I have a dataset that is based on crop output for a single crop
*sugarcane*...but
each observation is further subdivided into 3 kinds of sugarcane
i have read the file and have also used melt it to sort it on the
basis of *crop
group* using

 melt(sugarcane, m=c("Crop_group")) -> canefile

this is how it has cast the data

 variable                     value
1 Crop_group  Sugarcane (first ratoon)
2 Crop_group  Sugarcane (planted crop)
3 Crop_group  Sugarcane (planted crop)
4 Crop_group Sugarcane (second ratoon)
5 Crop_group  Sugarcane (first ratoon)
6 Crop_group  Sugarcane (planted crop)


now i need to *cast *the data so  that i can have each of the 20 odd
variables sorted according to the 3 subdivisions under *Crop_group *ie first
ratoon), second ratoon etc etc..

i tried using

cast (canefile, ~value) -> canefile

but it said "Aggregation requires fun.aggregate: length used as default"

i want to cast it on all the 20 variables and sort it on the basis of first
ratoon, second ratoon and planted crop

How i do my CAST command?

I hope my question is clear...thanks in advance
