What ever the problem is it is unlikley to be power related as you can run the above set up off little more than a generator (although slowly). As far as I'm aware it will only plant sugar cane in a square that it can grow in i.e. next to water.

Failing that I believe the harvester can be set up not harvest the bottom block making the planting stage a one off event.
