THE Albion/Port Mourant Estate has surpassed its weekly production target for the fifth time, the Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo) reported on Wednesday.
According to a release, the target was surpassed for the week ending October 15, 2022.

Factory Manager (ag), Mohammed Sheriff said the achievement was possible due to the factory time efficiency of 97 per cent against a budget of 93 per cent and minimal downtime of 2.5 hours for the week.
The release noted that also contributing to this achievement is the cane quality, with Pol extraction of 10 per cent, versus 9.87 per cent budgeted, resulting in an improved Tonnes Cane to Tonnes Sugar (Tc/Ts) ratio of 11 per cent versus the budgeted 13 per cent.

“Qualified workers who worked 80 per cent or more days available for that week will continue to benefit from the weekly production incentive scheme, which allows tax-free incentives when an estate achieves its weekly production target. The Executive Management congratulates the management and workers of Albion/Port Mourant Estate and urges all of the grinding estates to strive towards the achievement of the weekly production incentive. Management also implores workers to remain focused and committed to achieving their weekly targets,” the release concluded.
