CRUSHING UPDATE – DELAYED START DATES
Steve Postma of Wilmar has advised feedback from growers indicates that a continuous supply of suitable quality cane is not likely to be available until the second half of the week ending Saturday 17 June. This is very early feedback from a small number of growers. Cane supply will be reviewed by Wilmar weekly until the crushing starts.
Based on this feedback Wilmar is currently planning to have all factories ready to crush on 13 June, though actual start dates may be later. Plans will be reviewed as Wilma gets better feedback on field conditions.
In order to try to firm up dates as soon as Wilmar can, Logistics Officers will be ringing harvesting groups next week to start gauging when ground conditions will be good enough for a start. We encourage all growers to discuss field conditions with their contractors.”
