Where this word comes from
Said to be from Arabic صَفْرَاء (ṣafrāʔ, “yellow”) because of its being made of brass (Arabic صُفْر (ṣufr), whence Spanish azófar). The resemblance with Arabic صَفَّى (ṣaffā, “to filter”), مِصْفاة (miṣfāh, “colander”) is then coincidental.
harvest, chiefly that of sugar cane

Where this word comes from
