4th cane payment brought forward by FSC upon request from Sugar Cane Growers Council

The Fiji Sugar Corporation says they have taken Sugar Cane Growers Council’s request on board to bring forward the fourth cane payment which is due at the end of May.

The FSC says they will see what can be done to help and payment details will be announced as soon as all planning is complete.

The Sugar Cane Growers Council’s Acting Chief Executive, Sunil Chaudhry had told Fijivillage that early payment will bring some relief for everyone. He says many children and relatives of sugarcane farmers who were working in hotels and resorts are now totally relying on cane income.
