Sugarcane agriculture and coastal irrigation define the landscape of southern Puerto Rico in this 1940s topographic study. The Canal de Juana Díaz cuts across the coastal plain, feeding the agricultural operations at Colonia Santiago and Hacienda Palés. These landholdings represent the industrial-scale farming that shaped the region's economy and social structure before the mid-century shifts in island industry.
