Bs:rbeau IICA Associated Personnel IICA Office Trinidad and Tobago ABSTRACT Fruit trees offer a practical possibility in a reforestation program. Reforestation with fruit trees may be. associated with other farming enter­ prises. In the Caribbean a few non-traditional fruit tree species could be used for reforestation. The ones herein described have been chosen for· their adaptability to local conditions, apparent resistance or tolerance to pests and dlsea11ea, rusticity in relation to the cultural practices and resistance of their fruits to transport. Nuts and non-perishable fruits are the •ost suitable. INTRODUCTION Fruit treeu constitute an elegant way to think about reforestation. Two objectives can be reached at the same time: a) to protect the soil from erosion and re-eatablish a vegetative cover, and b) to generate food and a monetary income on a long-term basis through the production of fruits. Reforestation with fruit trees may also be associated with soae kind of extensive fanring including itinerant ground provisions and vegetable growing as well as sheep or cattle rahing. Thia type of farming should be considered as a low capital-and-labou·r consuming activity. Good experiaenta have been conducted in North Africa with the medite­ rranean ah1ond tree (Prunua dulcla) a111d date palms (Phoenix dactylifera). Some attempts have also been made in Central America with the cashew (Anacardium occidentale) and the pee-wah (Guilielma gasipaes) and in Trop­ ical Africa with the tamarind (Tamarlndus indica) and dunks (Zlziphus mauri tania). Attempts have not been always suc!cessful for many reasons; probably the three most important are: the incorrect choice of the species to be cultivated; unappropriated techniques of cultivation (soil preparation, terracing, weeding, etc., or intercro11ping; and lack of oonsciousneas from neighbours, mainly for not keeping away their domestic animals. In the Caribbean a few non-traditional fruit tree species could be used for reforestation. The ones herein described have been chosen for their adaptability to local condition&, apparent resistance or tolerance to peats and diseases, rusticity in rdation to the cultural practices and resistance of their fruits to transport. Nuts and non-perishable fruits are the most suitable. 65 T&OPICAL HUMID ilEAS (Rainfall > 2 ,000-2 ,500 u 9 dry aeaaon <J aontha) Breadfruit /Artocarpus altilis (Park,) Foab,7, cluataigne (A. altilis var. aeminifera) 1 and jackfruit <!· heteropl11yllua Laa,), Theae-.ue quick growin& species well adapted to the huald tropics.

Chataigne and jackfruit are propagated by seeds. lacb species can develop into huge trees, 10 plantings auat be spaced with thla in •ind, allowing no more than 100 trees/ha. Breadfruit la an iaportant source of food in the Caribbean and baa certainly the beat export potential for North America and the EEC. Jackfruit la popular aaong populations of Indian origin..

J:mprovad cultivara have been selected in CATIE, Turrialba (Costa Rica), both for fruits and for heart of pal~•. The traea can be propagated froa aeeda or basal suckers.

Some tr••• bava been planted in Trinidad a few dacedaa ago, int.he Cuauto­ Coryal area (Puraglove, 1968). Their behavior caa be qualified as excel­ lent. At present, nuts are sold in local 11uperaarketa. These r11uta have a gre.at potential for export since they ar,e considered better than the true Brazil nut (Bertholletia excelsa) and their shell la not aa hard. Slow geralnatlon of the aeeda and late bearing of the trees represent serious constraints for propagation and COlllearclal production. Research work on vegetative propagation and tissue culture has been done in Brazil to try to solve these probleaa. It must be considered a long tera investment. The urn-like fruits which contain the nuta are very attrac­ tive and can originate the development of a handicraft activity. TROPICAL DR.Y AREAS (Rainfall < 1,500-2,000 -; dry aeaaon from 3 to 6 months), Tamarind (Tamarindus indica L.). Native of the savannahs •>f Tropical Africa, the tamarind is a very hardy and drought resistant fruit tree, slow growing and late bearing when propagated from seeds, but vegetative propa­ gation (budding) of outstanding cultivars reduces these inconveniences. Belonging to the legume family, its cultivation improves the soil fertility through the fixation of nitrogen. The fruits are collected during the dry season and can be stored in a dry place for a long time. The pulp can be e>ctracted and shaped into small balls and then wrapped in polythene sheets. Export market for both fresh frul.ta and pulp is developing. 66 Cashew (Anacardium occidentale I..) Cashew is a faat ,rowing, hardy, drought reaiataot, early bearing tre•i, able to produce high priced nuta and soft apples uaed to make juice, "ine, vinegar, and dried fruits. The apples are very perishable but even l'.f •oat of them are loat, the nuta can always be picked and stored in a dry place for a long time. The cashew n&t shell liquid (CNSL) alao baa •any industrial uaea. The main incon­ venience ia that the tree ia very ae11aitlve to fire. Many atte•pta of reforestation with thla apeclea have failed for thla reason.

  • Polynesian Canoe Plants, Including Breadfruit, Taro, and Coconut: the Ultimate in Sustainability Planning Posted on June 27, 2019 by Leslie Lang
    HOME HOURS & DIRECTIONS GARDEN SLIDESHOW GARDEN NEWS & BLOG Polynesian Canoe Plants, Including Breadfruit, Taro, and Coconut: the Ultimate in Sustainability Planning Posted on June 27, 2019 by Leslie Lang Do you know about “canoe plants?” These are the plants—such as kalo (taro), ‘ulu (breadfruit), and niu (coconut), among others—that Polynesians brought in their carefully-stocked voyaging canoes perhaps 1,600 years ago when they first settled in Hawai‘i. Canoe plants are one more piece of the evidence showing us that the people who colonized Hawai‘i were intelligent voyagers who came in planned expeditions, not islanders who drifted here unintentionally. Not only did they successfully navigate the oceans like highways, but before they left home to explore and settle new lands, they pr​​epared themselves well. After all, they had to sustain themselves both during their long journeys and also upon arrival in a new island group, where they didn’t know what resources they would find. They maximized their limited space by packing seeds, roots, shoots, and cuttings of their most critical plants, the ones they relied on the most for food, medicine, and for making containers, fabric, cordage, and more. We can identify about 24 plants that arrived in Hawai‘i as canoe plants. You can see samples of some of them at Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden. The Most Significant Polynesian Canoe Plants: ‘Ulu ‘Ulu (Artocarpus altilis, Artocarpus incisus or Artocarpus communis) belongs to the Moracceae (fig or mulberry) family. Known in English as breadfruit, the ‘ulu tree produces a “fruit” that is actually a vegetable with a high carbohydrate content.

  • Breadfruit, Breadnut, and Jackfruit: How Are They Related? by Fred Prescod
    Comparing Breadfruit, Breadnut, and Jackfruit: How are they Related? by Fred Prescod In the first article we traced the arrival of the breadfruit plant into the New World. Now we compare breadfruit with its close relatives, breadnut and jackfruit, both also found in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. These three plants all belong to the botanical genus known as Artocarpus. The name Artocarpus is applied to about 60 different trees, all members of the fig or mulberry family (Moraceae), a botanical division which at one time included Cannabis. Trees of this genus are native to Southeast Asia and the Pacific region. The generic name (Artocarpus) is derived from the Greek words ‘artos’ (meaning bread) and ‘karpos’ (meaning fruit). The name is thought to have been established by Johann Reinhold Forster and J. Georg Adam Forster, botanists aboard the HMS Resolution on James Cook’s second voyage. In J.W. Pursglove’s publication on tropical crops, he reports that Joseph Banks, James Cook and other early travelers brought back descriptions of the breadfruit plant using phrases such as ‘bread itself is gathered as a fruit’. Breadfruit tree – Calliaqua, St. Vincent Breadfruit tree at Calliaqua, St. Vincent. [Photo by Jim Lounsberry] Unfortunately some confusion often arises from the use of common names, where a single common name may be applied to different plants in different areas. Nevertheless breadfruit itself is recognized as a seedless form of the plant known botanically as Artocarpus altilis (also Artocarpus communis), while breadnut (often also listed as Artocarpus altilis) was originally thought to be simply a race or form of the same plant with fruits containing seeds.

  • Good Things Happen When You Plant Trees
    Plant a Tree … … and Good Things Happen! A guideline for younger children By Mary McLaughlin & Judy Osgood Illustrations by Edward Brooks Plant a tree and good things happen . 1.

To the joy we have in play Teaching guide on trees. Created by Mary McLaughlin & Judy Osgood. Plant a tree and good things happen . to the air we breathe How do trees help us breathe? Key Concepts: Trees are the lungs of the earth. People need to breathe in air with oxygen to live. People breathe in oxygen (O2) and breath out carbon dioxide (CO2). Trees take in carbon dioxide and turn it into oxygen. Questions and Activities: *Put your hand on your chest. Breathe in and out. Do you feel the air coming in and going out? Where does the air come into the body and where does it exit? What organ of the body holds the air? What do we mean by bad or dirty air? *If you breathed in bad air what would happen to you? What causes bad air? What helps the air to improve? What are the other gases that make up the air that we breath? 1 Plant a tree and good things happen . to the food we eat Name some trees that give you food to eat: Brainstorm: things we eat that grow on trees: Ackee Limes Allspice Mango Almonds Maple syrup Apples Moringa Bananas Naseberry Bay leaves Olives Beechnuts Oranges Brazil nuts Pawpaw Breadfruit Peaches Cashews Persimmon Cherries Pigeon pea Chestnuts Pine nuts Cinnamon Pistachios Cloves Plums Cocoa Pomegranate Coconuts Soursop Questions and Activities Dates Starfruit *How many of these have you eaten?

  • The Distribution and Strategies of Plants to Grow Around Laguna Lake in Ternate
    The Distribution and Strategies of Plants to Grow around Laguna Lake in Ternate Abdulrasyid Tolangara, Hasna Ahmad and Fadli Umar Biology Education Study Program, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Khairun, Indonesia Keywords: Distribution, Strategy, Plant growth, Laguna Lake. Abstract: Distribution is a spacing pattern of individuals in a population relative to one another. There are various individuals’ distribution patterns. They are commonly known as uniform, random, and clumped distribution patterns. The present research was designed as an ex post facto research which aimed to observe an existing phenomenon and recount past events to investigate factors that contributed to the occurrences. This research was conducted in an area of 7.500 m2which was dug into 50 plots of 20x20m. Random plotting method was employed to collect the data. The number of individual targeted plants which appeared in the observation plots were calculated. Each of the plants’ species was identified. The distribution patterns and the growth strategies of the individuals were determined based on the Morisita Index values. The results indicated that Laguna Lake areas were mostly surrounded by durian (Durio zibethinus L), nutmeg (Myristica fragrans Hout), breadfruit (Artocarpus communis L), and mango (Mangifera indica L.). The distribution patterns of the plants consisted of random distribution pattern (durian (Durio zibethinus L.), breadfruit (Artocarpus communis L.), and mango (Mangifera indica L.)) and clumped distribution pattern (nutmegor Myristica fragrans Hout.). In relation to plant growth strategies, the K-theory was introduced (growth strategy). Environmental factors including the soil pH, light intensity, water current, and mineral content also influenced the distribution patterns and growth strategies of the targeted plants.

  • Container Food List Guide
    CONTAINER FOOD LIST GUIDE If you’re reading this, it’s safe to assume that you’ve done your calorie calculations and found your individual 80 Day Obsession Eating Plan in the Program Materials list, so you know how much food to eat—and when to eat it. These Portion-Control Container Food Lists help you determine which foods to eat for your best results. Here are a few tips to help you: ● Once you figure out how many of each portion-control container to eat each day, fill those containers with foods from the corresponding lists. For example, if your plan calls for 6 greens, fill your Green Container (Vegetables) 6 times a day. ● The foods on each list are arranged by nutritional value—the higher up on the list, the more nutritional benefit! ● Many of the foods are listed with specific measurements/amounts—10 asparagus spears, for example. If there’s no amount, just fill the containers to the point that you can still fit the lid on it. ● There are over 100 “containerized” recipes on the Fixate® cooking show on Beachbody® On Demand. And Autumn provides the container equivalents for each one so it’s easy to integrate into your Eating Plan!
