Testimonials > Douw Hurter
Sugar Cane Grower in South Africa
South African Lowveld sugar cane grower, Douw Hurter says his Valley Center Pivots are the best way he's found to apply water and allocate labor in sugar cane farming.

"With center pivots,
we can produce three good crops in the time
you might get two crops without irrigation." |
"Dryland sugar cane can take 18-24 months to produce any kind of crop at all. With center pivots, we can produce three good crops in the time you might get two crops without irrigation."
"We switched from furrow irrigation to drag lines to center pivots, so we've seen what each can do. Without a doubt, center pivots give us a better sugar cane crop and let us reduce the number of workers devoted on to irrigation. Because we have more control of the water, we're not wasting a single drop." |
