Answer: A Vegetables typical of a subtropical climate, such as goya (bitter melon) and beni-imo (red sweet potatoes) grow well in Okinawa, as do such decorative flowers as moth orchids. Pineapples, mangoes, and other fruit also thrive. 
Sugar cane is a typical crop of Okinawa Prefecture. In late November silvery sugar cane plants that have shed their seeds can be seen waving in the fields. The harvest season is from January to February, and the harvested sugar cane is taken to a factory, squeezed, and made into crude sugar.
