A farmer trims leaves of sugar cane at a plantation in Suphan Buri province. A number of issues have hindered the use of combine harvesters and other high-tech harvesting machinery in the Asean sugar sector. This growth will be the result of recovery from drought, sugar cane yield improvements and strong export opportunities. The largest foreign manufacturers of sugar cane combine harvesters used in the country include John Deere, Cameo and Case IH. This will be supported by increased use of combine harvesters in the sugar sector in other Southeast Asian countries.
