Mothballed Goa sugar mill seen coming online next year for ethanol production

In India, the Press Trust of India reports that the mothballed sugarcane mill in Goa is set to come back online in the next year to produce much-needed ethanol. Companies interested in restarting the Sanjivani Sugar Factory that has been offline since 2019 are being sought through a Request For Qualification process that has just opened through the state’s agricultural department. Cane farmers have been paid more than $3.6 million since the mill closed four years ago.
