2016 OUTLOOK
Looking ahead, the Plantation Division will continue to tap
into CMAA’s rich experience and adopt useful agronomic
practices on cane cultivation technologies and know-how.
On the mechanisation front, we are progressively applying
advanced methodologies and deploying mechanised sugar-
cane harvesters and planters across our estates in Indonesia.
Global sugar prices are likely to remain strongly influenced
by production levels in major producing countries such as
Brazil and India, together with Brazilian policies on ethanol.
This will be key to a reversal of the high global stocks, leading
to a price recovery.
