Georgia Pecans Represent How Far We Have To Go in Elevating Black Farmers

Georgia pecans hold centuries of history. | Photo by Lynsey Weatherspoon for Thrillist Georgia Pecans Represent How Far We Have To Go in Elevating Black Farmers Farmers in the southern state weigh in on the challenges that come with growing one of its highest yielding crops. Published on 6/1/2021 at 5:15 PM Part of my childhood was spent growing up in a sunny, small town outside of Augusta, Georgia, where I recall running through piles of football-shaped pecans that fell from my granny’s trees in her front yard. I’d become fascinated with watching her bag them up and send them off with various relatives, neighbors, and family friends. But before they reached the hands of excited pecan lovers, I’d fixate my eyes on them falling from the trees as she gently shook the branches. It wasn’t exactly the snow I longed to witness in the South, but it was close enough.

The Fiji Times » Slaves to the system – Cane growers emphatically proclaim they want an end to enslavement

Kamal Iyer Sugarcane cutters take a break to quench their thirst. Picture: FILE In searing heat and sweltering temperatures at Malele, Tavua just after midday on Thursday, April 8, 2021, a group of cane growers decided they have had enough of broken promises, falsehoods, fake assurances and freebies to buy their respect and dignity during general election fever. “We are broken; we are crippled; the Sugar Cane Growers Council (SCGC) and Sugar Cane Growers Fund (SCGF) are toothless and work against us (growers) despite the fact that they should be working for us; we demand SCGC elections”, one said. “We demand at least $20 per tonne of cane as fourth cane payment in May to help us prepare for harvesting and planting new crop; and we will not sit quietly and accept any excuse or refusal of our demands by government because it will mean our demise as growers”. Such was their resolve. In a nutshell, ‘Give us what is ours and stop fooling around because we have had enough’.
