Ecuadorian Banana Farms Should Consider Organic Banana with Low Price Risks in Their Land-Use Portfolios
Organic farming is a more environmentally friendly form of land use than conventional agriculture. However, recent studies point out production tradeoffs that often prevent the adoption of such practices by farmers. Our study shows with the example of organic banana production in Ecuador that economic tradeoffs depend much on the approach of the analysis. We test, if organic banana should be in...
متن کاملA Deep Learning-based Approach for Banana Leaf Diseases Classification
Plant diseases are important factors as they result in serious reduction in quality and quantity of agriculture products. Therefore, early detection and diagnosis of these diseases are important. To this end, we propose a deep learning-based approach that automates the process of classifying banana leaves diseases. In particular, we make use of the LeNet architecture as a convolutional neural n...
متن کاملComparative susceptibility of two banana cultivars to Banana bunchy top virus under laboratory and field environments.
Field and laboratory experiments were carried out on the island of Oahu, HI, to compare the susceptibility of the two most commonly grown banana (Musa sp.) cultivars in the state ('Dwarf Brazilian' or Santa Catarina [locally known as dwarf apple] and 'Williams') to the aphid-borne Banana bunchy top virus (genus Babuvirus, family Nanoviridae, BBTV). Several morphological and physiological featur...
متن کاملDiagnosis of banana bunchy top virus in Red banana
Banana Bunchy Top Disease (BBTD) caused by the Banana Bunchy Top Virus (BBTV), is the most serious virus disease of banana and plantain worldwide. Detection of the BBTV infection in the planting material could help in the effective management of the disease in banana. A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was used to detect the of banana bunchy top virus at early stages of infection in banana...
متن کاملLocal and neighboring patch conditions alter sex-specific movement in banana weevils.
Understanding the mechanisms underlying the movements and spread of a species over time and space is a major concern of ecology. Here, we assessed the effects of an individual's sex and the density and sex ratio of conspecifics in the local and neighboring environment on the movement probability of the banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus. In a "two patches" experiment, we used radiofrequency i...
