Procurement of sugarcane is the first step in the process and then levelling of sugarcane is done using preparatory devices. In these devices, the sugarcane is crushed. Then the crushed sugarcane moves to the mill where salvarizers, shredder, fibrizer are present where the sugarcanes are chopped into small pieces, crushed and the juice is extracted. The dry waste obtained from this process is used for power production, thereby reducing wastage in the process. The sugarcane juice extracted is then processed using a clarifier in a boiling operation at 80oC -100oC. Then the output in the form of plasma is boiled and heated under vacuum at 100 degree Celsius in order to absorb all moisture content in it and finally sugar crystals are produced. This crystal is again heated at 120 degree Celsius and milk of lime and sulphur dioxide is added simultaneously in order to get clean white sugar. The by-product molasses are taken to the distillery unit for producing spirit. The final white crystals are packed in a bag of 25kgs and sent to the warehouse. It takes approximately 2 days to get white crystal sugar.

We reached the factory at 11.a.m as soon as we reached Mr.Mahesh, the Supervisor oriented the students about the factory workings and the production process of sugar. He explained the entire process of sugar production. We came to know that NSL Sugars Ltd. provides livelihood to around thousands of families of sugarcane growers and livelihood to about 3000 families by directly involving in plant operations and indirectly 5000 families by involving them in harvesting and transportation of sugarcane. Procurement of sugarcane is the first step in the process and then levelling of sugarcane is done using preparatory devices. In these devices, the sugarcane is crushed. Then the crushed sugarcane moves to the mill where salvarizers, shredder, fibrizer are present where the sugarcanes are chopped into small pieces, crushed and the juice is extracted. The dry waste obtained from this process is used for power production, thereby reducing wastage in the process. The sugarcane juice extracted is then processed using a clarifier in a boiling operation at 80oC -100oC. Then the output in the form of plasma is boiled and heated under vacuum at 100 degree Celsius in order to absorb all moisture content in it and finally sugar crystals are produced. This crystal is again heated at 120 degree Celsius and milk of lime and sulphur dioxide is added simultaneously in order to get clean white sugar. The by-product molasses are taken to the distillery unit for producing spirit. The final white crystals are packed in a bag of 25kgs and sent to the warehouse. It takes approximately 2 days to get white crystal sugar.

Objective: To get exposure about the complete process of coffee Curing & manufacturing.
Places/Industry Visited: Visit to Sri Uma Coffee Curing Works Private limited plot no.8, KIADB industrial area, kudlur Kushalnagar, Karnataka 571234
Uma coffee works was established in 1994. Mr. Sreedhar.A was the founder of Uma coffee trading. In 2006 a coffee processing unit started and then it was renamed as Uma coffee works. In 2019 a new division of roast and ground coffee was started and currently Uma air roasted coffee work is the one of the most successful coffee works in Karnataka
Total 46 Students were taken to the unit to understand the manufacturing process. First, the coffee seeds are peeled and the inner part of coffee seeds are taken out and separated into two different processes.
The beans are then dried by the sun or a machine to be put into a huller which removes the remaining covering. The polished beans (called green coffee) are then ready to be sorted by hand or machine to remove defective beans and extraneous material, and finally to be graded by size. The drying operation is the most important stage of the process, since it affects the final quality of the green coffee. A coffee that has been over dried will become brittle and produce too many broken beans during hulling (broken beans are considered defective beans).
In the next process the coffee seeds are taken to a roasting process where the seeds will be roasted into brownish color. And in the final process, the roasted coffee seeds are ground into powder and left for cooling for some time. Later the coffee powder is packed. The coffee machine runs 24hours a day and it functions every day.
The visit was aimed to connect the concepts of Methods and Techniques of Cost Accounting taught in the classroom.

Objective: To get exposure about working of sugar industry.
Places/Industry Visited: Visit to National Sugar Industries Limited Madhur, Mysore Road Bangalore.
NSL Sugars Limited (NSL) is one of the most efficient integrated sugar companies in south India and a sugar arm of ‘NSL’ group. It was established as an associate company of NSL group in the year of 2003-04 with the vision that the real scope for economic activity lies in agro-based Industry in rural India.

Firstly, they took the students to the blend station where tons of sugarcane was dumped into the transferring station, which was then transferred to the chopping station. Once the sugarcane was chopped, they were taken to the next process where the chopped sugarcane is crushed to extract juice. The extracted juice is then heated and melted to the stage of brown sugar. The brown sugar is again boiled to a point where it turns black in colour. Then, it is transferred into a rotating container, till the color changes to white due to vaporization of the liquid state, where the white sugar is generated. White sugar was shifted to packaging unit, weighing 50 kilos per bag. The entire process would take 12 hours to complete a process and the machines run 24 hours a day. The visit aimed to give a practical exposure on the Methods and Techniques of Cost Accounting.

Name of the company visited: NSL Sugars Limited
Name and details of the company: NSL Sugars Limited (NSL) is one of the most efficient integrated sugar companies in south India and a sugar arm of ‘NSL’ group. NSL Group entered the ‘sugar’ industry as part of their diversified interests in agro-commercial crop business.
NSL Sugars Ltd was established as an associate company of NSL group in the year of 2003-04 with the vision that the real scope for economic activity lies in agro-based Industry in rural India. Today, NSL Sugars is amongst the top ten sugar companies in India with five integrated sugar complexes across Karnataka, Telangana & Maharashtra states producing sugar (27000 TCD), Cogeneration power (152MW), Distillery (280 KLPD) and organic manure products & Bio fertilizer products (300 MTPA).
All plants are located in South India with proximity to air / sea ports to support refining operations during off-season. All these five integrated plants are strategically located with better cane availability prospects, higher yields & recovery rates and relatively easier regulatory environment. This would be an important value/profitability driver for the growth prospects of the company. Strong farmer relationships of the Group are another key lever in the cane development potential of the Company.
Zero waste plants mean that all by-products generated are further processed into saleable products.
Molasses, Bagasse and Press mud, which are the by-products of the sugar manufacturing process, are converted into Ethanol / Rectified Spirit, Power and Organic manure products respectively.
Enabling the socio – economic development of our farmers.
By adopting rigid air pollution control measures, the company has entered into Clean Development Mechanism and Carbon Credit agreement with international organization.
Objective of the visit: To enable the students to observe and learn how manufacturing of sugar takes place in a factory in a systematic manner and get an in-depth understanding of Management Process.
Supervisor Mahesh explained the process of making sugar. He went through a detailed process of making sugar. Beginning with the sugarcane harvest, NSL Sugar Limited provides direct agricultural income to thousands of sugarcane farmers and about 3,000 families, transporting over 5,000 families through plant operations and indirect collections.
