Yes, farmers in ancient times did produce sugar, although the methods and sources varied. Initially, sugar was extracted from sugarcane, which originated in Southeast Asia and spread to different regions, including India and the Middle East. By the Middle Ages, sugar production expanded to Europe, where it became a valued commodity. Farmers often cultivated sugarcane or sugar beets, depending on the region and availability, to meet the growing demand for sugar.
