[OC] Sugarcane was first introduced to Brazil in 1532. Half a millennium later, the country produces over 700M tonnes yearly (roughly the same amount as all of Asia, and 7x the amount produced by Africa)ISBN39393242 t1_j81eroi wrote

i agree, which is also why this label is confusing. why just “north of mexico?” are the plantations in caribbean countries not included, even though they are not at all “north of mexico”? i would imagine they contribute significantly to sugar cane output, possibly even more than mexico or the US.
i only mentioned canada and the US because they are the parts of N.A. north of mexico, but it adds to further confusion about the other regions of N.A
