Explanation:

The text refers to sugar as "a killer" in Louisiana as they did not have the hot weather as in the Caribbean to harvest.

Then, slaves had to increase their production and beat the weather because otherwise the crop would be completely ruined.

For this reason, the work of slaves in Louisiana was much more exhaustive than in the Caribbean.
