Tarama Island has no mountains or rivers, and most of the entire island consists of sugarcane fields and ranches. The production of brown sugar on Tarama Island accounts for about 40% of Okinawa Prefecture's total, and it is known nationwide as the largest brown sugar producing area in Japan.
The brown sugar produced from sugarcane cultivated in such a climate is compressed, boiled down, and solidified to produce "Tarama Island Brown Sugar."
