Subsequently, they have decided to organise the company into two units one in southern India and one in northern India. The sugar industry workers today are progressively taught and they know about their duties and rights. The executives need to manage them not merely as factors of production; however as people having human pride and dignity. The goal of sugar industry is to change the traditional perspectives of management and labour towards one another and create mutual understanding and co-operation and work towards accomplishment of common goal. Good industrial relations lead to industrial harmony and increase in production sugar industry. Joint consultation among workers and the board paves the way for industrial democracy and they contribute to the growth of the organisation.

‘JUPITER’ sugars India LTD was founded in 1941 in southern India as a private sugar factory. Later it enhanced its production from 1000 TCD to 8500 TCD in the year 1962.  It was amalgamating many subunits and multi locational products into its main unit.  The company has focused its attention on various projects and substantial resources. Subsequently, they have decided to organize the company into two units one in southern India and one in northern India.  Sugar industry is a vital agro industry largely depends on agriculture in India and is extremely accountable for creating a major impact on rural economy in particular and the country's economic status on broad-spectrum. Sugar production has a yield in the Indian subcontinent since ancient times. Then subsequently evolutes around the globe1. Sugarcane is a native of tropical Indian domain and spread over to the vital segments of world. Sugarcane plantation would be carried out twice in every year in India. The majority of the sugar production in India takes at regional sugar mills2. Subsequently in the post independence era India contemplated for overall augmentation of sugar industry3. The Indian sugar industry is independent in its energy needs and further makes additional exportable power through cogeneration. The different byproducts of sugar industry likewise add to the economic development of the nation to advancing various additional industries. Sugarcane has developed as a multi-product crop utilized as an essential raw material for the manufacture of sugar, ethanol, paper, electricity and besides a cogeneration of subsidiary product.

The beet sugar industry is facing several challenges for the future. The climate change is requiring a transition from the traditional fossil fuel to a greenhouse gas neutral energy source. The available possibilities for this purpose will be outlined in this paper. The recent EU sugar market reform has markedly increased the competition between sugar companies and the resulting lower sugar price has a significant impact on the profit margin of sugar production. In order to keep up with these challenges it is key to make an appropriate use of the available opportunities to improve the cost-efficiency of sugar beet processing. The different means to advance the sugar business are better asset utilization, continuous process improvement, introducing innovative process technologies and further developing a sugar factory into a biorefinery with a further valorisation of (co-)products and wherein synergy is obtained between different on-site process operations. Why and how these different available tools can improve the competitiveness of sugar factories will be discussed in detail. A proper combination and choice of the suggested changes and opportunities will enable sugar factories to get prepared for the future.

[On p. 566 ante reference was made to the two kalās or schools of the Viśiṣtâdvaita Vaiṣṇavas—the Teṅgalai and the Vaḍagali. The points of difference in their doctrines are of considerable importance for the study of religion in India, and I have much pleasure in forwarding to the Royal Asiatic Society the enclosed communication from Swārī Gōvindâcārya, himself a follower of the Tengali belief. It may be noted that while each school has numerous adherents in Southern India, the great majority of Vaiṣṇavas of Northern India trace their spiritual descent from Rāmânanda, and profess doctrines akin to those of the Vaḍagalai.—G.

<p>This study aims to describe in general the performance of Wonolangan Sugar Factory and to analyze the comparison of sugarcane farming with a non-sugarcane commodity in the working area of Wonolangan Sugar Factory. Wonolangan Sugar Factory is located in Probolinggo Regency, almost 90% of sugarcane raw material is obtained from Lumajang Regency. Commodities that become competitors and the main choice of farmers to be cultivated are rice, maize, and onion. The data used in this study are primary and secondary data. The sampling method used is purposive with in-depth interview technique. Portrait performance of Wonolangan Sugar Factory in the last 5 years is very fluctuating caused by various factors such as climate impacts that are less supportive, the motivation of farmers to grow sugarcane, government policy in the sugar industry. To maintain the smoothness of the mill in the implementation of milling, Wonolangan Sugar Factory has several strategies both on the farm (garden) and off-farm (sugarcane processing at the factory). Based on the comparison of Sugar Business Result (SHU) of sugarcane and non-sugarcane planting pattern, it appears that the analysis shows that sugarcane farming with one Ratoon Cane (RC) category in paddy field can only compete with the pattern of non-cane maize farming throughout the year in South Sugar Factory Wonolangan.</p>

Pabrik Gula Gunungsari merupakan pabrik gula yang didirikan oleh Handels Vereeniging Amsterdam atau HVA pada awal abad ke-20 Masehi. Pabrik gula yang dimaksudkan untuk menjadi sister factory atau pabrik pendukung dari Pabrik Gula Jatiroto ini merupakan bagian dari rangkaian rencana percobaan HVA dalam merevolusi industri gula di Hindia Belanda. Penelitian bertujuan untuk menganalisis apakah terdapat kesalahan dalam bidang perencanaan pemilihan lokasi pembangunan pabrik gula yang berkaitan dengan berhentinya operasi pabrik gula ini. Metode penelitian bersifat deskriptif dengan penalaran induktif. Data yang dianalisis secara spasial diperoleh dari hasil survei arkeologi di Pabrik Gula Gunungsari dan kajian pustaka. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa ketergantungan yang sangat tinggi akan besarnya modal usaha serta anggapan dapat terpenuhinya target yang terlalu ambisius menyebabkan pemilihan lokasi pembangunan pabrik menjadi suatu hal yang merugikan bagi HVA sendiri. Gunungsari Sugar Factory had been established by Handels Vereeniging Amsterdam or HVA in the early of 20th century. The factory which was intended to be a sister of the Jatiroto Sugar Factory was part of a series of HVA trial plans to revolutionize the sugar industry in the Dutch East Indies. This paper aims to analyze whether there is a failure when selecting the location of the factory related to the cessation of its own operation. This method used is descriptive with inductive reasoning. The data analized in spatial were obtained from the survey conducted at the Gunungsari Sugar Factory and literature review. The results show that high dependence on the amount of venture capital, and the assumption that ambitious targets can be achieved, have made the selection of a factory construction location become a major weakness for HVA.

The main goals for the design of waste water treatment plants are high efficiency, high operational reliability and minimal costs. The challenge to have very low investment costs especially exists for industrial plants which are only in operation for several months every year as e.g. in the beet sugar industry in Central Europe. A case study of an Austrian sugar factory treatment plant shows that using very simple and low-cost structures does not affect the efficiency of the treatment. This factory is also one of the rare cases where biologically treated effluent is recirculated to reduce fresh water consumption. Special emphasis is put on the start-up process, the influence of shock loadings in the influent, and design and operation of the plant.

AbstractThe ‘Out of India’ hypothesis is often invoked to explain patterns of distribution among Southeast Asian taxa. According to this hypothesis, Southeast Asian taxa originated in Gondwana, diverged from their Gondwanan relatives when the Indian subcontinent rifted from Gondwana in the Late Jurassic, and colonized Southeast Asia when it collided with Eurasia in the early Cenozoic. A growing body of evidence suggests these events were far more complex than previously understood, however. The first quantitative reconstruction of the biogeography of Asian forest scorpions (Scorpionidae Latreille, 1802: Heterometrinae Simon, 1879) is presented here. Divergence time estimation, ancestral range estimation, and diversification analyses are used to determine the origins, dispersal and diversification patterns of these scorpions, providing a timeline for their biogeographical history that can be summarized into four major events. (1) Heterometrinae diverged from other Scorpionidae on the African continent after the Indian subcontinent became separated in the Cretaceous. (2) Environmental stresses during the Cretaceous–Tertiary (KT) mass extinction caused range contraction, restricting one clade of Heterometrinae to refugia in southern India (the Western Ghats) and Sri Lanka (the Central Highlands). (3) Heterometrinae dispersed to Southeast Asia three times during India’s collision with Eurasia, the first dispersal event occurring as the Indian subcontinent brushed up against the western side of Sumatra, and the other two events occurring as India moved closer to Eurasia. (4) Indian Heterometrinae, confined to southern India and Sri Lanka during the KT mass extinction, recolonized the Deccan Plateau and northern India, diversifying into new, more arid habitats after environmental conditions stabilized. These hypotheses, which are congruent with the geological literature and biogeographical analyses of other taxa from South and Southeast Asia, contribute to an improved understanding of the dispersal and diversification patterns of taxa in this biodiverse and geologically complex region.

The analysis of management’s and employees’ perceptions is needed to create strategies and policies on sugar industry  waste management based on cleaner production, to reach the concept of cleaner production by reusing, reducing, and recycling waste. The research’s scope is analyzing management’s and employees’ perceptions toward cleaner production principles, that includes Good Housekeeping knowledge aspects, environmental aspect, social-institutional and economical aspects.  The aim of the research is to get strategies and policies on sugar industry waste management based on cleaner production, based on management’s and employees’ perceptions toward the application of waste management based on cleaner production at sugar industry. The research was done in Sei Semayang Sugar Factory, Kwala Sugar Factory, and Tjoekir Sugar Factory. Primary data was tested by Alpha Cronbach and Lickert ordinal scale transformed into interval scale using Successive Interval method. To understand the connectivity between variables, multiple linear regression analysis was used, using SPSS 11.5, and then descriptively analyzed.  Analyzing Sei Semayang Sugar Factory’s management’s and employees’ perception toward cleaner production results in the knowledge that technical aspect is an influential aspect in factory’s efficiency and waste management. Kwala Madu Sugar Factory management’s and employees’ perception is that environmental aspect, Good Housekeeping aspect, technical aspect, and knowledge aspect, are influential toward sugar industry waste management. While Tjoekir sugar factory management’s and employees’ perception is that social institutional and economical aspect is the influential aspect toward sugar industry waste management. Sugar industry waste management based on cleaner production strategy based on management’s and employees’ perception is an integration between technical aspect, environmental aspect, Good Housekeeping aspect, and social institutional and economical aspect.
