The system of mix-cropping of bananas with tree crops viz, cocoa and nutmegs in Grenada mitigates against sustainable high standards of banana production. This is compounded by special problems of an economic nature at the farm level. Technological enhancement in production is also constrained by the absence of sufficiently professional approach in our extension delivery system. Grenada's programme for upgrading the technical competence of producers involves first a focused strategy on pure-stand production of bananas using the project's approach and secondly intensive re-training of extension personnel.
