Louisiana Sugarcane is an outlet providing information to the public about the Louisiana sugarcane industry. Sponsored by the American Sugar Cane League, the group is a non-profit organization of Louisiana sugar cane growers and processors. Incorporated in 1922, the Louisiana sugar industry was, at that time, threatened with extinction by cane diseases. The primary purpose of the organization at its inception was to provide the industry with an adequate research program to combat the decline of sugar cane yields. Today, the League's main functions continue to be research, along with legislation, product promotion, education and public relations.
