The answer is simple. Sugar cane trucks don’t need to be covered because the priority is to get the crop to the mill quickly for processing into raw sugar. Harvesting can take place in any weather condition, and the mills operate continuously once they are started. With advancements in technology and equipment, harvesting methods have improved, resulting in fewer whole pieces of cane falling off the trucks. While some cane may still fly out of over-loaded trucks, it is not as messy as it used to be decades ago.
