Last Cut

Mr. Jessie Breaux stands in front of one of his last patches of freshly cut and burned sugarcane prior to hauling it to the St. Mary Sugar Co-op in Jeanerette, Louisiana. Mr. Breaux, who is retiring after 31 years of farming, is one of few remaining farmers in Louisiana to utilize traditional whole stalk harvesting, a technique that's being replaced by newer harvest methods.
