Bunch from a ratoon sword sucker.



It's important to understand that not all banana cultivars produce a larger bunch on the ratoon crop but the ones that do can be manipulated to produce huge bunches. All the bunches we've produced that exceeded 200 pounds have come from ratoon sword suckers but for most applications we prefer growing water suckers.
