Where burly cane cutters once toiled, voracious machines now rattle through Australia's vast sugar cane fields, gathering in hours what once took weeks. Since the 1960s when a new breed of machines ushered in a dynamic new era of low cost, reliable cane harvesting, mechanization has played a vital role in Australia's emergence as a world power in sugar production and exporting. Success has not come easily. The story of how Australians conceived and built the world's first and still the best practical sugar cane harvesters is as much about dogged perseverance as it is about creative genius. They're All Half Crazy is a fascinating account of grand dreams and harsh reality, human frailty and mechanical perversity, progress and disappointment.
Despite countless setbacks, Australian men and women over more than a century held firm to the belief that a universal cane harvester was not only achievable but inevitable. As a result, no other country can match Australia's achievements in mechanization of the cane harvest. Published by CANEGROWERS, the organization which represents the growing side of the Australian sugar industry, this book traces the development of mechanization from the first patent in 1888 and the first harvester actually built in 1890 up to the present. It describes the incredibly diverse range of machines developed over the past century. As well as looking at where we've come from, it ponders what the future may bring. They're All Half Crazy is not only about machines, it is also about people and the hardships they endured and the sacrifices they made. In words and pictures, the authors have recorded the successes and the failures of all the key players in sugar cane mechanization. This book is an invaluable historical record of a dynamic period in the nation's history. It should be read by all who wish to understand better why Australia has become one of the world's largest sugar exporters and the undisputed leader in sugar cane harvesting technology.
