Months after being uprooted to facilitate housing infrastructure, the Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo) field research programme has been relocated to Blairmont, West Coast Berbice.
Sources within the corporation told Stabroek News the field research programme was officially moved to Blairmont last month.
Currently, over 20 hectares have been cultivated with varietal sugarcane as the programme resumes. A total of 50 hectares have been set aside for the programme. The occupancy of land by the programme will not interfere with the Blairmont Estate cultivation, as the source explained the land now occupied was previously abandoned.
