In regards to migration, sugarcane fields were a place where many people worked in order to make some money, so they could afford to live in their new home and support their families in a new environment. There were a lot of strikes to improve work conditions at the sugarcane fields and the number of exports from Hawai’i (from such things as sugarcane, that migrants worked in the fields) totalled 287,000,000 USD.
