sugarcane farming
Tropical stalk cultivation
Sugarcane farming is the agricultural cultivation of sugarcane, a tall tropical grass grown primarily for sugar production.
The crop requires warm temperatures, abundant water, and a long growing season.
Harvesting involves cutting the cane stalks, which are then processed to extract sucrose.
Major sugarcane-producing regions include Brazil, India, and the Caribbean.
