In the 2024 - 2025 sugarcane crop, Song Con Sugarcane Joint Stock Company has nearly 6,000 hectares of raw sugarcane in the districts of Tan Ky, Do Luong, Yen Thanh, Anh Son, Thanh Chuong, Con Cuong, of which Tan Ky district has the most, with more than 4,500 hectares. From November 26, the Company started purchasing sugarcane for people, officially entering the new crushing season. In the photo: Harvesting raw sugarcane in the field of Nghia Dong commune (Tan Ky).

Harvesting sugarcane by machine is very fast and regular, cutting close to the base, the top is ground and covered over the field. Sugarcane stalks are also cut to about 20cm long. Sugarcane is transported directly to the factory as it is cut, saving time and importantly ensuring the weight and sugar content are not reduced. Photo: Xuan Hoang

Sugarcane growers said that to harvest 1 hectare of sugarcane, equivalent to about 70 - 80 tons of sugarcane, it takes dozens of people to cut sugarcane in 1 day. Of course, it is not easy to hire dozens of people at the same time, so 1 hectare of sugarcane usually takes 2-3 days to harvest. Taking a long time to harvest will affect the quality of the sugarcane such as: reducing weight, sugar content. Meanwhile, 1 hectare of sugarcane harvested by machine takes less than 1 day to be transported to the factory. Photo: Xuan Hoang

When the sugarcane truck was full and headed straight to the factory, another truck would immediately come in to replace it. And so, within a day, a harvesting machine was operating at full capacity. Photo: Xuan Hoang

The sugarcane harvester has a maximum capacity of 100 tons of sugarcane per day. When operating, a sugarcane truck runs parallel to the sugarcane cutter, collecting each piece of sugarcane that has been cut into regular portions. Behind the sugarcane cutter, a layer of sugarcane shoots and chopped by-products is discharged. Photo: Xuan Hoang

Mr. Nguyen Ba Quy - Deputy Director of Song Con Sugarcane Joint Stock Company said: This year, the Company purchases raw sugarcane from the field for farmers at the price of 1,120,000 VND/ton for sugarcane with 10 CCS or more; 1,080,000 VND/ton for sugarcane with 9 - under 10 CCS; 1,045,000 VND/ton for sugarcane with sugar content under 9 CCS. Compared to last year, this year's price is not significantly lower, due to the decrease in sugar prices on the market. However, in the first 10 days of the season (from November 26 to December 6), the Company purchased an additional 30,000 VND/ton.
