As much as I wish that were the case, it isn't true
Every indusrty is granted some type of benefit that isnt available to the rest of us.
Burning cane residue is one. As far as loading up heavy trucks, there are exceptions for other industries...we only do it for 3 months out of the year.

It's an agricultural practice, how is this a benefit over others? They have to abide by certain rules and have a burn plan in order to burn right now. And if they don't have one at other times, they are just as liable as any other person that fails to control a burn.

They can still burn industrial forestland as well, because prescribed burning is an agricultural practice.
