Smartcane BMP

Smartcane BMP – document stewardship, improve your bottom line

It has become more critical to maintain the correct records as the Queensland Government enforces this through legislation, but Smartcane BMP offers more than that. Once registered, growers can work at their own pace to achieve accreditaton.

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.

We’ve focused on the three core modules of BMP so growers can become accredited and be independently recognised for their management of soil health and nutrients, irrigation and drainage, and weeds, pests and diseases.

• Soil Health and Nutrition Management
• Weed, Pest and Disease Management
• Irrigation and Drainage Management

Becoming accredited in these modules remains the gold standard for Smartcane BMP. And we’ll continue to focus on supporting growers to assess their practices, and collect and collate farm records and other required evidence to achieve accreditation.

The sugar supply chain and the finance sector increasingly look to Smartcane BMP to assure them of growers’ sustainability performance, thereby helping these businesses meet the sustainability expectations of markets and investors.

Registering and self-assessing is the first step and you can do this online at www.smartcane.com.au
