Abstract (AB)In order to be more competitive, the cane sugar industry worldwide must improve productivity and especially lower production costs. Recourse must be made to new technologies that have been recently developed in agriculture. The paper examines the advantages and limitations of certain of these innovations, in particular: biotechnology, irrigation methods, fertilizer management, cultural practices, disease and pest control, computer technology, especially the useof GIS for agricultural management. Consideration is also given to environmental protection with technological evolution.
