Re: Organic Banana Variety in Supermarkets?
Thanks everyone for the replies! I appreciate it! I guess the biggest question was if cavendish is struggling already with powerful commerical chemicals, if it was possible they could be grown without them in most places (black sigatoka, yellow sigatoka, cigar rot etc). There are certainly organic chemicals that can be used, but wasn't sure if they'd have enough firepower to keep the diseases at bay. That wouldn't be a concern at least for a time, however, if they started with virgin land as Mark was saying. That's really interesting.
