    This document discusses the sugar manufacturing process in Pakistan. It involves harvesting sugarcane, transporting it, extracting juice via crushing and milling, clarifying the juice, evaporating and crystallizing it, and centrifuging to separate raw sugar and molasses. Bagasse is used as fuel and molasses is a byproduct.
