CANEGROWERS CEO Dan Galligan has described the announcement that MSF Sugar’s Mulgrave Mill will no longer crush Mossman cane as deeply disappointing news for the Mossman district and the wider sugar industry.
It’s that time of the year again, when Queensland’s cane-growing communities come alive with the sounds of harvesters, haulouts, cane trucks and trains.
Our perceptions can, and often do, change over time.
Building a brighter future for Queensland’s sugarcane industry will be top of the agenda when more than 100 growers and industry leaders gather in Mackay this week for the inaugural Sugar Cubed conference.
The time for talking is over! Immediate, large-scale, effective action is what’s required if we’re to have any hope of halting the march of Red Imported Fire Ants, CANEGROWERS Chairman Owen Menkens has said.
National Farmers’ Federation President David Jochinke will get a taste of the sweet life when he visits the heart of Queensland sugarcane country this week.
