Plantation Director General Achmad Mangga Barani declared stocks of sugar there is no problem because there is still considerable reserves, let alone some factories keep doing milling.

"Indeed some of the sugar factory still has not been milled, but most of the sugar factory in Lampung have started grinding. And when it actually already started to go normal. Shifting grinding season that's just from the previous target of early May, but the new can be done end of May. This is just backwards two weeks alone, "he said today.

There are some late period of the sugar mill rollers are mostly located in Central Java and East Java. The problem, Achmad added, if the sugar mills are forced to ground it will not get a good sugar.

With unpredictable weather and rainfall is often high, he added, the sugar factory management will choose not to do rollers.

"If this rain then the yield will be low and transportation will be difficult, given the way in the field there is no good," he said. (Fh)
