Kondigre, resident of
Kagal, Dist: Kolhapur
Appreciate about
SCSSSKL as they have
achieved success from the
efforts made through the
sugar factory for increase
in the production of
sugarcane crop. Timely
crushing of sugarcane is
beneficial for both the
farmers and the factory
and hence, it is necessary
to increase cane crushing
capacity of the factory.
They have not faced any

birth. I have no complaint
about the factory.
14. Shri Avinash Magdum,
resident of Kasaba
Sangaon, Tal: Kagal, Dist:
Kolhapur. –
After expansion, special
efforts should be made to
increase the production of
sugar cane. Sugarcane
plant give highest oxygen,
and hence, increased
production of sugarcane
crop will also increase
emission of oxygen. This
will help to maintain
ecological balance. And
hence, after expansion,
the environmental quality
will improve rather than
degradation.
