The imposition of the protective duties agaist the import of sugar was not taken avantage of by the Tanjore farmer.though it has been utilised very profitability by the farmers and industrialists in Northern India.bout three years ago different varieties of cane were planted in the wet fields of the Government Aduthurai Farm.where the land is a flat level block that does not drain quickly after a heavy rain.As the results were encouraging,here and there some farmers grew sugarcane.with varying success.The failures were due,as I have since ascertained .in their not adopting the correct method of ultivation as also to the unsuitable choice of land.
