Since January the eight managerial units of base (UEB) specialized in the production of the graminea accumulate 13 647 hectares with the seeds watered in the fields, outcome that represents only 65 per cent of what was planned till now.

In accordance with the Sugar Company Camagüey, the entities Siboney and Carlos Manuel de Céspedes, with a light delay each one, are the only ones with possibilities of conquering the annual plan and perhaps also the "Cándido González".

Nevertheless, the sugar plants Ignacio Agramonte, Argentina, Panama and Batalla de las Guásimas have an advance lower than the provincial average.

Sugar specialists think that the situation limits the intention of the province of shortening the treatment of the areas with very low agricultural outcomes or of reincorporating to this management many others without the cultivation because they are infected of weeds, mainly marabou.

In this moment the territory is provided with only 1 160 furrowed hectares, low ground fund to accelerate the plantation when there is moisture in the soils for the rains of the last days that offer major germination to the seeds.
