Sugarcane mill

A sugar cane mill is a factory that processes sugar cane to produce raw sugar or plantation white sugar. Some sugar mills are situated next to a back-end refinery, that turns raw sugar into (refined) white sugar.

Not to be confused with Sugar refinery.

The term is also used to refer to the equipment that crushes the sticks of sugar cane to extract the juice.
