236,706 tonnes of cane crushed so far

236,706 tonnes of cane has been crushed at the three sugar mills so far.

The Labasa Mill has crushed 115,374 tonnes of cane, Lautoka Mill has crushed 65,461 tonnes of cane while Rarawai Mill has crushed 55,872 tonnes.

The FSC says all three mills are now performing optimally with significantly reduced inside stops.

It says weak supply of cane to the mills, particularly at Lautoka Mill remains a concern.
