Current paper analyzes practices of sustainable management in sugar cane culture. What management practices may be developed for the sustainability of sugar cane culture? Quality research analyzing a case in the northeastern region of Brazil identifies management practices for the improvement of the sugar cane production process; demonstrates the environmental and social impacts caused by sugar cane culture; provides gains obtained by mechanization of the harvest. Results show that there was a historical evolution in cane extraction and for a more sustainable production. Research has also registered that investing in sustainability is high, albeit valid, and presents gains in productivity, client acknowledgment and openness to international markets.Downloads
