Yep.
Thats from FAO - the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
I'm very grateful to Pascal Liu for sending it out. Hopefully it'll ping some folks who'll be good additions to what we have happening here.

Some info about the forum:

Banana Forum

The Banana Forum service is provided by the Horticultural Products Group of the Commodities and Trade Division of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The aim of the network is to exchange information on developments in the world banana industry and to discuss social, economic, trade, environmental and other relevant issues in banana production and trade.

The Banana Forum service is free. However, members are expected to enhance the scope of the network by supplying information at least once every six months.

The Banana Forum is not intended for private companies to use as a vehicle for undertaking market research or to promote their products.

The contributions in the Banana Forum, including those made by FAO staff members in their personal capacity as members of the Forum, do not necessarily imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of FAO.

In March 2002 there were 50 subscribers to the Forum. Past discussions in the Forum included a discussion on GM bananas and a discussion on the future market for specialty bananas.
