182 mills have to FRP of ₹9,148 crore, of which ₹7,115 crore has been paid
Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghatana (SSS) has demanded that the State government must take action against sugar mills that have failed to pay Fair and Remunerative Price (FRP) to farmers.
Sugar mills in Maharashtra have crushed 709 lakh sugarcane to produce 716 lakh quintals of sugar. Till last month about 22 per cent FRP was due.
SSS submitted a memorandum to State Sugar Commissioner Shekhar Gaikwad saying that many sugar mills have breached the promise to pay the one-time FRP and are giving the amount in phases, while many mills have not paid any FRP to farmers.

Financial Express reports the Maharashtra State Cooperative Sugar Factories Federation (MSCSFF) has urged sugar mills to enter into agreements with farmers offering a four-month window from the receipt of cane for paying fair and remunerative prices (FRP).
Sources close to the federation said this would not only give mills a breathing space to raise funds, but also allow farmers to get paid in time.
Sanjay Khatal, MD, MSCSFF, said the insistence by some farmer bodies for one-time payment of FRP could create problems for mills as their financial situation is not satisfactory.
It is said the total payable FRP was around Rs 4148.33 crore and sugar mills have made 52.28% of the payment. FRP arrears to farmers are now Rs 1,979.56 crore.
