For us here, one acre takes about 12-14 months from planting to harvest, but payment from the mill? Arre, that’s the real wait! We get paid in instalments, sometimes stretching for over a year after we’ve delivered the cane. My own 50 acres mean I’m always juggling old dues and new expenses—last season’s final payment came just as we were preparing the field again, yaar. It’s not just about the crop cycle, it’s the credit cycle that truly tests a farmer’s patience.
