sugar cane field
Tropical crop rows
A sugar cane field is agricultural land planted with sugar cane—the tall tropical grass cultivated for its sweet juice, which is processed into sugar.
The phrase typically evokes images of plantation agriculture in warm climates: Workers harvested the sugar cane fields by hand.
Sugar cane fields figure prominently in the history of slavery and colonial economies.
