The sugarcane harvester 3 comprises lower feed rollers and upper feed rollers configured to feed cut sugarcane 4 through the sugarcane harvester. An elevator is configured to transport sugarcane 5 out of the sugarcane harvester at an elevator speed. The control system controls 6 the elevator speed based on a crop mass flow through the plurality of lower and 7 upper feed rollers. The control system comprises at least one crop mass flow 8 feedback device providing a crop mass flow feedback signal indicative of the crop 9 mass flow. A controller is in communication with the at least one crop mass flow 0 feedback device and configured to lower the elevator speed when the crop mass 1 flow feedback signal indicates a lower crop mass flow and raise the elevator speed 2 when the crop mass flow feedback signal indicates a higher crop mass flow. 102/3 0 0 0 0 LO 0 LO LO LO LO C) C) 0 0 0 LO LO 0 (D LO LL LO o C) LO 0 rl- 0 C) 0 0 LO 0 LO C) LO C) 0 0 Q
