2013-2014 Sugar Cane Crop Season off to a good start

2014-01-28 07:37:12| Sugar Industry News

The 2013-2014 Sugar Cane Crop Season got off to a late start this past Friday after months of delay. The cane farmers and the Belize Sugar Industries were at odds since September of last year after the Belize Sugar Cane Farmers Association walked away from the negotiation table when B.S.I. refused to entertain any discussions with farmers about compensation for bagasse. Because of the delay, the industry lost more than ten million dollars and in mid January, both parties finally signed an interim agreement to jumpstart the season. The quota for cane delivery to the mills at Tower Hill is one point two million tons of sugar cane for the season. While in Orange Walk today, News Five got an update from the B.S.C.F.A.\'s Alfredo Ortega on cane deliveries. He says based on the past three days, Ortega says the prognosis is good.
