Third-Year Banana Cultivar Trial in South Georgia AgEcon
Fonsah, Esendugue Greg; Krewer, Gerard; Rieger, Mark; Wallace, Richard.
Although the State of Georgia produces many fruits such as, apples, blueberries, strawberries, blackberries, grapes and peaches, bananas have never been considered an economic crop. This is probably because of marginal weather condition for bananas and massive imports from Central and South America. This study, which is in its third year, continually evaluates 32 banana cultivars and determines their suitability for production, marketing, and distribution in Georgia.

Why Are There Seeds In My Banana? A Look at Ornamental Bananas AgEcon
Fonsah, Esendugue Greg; Wallace, Richard; Krewer, Gerard.
In many parts of the world bananas are a staple food, while in other regions they are a highly valued ornamental plant. Bananas are the fourth most important food crop in the world, and they are also used in many other ways—every part of the plant has value. In addition to the standard dessert bananas, there is another group of species in the banana genus that are much less known in the United States but offer some wonderful options as landscape plants. This group of banana species is known as ornamental bananas. This paper sheds some light on ornamental banana cultivars that provide a tropical atmosphere to gardens in the Southeast region of the United States.

BANANA CULTIVAR TRIALS FOR FRUIT PRODUCTION, ORNAMENTAL-LANDSCAPE USE, AND ORNAMENTAL-NURSERY PRODUCTION IN SOUTH GEORGIA AgEcon
Fonsah, Esendugue Greg; Krewer, Gerard; Rieger, Mark.
North America is the largest net importer of bananas on a regional basis. The United States is still the world’'s number- one importer and consumer of bananas. U.S. companies spend approximately $1.1 billion each year on banana imports, purchasing 31.1% of total world imports (Fonsah 2002; FAO 2001). Bananas and plantains together have been rated the fourth most important crop in the world in terms of food value and food security. This research is aimed at determining the feasibility and suitability of Annual Cropping Production (ACP) for a niche market under Georgia weather conditions and, determining which cultivars have the greatest potential for ornamental-landscape use and ornamental-nursery production. Phenological and pomological sampling and data...

Banana Trials: A Potential Niche and Ethnic Market in Georgia AgEcon
Fonsah, Esendugue Greg; Krewer, Gerard; Wallace, Richard; Mullinix, Ben.
Annual cropping production (ACP) is a technique used worldwide to target favorable market conditions. This technique has allowed commercial banana production outside the traditional production belt such as South Africa, Thailand, Israel, and China. In 2003 an evaluation of thirty-three cultivars was initiated near Savannah, Georgia to determine their suitability for ornamental, nursery, and ACP for niche/ethnic markets under Georgia weather conditions. In South Georgia and other temperate regions around the world, the pseudostems are normally killed to ground level during most winters. However, excellent plant growth rate, good flowering, and limited commercial fruit production was observed. Identifying one or more cultivars with potential to produce...

A Three-Year Study on the Effect of Trellis Type on Yield, Fruit Size, and Economics of Blackberry Production in Georgia AgEcon
Krewer, Gerard; Fonsah, Esendugue Greg; Boyhan, George.
Tissue-culture propagated "Chicksaw" blackberry plants were set four feet apart in April of 2000 as part of a five-year trellising trial near Reidsville, Georgia. There were five treatments: an untrellised control, posts with plastic baling string on both sides, posts and three vertical wires, "raspberry" V trellis, and Limited Arm-Rotation Shift-Trellis (eliminated in 2003). There were four replications with twenty feet for each treatment per replication, for a total of 80 feet per treatment. Primocanes were tipped at 3.5 to four feet and re-tipped several times during the summer when new growth exceeded about 12 inches. Mature plant height at the end of the growing season was about five feet. Starting in the third growing season, yield data was collected...

A Plan for Economic Evaluation of Organic Blueberry Production in Georgia AgEcon
Plattner, Kristy; Fonsah, Esendugue Greg; Escalante, Cesar L.; Krewer, Gerard; Anderson, Peter; Liburd, Oscar; Tertuliano, Moukaram.
Tipo: Conference Paper or Presentation Palavras-chave: Blueberry consumption is increasing across the United States. Georgia’s production value of conventional blueberries has exceeded that of peaches to reach a farm-gate value of $75 million. Demand for organic food products is increasing with United States gross sales at $16.9 billion in 2006. Economic feasibility of organic blueberries is uncertain creating risk in transitioning from conventional to organic production. The principal objective is to utilize field data to determine the costs of various production methods; By developing several enterprise budgets for each adopted technique.; Crop Production/Industries.

Second Year Banana Cultivar Trial in South Georgia AgEcon
Fonsah, Esendugue Greg; Krewer, Gerard; Rieger, Mark.
The development of the annual cropping production system (ACP) and more cold-tolerant cultivars has allowed commercial banana production outside the traditional production belt. This evaluation of 32 cultivars was initiated to determine the feasibility and suitability of Annual Cropping Production (ACP) for niche/ethnic markets under Georgia weather conditions; determine the growth performance, fruit quality, and marketability; and determine which cultivars have sufficient cold hardiness for ornamental landscape use.
