The picture depicts how sugar is produced from sugar cane.

Overall, there are seven steps that constitute the process, beginning with growing sugar cane and
ending with sugar being dried and cooled in a storage drum. Also, the smooth completion of the
process is largely attributed to the use of several cutting-edge machines in addition specialist tools
related to manufacture and agriculture.

The first step of the process is the planting and growing of the sugar canes. These sugar canes take
12-18 months to grow mature. After this period, only the parts protruding from the ground are
collected either by farmers or harvesters which are the farming machines.

Proceeding the process with those sugar canes, they are put into a crushing machine to expel juice.
The juice then undergo purification in a funnel with limestone filter inside. Next, heating is applied to
the purified juice by an evaporator for transformation into syrup, followed by the separation of sugar
crystals from the syrup by a centrifuge. Finally, the process culminates with a substantial quantity of
these crystals being stored in a large metal drum to dry and cool.
