ABOUT US

We are dedicated purveyors of efficient and cost-effective farming services. We address two main challenges in the Philippine sugarcane industry: high production costs and inadequate financial capacity to buy and operate equipment effectively.

The industry previously relied on traditional sugarcane harvesting, loading, and hauling methods. The process involved manual mechanisms, from hiring numerous transient sugarcane cutters to slicing and cleaning sugarcane stalks to loading them onto smaller trucks. Sugarcane plantation owners needed access to farming equipment that would help improve and maximize their operations.

The processes and machinery at CaneX Farm Solutions, Inc. are efficient and effective. We study our clients’ needs based on the conditions of their farms via research, collaboration, and modernization of our mechanizations. Our engineers perform immediate and appropriate modifications to ensure that our harvesters, loaders, and trucks can operate and survive in extreme environments. Our equipment is appropriate for smaller, non-contiguous fields and the lengthy space between sugarcane plants. We pioneered the “drag and drop” farming model in the country that shortens the hauling process to as little as one day compared to the previous time of two to three days. Our machines are designed not to eliminate manual labor but to increase overall efficiency by up to 300%.

CaneX is committed to delivering innovation and enhancing the practices of the locals while promoting practical farming solutions in the community. We involve the planters, farmers, and workers. Not only do the farmers and their families know better than we do about nature and its surroundings—they also inform us of how we can tailor our technology and services to their needs.
