<em>While sugar in some form is essential for our survival, we do need to make a serious attempt to wean ourselves away from its industrial manufacture<br />
</em><br />
The recent spate of farmer suicides in Karnataka and Maharashtra is yet another episode in the endless crisis that grips agrarian India. But the woes of the sugarcane farmers in the Mandya and Marathwada regions can also be placed under the extremely long shadow cast by the global history of sugar itself.<br />
<br />
Unlike many tropical regions which used sugar extracted from cane as a sweetener, large parts of Europe traditionally relied on honey which was in limited supply. By the seventeenth century, the Europeans who colonised vast territories found that the tropical lands in the western hemisphere were eminently suited for sugarcane. But growing and harvesting cane involved hard, backbreaking labour and local manpower was scarce or unavailable. The solution to this problem was outrageously simple &ndash; the enslavement of Africans. The Atlantic slave trade brought great sorrow to the African continent and its people. It also made many slave owners immensely wealthy and provided ordinary Europeans with an abundant supply of cheap sugar.<br />

The recent spate of farmer suicides in Karnataka and Maharashtra is yet another episode in the endless crisis that grips agrarian India.

Unlike many tropical regions which used sugar extracted from cane as a sweetener, large parts of Europe traditionally relied on honey which was in limited supply.

While sugar in some form is essential for our survival, we do need to make a serious attempt to wean ourselves away from its industrial manufacture

Unlike many tropical regions which used sugar extracted from cane as a sweetener, large parts of Europe traditionally relied on honey which was in limited supply. By the seventeenth century, the Europeans who colonised vast territories found that the tropical lands in the western hemisphere were eminently suited for sugarcane. But growing and harvesting cane involved hard, backbreaking labour and local manpower was scarce or unavailable. The solution to this problem was outrageously simple – the enslavement of Africans. The Atlantic slave trade brought great sorrow to the African continent and its people. It also made many slave owners immensely wealthy and provided ordinary Europeans with an abundant supply of cheap sugar.
