Vermilion Parish is based on farming, its what supports the economy there. Gotta be careful what you wish for
I agree with sugarcane being good for economy. But sugarcane requires a lot more equipment up and down the roads than rice does. Typically with rice you only have two or 3 tractors, a combine and a truck to haul to the bins. Sugarcane has a multitude if tractors, a combine, and trucks to haul it. Not to mention all the vehicles the farmers use to get back and forth. Rice is only a two or 3 man operation.
