Conteúdo: | The Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Nicaragua (UNAN) started in 1996 in collaboration with the Flemish Development Agency (VVOB, Beldium) and the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KUL, Belgium) a project on bananas and plantains in the region Leon-Chinandega (north-western Nicaragua). In that region, 2000 ha of bananas are produced for export while 400 ha of plantains are grown in big plantations as well as in smallholding for local markets. A rapid diagnostic survey was done involving 98 farmers and two extension services to improve the understanding on the importance of these crops. These crops take a rather small place in the farm (21.3% of the field) and contribute to 24% of the agricultural revenue. Half the farmers produce it exclusively for self-consumption. All crops are produced as monocrops, only banana and plantain can sometimes be associated with trees near the house.
