*******************
The state of Florida bought the cane farms years ago with the intention of shutting them down ,, I’m not sure of what happened to that plan but “protecting” those farms isn’t the only reason we have the sugar import duties ,,, there are only a few cane farmers ... the import duties support the corn belt farms and their corn syrup prices....
