to be imported at zero duty. Most countries imposing such high tariffs areindustrial countries with less than 5% of the population depending on agriculture. The IndianSugar Mills Association has been for futures trading in sugar to provide a cushion to the industry once decontrolled. The National Federation of Cooperative Sugar Mills, the apex organisation of 250 cooperative sugar mills accounting for nearly 60% of country's sugar production, did not

support it. The government has removed all restrictions on sugar exports and permitted commencement of future trading in white sugar. Ethanol is an organic alcohol with a wide rangeof uses, both industrially and recreationally. It has a relatively simple manufacturing processmaking it readily available and cheap to manufacture. The main raw material for the ethanol ismolasses available in sugar mills. Cogeneration is the simultaneous of process heat and electric

waste into useful energy. In sugar industry, it is required to product both steam and theelectricity for driving the sugar processing. To venture into this integrated plant is very

profitable.

Problems faced by sugar industry:

A t present, 453 sugar firms are operating in India and the installed capacity of these mills is ranging between below 1 ,250 tonnes crushed per day (TCD) of sugarcane and 10 ,000 TCD. Nevertheless, because of inadequate supply of caneand excessive intervention of the government in fixing the price for both sugar andsugarcane, most of the existing plants and machinery are not being fully utilized insugar producing states of India. Further, low levels of profitability and low sugar recovery from sugarcane add up the excess capacity in the industry. Besides this,the licensing policy system followed by the government until 1998 did not permitthe capacity expansion of the existing mills and thus, restricted them to availeconomies of scale. Even after the adoption of delicensing policy of September 1998 , the industry is operating with high order of politicization and governmentcontrol. Consequently, sugar firms are carrying a huge stock of underutilized capitalor capacity. Thus, the political control on sugar firms¶ operations hinders thetechno-economic feasibilities and restricts them to expand their capacity per unit.Contrary to this, sugar industry all over the world has been consolidating andmoving towards larger capacity per unit.

In India, a few attempts have been made to evaluate

Case Study of a Corporate Paper±Sugar ComplexIndustrial Ecology offers the possibility of an alternative corporate planning model. This is illustrated by the case of a paper company, Seshasayee Paper and BoardLtd (SPB), in Tamil Nadu. SPB started a paper mill, which went into commercial productionin 1962. In order to ensure regular supply of raw material, a sugar mill was setup. The waste from the sugar mill (called bagasse) was used as a raw material forpapermaking. Another waste from the sugar mill, molasses, was used in a distillery nearby for the production of ethyl alcohol. In order to ensure regular supply of sugarcane for the sugar mill, the company took interest in the cultivation of sugarcane

by organizing the farmers in the region. The company struck long-term agreements

B ad effects : Sharma et al . (2002) conducted bioassay studies to assess the toxicity of rawand diluted distillery effluent on seed germination, seedling growth and pigment content of sugarbeet by collecting effluent samples from the main hole of the Sri Ganganagar SugarMill factory, in Rajasthan. Seeds kept moist in different dilutions (1, 5, 10, 20 and 30%) of

effluent solution, along with double distilled water, which served as the control revealed thathigher concentrations (>5%) of effluent were found to be toxic, however, the effluent canbe used for irrigation purpose after proper dilution.

with the farmers to buy back their produce and, in turn, took the responsibility of supplying them with water. Much of the water supplied for cultivation was the treated

wastewater from the paper manufacturing operations. The company also used bagassepith (a waste after the paper making) and other combustible agricultural wastes in theregion, as an energy source in their captive power plant. The company had developedan interesting complex of industries, which could be depicted as in Figure 6.

This case study is intended to highlight an alternative corporate planning model, which is compatible with the concepts of Industrial Ecology. Usually, a company plans its growth within a product-market matrix. It tries to define its business as specifically as possible such that its energies in acquisition of capabilities and skills areclearly focused. Many organizations would be reluctant to enter into areas unfamiliarto them. Environmental issues are often seen as secondary to the main goals of thecompany.

A model where a company sets up not one, but a complex of diverse industries, where one industry uses the wastes of another, is a viable option for sustainable industrialgrowth in developing countries. The case of SPB also shows that there is ahigh potential for Industrial Ecology in rural areas, where integrated agro-industrialcomplexes can benefit the local community through efficient use of resources.Conclusion
