In lieu of an abstract, here is a brief excerpt of the content:
Several banana industries in the Western Hemisphere are structured differently from the Latin American and Caribbean models, although those models are the most common. Belize, Suriname, Guadeloupe, and Martinique, for example, all sell bananas to Europe, but they have different production systems from those in Latin America and the eastern Caribbean. Belize and Suriname are part of the group of traditional exporters to the EU. Guadeloupe and Martinique, as overseas departments of France, are internal parts of the European Union. Although the islands are geographically Caribbean, the EU does not classify their bananas as imports. This chapter explores a few of the less common industry models. Edj^[9Wh_XX[Wd
