Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relation of Applied Science to Sugar Production in Hawaii: A Report Hawaii ranks third among the countries supplying cane sugar to the markets of the world. Cuba and Java take first and second That the output of both Cuba and Java is far in excess of that of Hawaii is graphically told by the accompanying chart, and is readily accounted for by the more advantageous conditions under which the industry in these foreign islands is Operated. It might be concluded at first thought, because these three widely separated island localities are to the forefront in catering to the demand for cane sugar, that their success is due to some favored conditions with which they have been endowed in com mon against the rest of the world lying within equivalent lati This is not the case. The culti 'al)le areas of Cuba. Java and Hawaii are but the smallest fraction of the total frost-free tillable areas of the globe. To enter fully into an explanation of why the cane sugar industry has attained ascendancy on these islands would be to trace the sociological and political upheavals that have affected the decline of cane sugar production, first in the countries around the Mediterranean, afterwards in Brazil, San Domingo. The British Indies and other districts where, to go back to early history, there w'ere promising cane sugar outlooks. It suffices for the present, however, to show that the survival of sugar production in Cuba, in Java, and in Hawaii is due to separate and distinct causes. For the-industries of the three districts are built upon totally dissimilar foundations. The mainstay of sugar production in Cuba is the abundance of cheap lands.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although little remains of Hawai‘i’s plantation economy, the sugar industry’s past dominance has created the Hawai‘i we see today. Many of the most pressing and controversial issues—urban and resort development, water rights, expansion of suburbs into agriculturally rich lands, pollution from herbicides, invasive species in native forests, an unsustainable economy—can be tied to Hawai‘i’s industrial sugar history. Sovereign Sugar unravels the tangled relationship between the sugar industry and Hawai‘i’s cultural and natural landscapes. It is the first work to fully examine the complex tapestry of socioeconomic, political, and environmental forces that shaped sugar’s role in Hawai‘i. While early Polynesian and European influences on island ecosystems started the process of biological change, plantation agriculture, with its voracious need for land and water, profoundly altered Hawai‘i’s landscape. MacLennan focuses on the rise of industrial and political power among the sugar planter elite and its political-ecological consequences. The book opens in the 1840s when the Hawaiian Islands were under the influence of American missionaries. Changes in property rights and the move toward Western governance, along with the demands of a growing industrial economy, pressed upon the new Hawaiian nation and its forests and water resources. Subsequent chapters trace island ecosystems, plantation communities, and natural resource policies through time—by the 1930s, the sugar economy engulfed both human and environmental landscapes. The author argues that sugar manufacture has not only significantly transformed Hawai‘i but its legacy provides lessons for future outcomes.

Download or read book From King Cane to the Last Sugar Mill written by C. Allan Jones and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2015-03-31 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From King Cane to the Last Sugar Mill focuses on the technological and scientific advances that allowed Hawai‘i’s sugar industry to become a world leader and Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar Company (HC&S) to survive into the twenty-first century. The authors, both agricultural scientists, offer a detailed history of the industry and its contributions, balanced with discussion of the enormous societal and environmental changes due to its aggressive search for labor, land, and water. Sugarcane cultivation in Hawai‘i began with the arrival of Polynesian settlers, expanded into a commercial crop in the mid-1800s, and became a significant economic and political force by the end of the nineteenth century. Hawai‘i’s sugar industry entered the twentieth century heralding major improvements in sugarcane varieties, irrigation systems, fertilizer use, biological pest control, and the use of steam power for field and factory operations. By the 1920s, the industry was among the most technologically advanced in the world. Its expansion, however, was not without challenges. Hawai‘i’s annexation by the United States in 1898 invalidated the Kingdom’s contract labor laws, reduced the plantations’ hold on labor, and resulted in successful strikes by Japanese and Filipino workers. The industry survived the low sugar prices of the Great Depression and labor shortages of World War II by mechanizing to increase productivity. The 1950s and 1960s saw science-driven gains in output and profitability, but the following decades brought unprecedented economic pressures that reduced the number of plantations from twenty-seven in 1970 to only four in 2000. By 2011 only one plantation remained. Hawai‘i’s last surviving sugar mill, HC&S—with its large size, excellent water resources, and efficient irrigation and automated systems—remained generally profitable into the 2000s. Severe drought conditions, however, caused substantial operating losses in 2008 and 2009. Though profits rebounded, local interest groups have mounted legal challenges to HC&S’s historic water rights and the public health effects of preharvest burning. While the company has experimented with alternative harvesting methods to lessen environmental impacts, HC&S has yet to find those to be economically viable. As a result, the future of the last sugar company in Hawai‘i remains uncertain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main object of this study is to trace the growth of capital on sugar plantations in Hawaii from 1870 to 1957. Capital growth is related to numbers of workers employed and to net output in order to obtain ratios of capital to output and capital to labor. The study ends with a short review of the financing of Hawaiian sugar. It concludes that the industry has been able to finance not only itself but to invest relatively large amounts in other domestic and foreign enterprises.
