I have grown sugarcane for a few decades both on O'ahu and here on the 'Big Island'. I use it as a windrow as well as the leaves for mulch. I also like to chew on it or cut the culm into slices and stick it into a cup of hot coffee or tea and avoid having to use processed sweeteners.

When I have a lot of it (due to the 'invasiveness' posted by another member, I cut it and trade it with a goat owner up the road who gives me fresh goat milk in exchange! WONDERFUL!!!
