State of Florida Buys Wetlands

State of Florida Busy WetlandsIn Florida, when Mother Nature and commerce intersect, you have the Everglades on one side and the U.S Sugar Corp on the other. The biggest sugar cane producer in the United States is closing its doors within the next six years, which means for the State of Florida, it is time to buy.

Florida has bought the land for $1.7 billion and is planning to preserve it.

It is an agreement that will be the largest conservation purchase in the history of the state of Florida. The wetlands of the Everglades are the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States, where you can find endangered species such as the Florida panther and the American crocodile.

Although the 187,000 acres of South Florida that are being bought and restored, the domestic sugar cane producers might lose their lobbying efforts to reshape a national sugar policy. During the next six years the company will keep producing sugar on the land. The U.S Sugar Corp produces 700,000 tons of raw sugar annually. They will also provide a severance package for their 1,900 employees during this changeover.
