Bananas Bananas are grown on a lot of the land that has been cleared. Bananas and other crops SAMPLE SLIDE Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show

More than half of the people who work on the island work with the banana crop in some way. They grow them, clean them, pack them, transport them and load them onto ships. SAMPLE SLIDE Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show

We visited a banana plantation. What was interesting was that each banana plant or tree only grows one crop of bananas and then the trees just die off. SAMPLE SLIDE Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show

A hurricane can wipe out the whole crop in just one night and then the people lose their jobs because the bananas are destroyed. SAMPLE SLIDE Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show
