Comments: The last bin was tipped at 3:43am on Sunday 25 December. The total throughput for the season was 2,000,582 tonnes. This is the fourth highest throughput at Proserpine Mill and the first time since 2005 that the mill has topped two million tonnes. Unfortunately CCS levels were disappointing considering the increased tonnage. All sectors of the local sugar industry are to be applauded for their excellent efforts in getting this big crop off the ground and through the mill, especially during such a weather challenged year. Congratulations to growers, harvesting contractors, haul-out operators and mill employees for successfully reaching the end of a long and challenging season.
