good farming deserves to be recognised
Your Farm,
Your Way.
Since 2014, Smartcane BMP has been working with growers across Queensland to record and verify their practice improvements. This has helped set the record straight and secure growers’ reputation as stewards of the land.
45% of Queensland Cane Land is accredited in Smartcane BMP
Smartcane BMP is the sugarcane industry’s best management practice program, helping growers assess, improve and demonstrate the way they farm.
It recognises that every farm is different and that best practice needs to work for your farming system, your soil and your local conditions. Through practical support, record keeping and independent accreditation, Smartcane BMP helps growers demonstrate their commitment to productive, sustainable and responsible farming.
