Dear Growers 

In May 2017 correspondence was posted to all growers advising membership levy for the 2017 season would be increased by $0.05 from $0.27 to $0.32 per tonne of sugar cane, capped at 30,000 tonnes.

Due to a system error it was discovered that cane pays as of 22^nd June, 29^th June and 6^th July had grower levies of $0.27 per tonne deducted from proceeds.

This matter has been rectified in subsequent cane payments.

On 19^th July Wilmar has made an adjustment to KCGOL levy of $0.05 per tonne for levy’s paid during the above 3 week period. RCTI issued shows rate as $0.32, however tonnage and actual amount represents this $0.05 adjustment.

Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Should you have any queries in relation to this matter please do not hesitate to contact this office.

Kalamia Members Notice – KCGO Introducing Additional Services

“Morning growers

 Some 6 years ago Kalamia Cane Growers Organisation Ltd offered an additional service to growers who had queries in relation to issues around CCS identified in your “Rake Deliveries” eg. Purity, Dirt and pH etc. Service at this time proved to be of a financial benefit to our members.

 This service has recently been reintroduced and will be trialled over the coming months to gauge its benefits/success. KCGOL has appointed on a casual basis, Monica Nicholson, to assist with growers enquiries as well as to proactively scrutinise “Edit Lab” reports provided by Wilmar in an effort to also identify anomalies requiring further investigation.

 Monica has had a lengthy career within the sugar industry, having in this time completed a 4 year sugar chemistry course, holding positions of juice chemist, control chemist, lab superintendent and been employed by both mill owner and more recently BCAS.

 I would like to strongly encourage all of our members to take advantage of this service. Should you have a query, please do not hesitate to contact this office so that Monica can investigate.

 Thank you

Regards,

Les Elphinstone
