THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF SUGAR CANE TECHNOLOGISTS (ASSCT) is a society interested in the general study of the cane sugar industry in the United States and the dissemination of information to members of the organization through meetings and publications. The ASSCT is comprised of two major branches, the Florida Division and the Louisiana Division. Members of the ASSCT generally associate themselves with one of two membership groups, Agriculture or Manufacturing. The Agriculture group includes individuals interested principally in the growing and harvesting of sugarcane. The Manufacturing group includes individuals interested primarily in the extraction and processing of sucrose from sugarcane.
