Explanation

Uttar Pradesh is India's largest sugarcane-producing state, contributing approximately 40-45% of the country's total sugarcane output. This is due to favorable agro-climatic conditions, extensive canal irrigation systems, and the presence of numerous sugar mills in districts like Saharanpur, Muzaffarnagar, and Meerut. Maharashtra is the second-largest producer.
