The main sugar union, GAWU yesterday said that there is an urgent need to strengthen the management of GuySuCo.

In a press release, the Guyana Agricultural and General Workers Union (GAWU) lambasted a two-page statement by GuySuCo in the last Sunday Stabroek which mainly dealt with the need for articulated tractors versus fixed-frame types. The Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo) said in the statement that a one-year experimentation had proved that articulated tractors were better for preparing beds for mechanical harvesting.

Dubbing the GuySuCo statement as intended to mislead, GAWU yesterday identified a number of areas where it remained at odds with the corporation in relation to tillage and the temporary abandonment of productive lands.
