How sweet it is. The Sugar Cane Growers Cooperative of Florida (SCGC) is a 54-member sugar farmers' cooperative that offers its members help with farms administration and provides agricultural and planting advice, as well as harvesting, processing, and marketing operations for their more than 70,000 acres of sugar cane. The cooperative's member/growers produce more than 350,000 tons of raw cane sugar every year. SCGC is a joint-owner of American Sugar Refining (along with Florida Crystals), a top New York refiner that owns Domino Foods, producer of Domino branded sugar products. The joint venture grew exponentially in late 2010 following the purchase of Tate & Lyle's European sugar-refining business.
