甘蔗對於清領到日治時期的臺灣意義重大，是主要的出口經濟作物，是以甘蔗在臺灣的歷史地位是極為重要的，臺灣從明鄭開始的糖業，在清領與日治時期更為發達，雖然人民在日治時期倍受欺壓，但對農民而言，甘蔗也是賴以為生的作物，蔗田成為了臺灣在清領到日治時期最常見的農地；而此時期亦是臺灣文學中「漢詩」的成型階段，其中書寫臺灣風土民情頗多；本文從甘蔗與漢詩間尋找其中的關聯性，統整文學作品中反應的社會風貌，可以發現甘蔗這樣的臺灣經濟作物主要影響的文人為日治時期的詩人對於社會的關懷，對於清領時期的文人影響則較少，這樣的影響主要是因為日本殖民時期加強蔗糖業的發展所致，也可以說是在人民的意識下，受到文學與歷史的影響，臺灣漢詩中的甘蔗書寫從清領到日治的發展，逐漸能體現社會風氣以及人民生活。
