The official channel of the France 3 show. C'est pas sorcier, the magazine of discovery and science. Fred and Jamy are in Reunion and explain everything to us about sugar cane. On the east coast of the island, favored by a microclimate conducive to crops, Fred walks through these large expanses of sweet reeds. From cutting to extracting the sugar, without forgetting of course, the production of rum, he presents the entire sugar industry to us. But sugar cane has not only shaped the landscape of Reunion Island. It has also marked its history. Fred and Jamy tell us the painful history of slavery in Reunion, this slavery which is at the origin of a particularly rich mix.
