Great bunch of kids, John! Reminds me of a family I knew many years ago. Dad was a big cheese in the dairy industry - had a couple of farms but 6 daughters no sons. Those girls worked like men. Only 1 stayed with the farming for any time but no dole bludgers amongst them. ;-)
I like this channel but mate that is how my 73 year old grand father planted cane no joke even when my 49 year old father was a kid they had billet planters that way of doing it is really old and labour intensive still interesting though.
Thanks for commenting and watching. I understand that the planters have been around a long time I just thought it was interesting that the whole family was doing it. John
I cant provide private information sorry. If you Email me your contact details I will pass them on to the farmer and if he wants to contact you he can. John
Wonderful seeing the whole family all working together. knowing who planted the sugar I use each day, humbles me. thank you kids..
They were all helping how things should be. John
Reminds me of planting tobacco when I was a kid in Kentucky. Very cool farmers making it happen. It is nice to see the kids helping out. Jim in Chile

Yes you should have seen the bits I cut, just about had to tie them up. I think they will have nightmares about it. John
