This fine book is an ideal resource for agronomists, soil scientists, extension agents, sugar technologists, engineers, consultants, human-resource personnel and specialists in the fields of teaching and technical assistance. The book’s twenty-one chapters are organized into three sections: Fourteen chapters cover topics in agricultural management ranging from crop establishment to harvesting. Three chapters are devoted to topics having to do with processing, co-product and effluent management. Four chapters cover social development, community and outgrower topics. Wherever possible, the authors of Good Management Practices have adopted the values of sustainability, ensuring that any recommended management practices comply with the tenets of today’s triple bottom line: 1. Ensuring profitable production while maintaining and improving production resources; 2. Minimizing or avoiding detrimental impacts to the environment, both on- and off-site; and 3. Ensuring that production takes place in a socially equitable environment UR - https://sugarindustry.info/app/uploads/2022/03/GMP_contents.pdf UR - https://unica.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/good-management-practices-manual-for-the-cane-sugar-industry.pdf ER -
