Every year, millions of tons of sugarcane are harvested around the world. After harvest and processing, the material often left behind is bagasse – a fibrous material that has often been treated as waste, burned for energy, or left to decompose.

At Jiffy, they saw something different. They saw potential.

Jiffy Bagasse is not a new product on its own, but a sustainable, peat-free raw material designed to be part of your substrate mixes. Blended with other components, it helps create growing media that perform well for a wide range of crops – from bedding plants and houseplants to nursery stock.

With sugarcane being the largest crop by mass globally, bagasse offers a consistent, renewable, and widely available resource. It is also a cost-effective alternative to coco pith, with a reliable year-round supply less affected by weather conditions.

By adding Jiffy Bagasse into their mixes, growers can reduce reliance on peat and take a step toward more sustainable horticulture – without compromising the quality and consistency their crops demand.

This is how Jiffy helps give sugarcane a second life – and supports growers in cultivating a greener future, one plant at a time.
