I remember in the 60s Enos road right across, had alot of sugar cane, we used to watch the air plane drop fertilizers on the cane, I had a lot of family working at the plantation. These was the days was very good, plantation workers work very hard.I witness all this.
Forget trying to keep your truck clean if driving Hilo to Waimea...red mud all over the road which would turn to grease when it rained heavy...selfishly, I was glad to see them go.
A lot of people depended on the sugar companies all over Hawaii but those times are gone now and people have moved on. This film seems like a propaganda piece put out by the company so those nervous Nellies wouldn't freak out about the impending loss of their jobs...it gave them hope (false hope) and kept the mills running until the end.
Very true.. My whole family worked in the cane industry for generations . The cane industry moved out of Hawaii because it was cheaper labour in the Caribbean and the southern states on the east coast.
This is not a propaganda video. This is one of many training videos that was made for the plantation in the late 1980's. Levesque & Associates was hired by the plantation to help keep the company going and keep the sugar cane way of life on the Big Island. You have have it all wrong.

i can almost hear the screams from the old plantations
Shortly after making this delusional propaganda film, old Morgan sold the company.... he shat on this place, wiped his ass and moved on.
Yep sure was a good place to grow weed in
