Cane harvesting machines are very complicated devices, and they are often not owned by the farmers. At harvesting time, they come to your property and harvest everything in a short time, often half a day. And Australia is still using cane tramways to cart the cane to the sugar mill. These days, the harvesters cut the cane into short lengthsa, wereas in the early times it was harvested full length. When a contractor comes to cut your cane, the mill will place a full train of empty cut cane bins on a siding, and the contractors fill the bins from the hoppers that collect the cane from the harvester.
Watching big time wheat harvesting is even more amazing here, often they will run around 12 harvesters, side by side, and staggered about 10 metres behind each other. They harvest huge wheat fileds in no time at all.
I guess some of the vast farms over there are bigger than an entire county over here |
