Beneath the peel

Article Abstract:

Banana companies which turned vast swaths of jungle into plantations of clones of a single banana variety,have turned over a new leaf with a new certification program named Better Banana Project introduced by the Rainforest Alliance. The porgram had positive financial implications as it reduced the costs of chemicals, improved occupational health and safety, lowered insurance premiums and improved productivity with less absenteeism and better morale.
