| | Sugar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Brown sugars are obtained in the late stages of sugar refining (stopping the refinement before sugar becomes white and free of molasses), or by coating white refined sugar with a cane molasses syrup. |  | | The sugar crystals are removed by a centrifuge and the liquid recycled in the crystalliser stages. |  | | Table sugar is commercially extracted from either sugar cane or sugar beet. |

| | Sugar cane |
 | | The cane plant is a coarse growing member of the grass family with juice or sap high in sugar content. |  | | The mixture of plant sap and water, with the sugar in solution, collected from the roller mills is slightly acid in reaction with a pH of 5 to 5.5. |  | | The culture is essentially the same as for sugar cane and some of the varieties are the same. |

 | | The sugar cane is harvested by self-propelled harvesting machines. |  | | Sugar cane is grown from setts (cuttings from mature cane stalks) which are planted by machines which form a furrow, cut the cane stalks into 40cm pieces, drop them into the furrows, add fertiliser, and cover them with soil. |  | | As the sugar cane grows, it is cultivated to let air and water into the soil and to control weeds. |

 | | The most destructive insects of sugar cane are stem-borers, the larvae of several genera of moths. |  | | Sugar cane was originally grown for the sole purpose of chewing in southeastern Asia and the Pacific. |  | | Sugar cane is a perennial crop which usually produces crops for about 3-6 years before being replanted. |

 | | From this 212,476 tonnes of sugar was produced, down from 239,483 tonnes of sugar in 1991/92. |  | | The processing of sugar cane is one of the vital industries of the country to the extent that small pieces of cane are often found in household refrigerators for chewing. |  | | It has been suggested that sugar cane was first cultivated over 2000 years ago. |

| | Sugar Cane Transport |
 | | Sugar cane is one of the bulkiest of crops. |  | | Unlike all other sugar mill bogie locomotives, the drawgear is attached to the bogies rather than the frames. |  | | The bulky, low-value crop initially restricted manufacture to small mills to which the cane was transported over muddy roads in German wagons and drays hauled by bullocks or horses. |

 | | In the production of crystallized sugar, mature canes anywhere from four to 10 feet in length are field-cut and trucked to processing plants, where steam turbines squeeze the crop for its juice. |  | | A principal source of sucrose, sugar cane is a perennial grass that is believed to have originated in either Southeast Asia or the South Pacific. |  | | Kids who live in tropical and subtropical lands -- from Havana to Maui to Rangoon -- love to chew on fibrous sugar cane for a taste of the flavorful syrup. |

| | Philippines Sugar Cane industry |
 | | Sugar cane is a delicate plant, and there was always a need for plenty of fertilizer, irrigation, and a workforce that would work long hard hours of backbreaking labor without complaint - or without choice, as in the case of slaves. |  | | However, there were many flaws in the sugar system, not the least of which were the extremely inequitable land distribution inherent in a sharecropping system and the dependence on the kindness of strangers (in the form of the Yank's continued subsidization of sugar via the quota system). |  | | Sugar was grown as a subsistence crop long before it was exported. |

 | | Sugar producation was wide-spread on Cyprus and Sicily, and these weren't even considered the best sources of sugar. |  | | Ordinary sugar was available in varying degrees of fineness, although most of it came in the form of 'loaves', which varied in size from about 1 lb. |  | | So valuable was sugar for the economy that the law allowed compulsory purchase of land for it, and water could be taken from whatever source; workers were also bound to the industry by law and were free from arrest during the season when the refineries were working." says Smith's "A History of Sicily. |
