Comments:
The Burdekin mills processed just over 365,000 tonnes of cane for the week, which exceeded budget. No time was lost for wet weather.
The season-to-date total is now 6.85M tonnes, which represents 84 per cent of the Burdekin region’s crop forecast of 8.20M tonnes.
The average weekly CCS was 14.37, which is now below budget forecasts.
The highest CCS of 17.1, was from a rake of Q183 2R in the Mulgrave (INV) productivity district.
Remember to stay alert, use your train brain and always give way to cane trains at road crossings.
