Abstract

香蕉仍為目前最重要外銷水果，每年外銷日本等地約五~七百萬箱，為適應日本三~七月市場需要，香蕉產期調節至為重要。影響香蕉產期除氣候因素(氣溫、日照、雨量、颱風)外，最重要者為調節種植期與留萌期，自種植至採收期南部需時十一~十三個月，自留萌至採收需時十一~十四個月，留萌時母株尚末開花比開花者晚一~二個月採收；中部晚一~二個月。 Banana which export 5-7 million boxes per year is the leading export fruit in Taiwan. Since the demand peak in Japan is around the period of March-June, to regulate it's harvest season is necessary. Except the uncontrollable climatic factors such as temperature, rainfall, sunlight, and typhoon etc. affects harvest season, planting period and sucker period were the most significant factors in regulating harvest season. Banana planted with suckering took about 11-13 months to harvest, however, is took about 11-14 months to harvest from pseudo-stem attached sucker. Banana grown in southern Taiwan harvest about 1-2 months earlier than that in central Taiwan.
