Hi folks! I'm still a cane player also. I know that the 2 largest companies, Rico and Vandoren are always looking for the right climates. For example Rico invested in land located in several places, Argentina, France of course, and California. Also in Spain. I know that Vandoren had or still has cane fields right next to Rico in Argentina. Vandoren of course has fields in France.

Many years ago Vandoren ran out of cane. Bernard Vandoren went to Rico and Rico helped them out. Yes I met Bernard when he visited Rico and he's a very nice man. Also, both companies have cane fields next to each other in France.

So this still a great subject. I don't think we have to worry anytime soon. Both companies are always working together to a point, investing and planting in new fields.

I'm actually worried about wood for clarinets. It's getting a bit scarce, the quality of wood is not as good as it was in the 1960's. We need to keep horns as long as possible and take great care of them. Getting the horns checked at least once a year, twice a year is much better. The keys need to be oiled every month with heavier weighted oils, avoid key oil, it's too thin. The bores should be checked as well.
