| August 5, 2009 | Trash Raking with Shane McNee | James Leigh |
We are about to start the development of a 7,300 hectares of Sugar Cane plantation farm (Corporacion Miraflores C.A.) using ferti-irrigation (underground dripping hose), in Piura, Peru, South America., to produce 400,000 liters daily of ethanol directly from the stock, without going through sugar and molasses. The mechanical harvesting will be 100% green and we do not have any rain fall to help in the use of the organic matter; the harvesting will yield 1,600 Tons of green trash daily, year around. The green cane harvesting is new for us, and not so easy to handle specially in this kind of conditions with high yields. We would be very grateful if you contact us with somebody in the industry that would share their experience with us on how to handle the Green cane trash blanket (GCTB). If you have any questions please feel free to ask. Thank you, Sincerely yours, James Leigh, Managing Director Servicios Agricolas S.A.C. somate2000@gmail.com |

| Thank you Chris for going to the trouble to try this Lateral move system. How is it going so far? Any repairs? Have the cost comparassions been done Yet?. What other benefits have you found? Even though you have a good paddock layout, how do you think this system will go in the delta with smaller paddocks? I hear a lot of people say over head is too expensive to run compared to flood. What do others think? | ||
