cane (1).
White and yellow and black which is not pressed and thickened….. and then squeezed the white and yellow one, and for its honey, the reeds and its leaves from what is coming from the land of Zinj, it is like citron yellow. ……
(1) sugarcane from Zanj is also treated by: Ibn Al-Baytar (1249); Abu l-Khayr (1200); Abu Albaqqa (15th); Abu Hanifa al Dinawari (895).
