Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mango in Hawaii Since it has been demonstrated that mangos can be kept for at least several weeks and can be transported long distances (see p. And since the trees in these islands produce fruit in its perfection abundantly, the questions arise: Why should not the fruit be grown commercially in Hawaii and marketed on the mainland Of the United States? Why should not the better varieties be propagated more generally? There seems no greater Obstacle in the way of establishing a mango industry in these islands than has confronted orange growing in Florida and California or many Of the other horticultural enter prises which have now assumed very large proportions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mango Culture in Hawaii The mango is indigenous to a large tropical area Of southern Asia. In parts Of that continent it is believed to have been in cultivation for over years. Its prominence in Hindu mythology and religious Observance is said to leave no doubt as to its antiquity. Few other fruits have the historical background of the mango or seem to have been so closely associated with the folklore and religious ceremonies Of a great race Of people. From southern Asia the species spread to practically all the tropi cal world. The tree is adapted to the great range of conditions under which it is now found growing, and the fruit occupies a conspicuous place in the dietary Of millions Of people in the Tropics. Early Spanish and Portuguese explorers and traders introduced the mango into various parts Of the tropical world. Spanish traders are thought to have carried the mango from the Philippine Islands to the west coast Of Mexico long before the discovery Of the Hawaiian Islands by Englishmen in 1778. The Portuguese are also known to have brought this valuable fruit to the western world. It was planted in Brazil by them at an uncertain date, presumably in the early part of the eighteenth century. The mango evidently met with much favor, and under the climatic and fertile soil conditions of the New World it grew in great profusion. In 50 years it spread widely to a number of places and was grown particularly in the vicinity Of Rio de J aneiro. It was carried from there to the West Indies and reached Barbados, whence it spread to most Of the other islands Of the great archipelago. In 32 years after the mango tree was introduced into Jamaica it was said to be commonly found in that island.

Book Citrus Culture in Hawaii  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Citrus Culture in Hawaii Classic Reprint written by Willis Thomas Pope and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Citrus Culture in Hawaii Many growers have successfully ripened citrus fruit with out infestation by bagging it. In a study of the best methods Of protecting the fruit, the station used medium-weight brown paper bags, and medium-weight cellophane bags to cover grape fruit, oranges, mandarins, and limes. Four-pound bags were used for grapefruit, three-pound bags for oranges, and two pound bags for mandarins and for limes. The bags were put on when the fruit was still green and nearly full grown. The bag was placed about the fruit and tied tightly enough to prevent the entry of water in case of rain; A workman can place 50 to 150 bags per hour, depending on the convenience of reaching the fruit. No foliage Should be bagged with the fruit. Although much rain fell during November and December, 1931, most of the bags were in good condition for from 30 to 50 days, when the fruit was picked. When the fruit ripened - those in the cello phane bags had deeper yellow coloring and possibly better flavor than the fruits in the paper bags.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Marketing Hawaiian Fruits This development which has been witnessed will certainly be repeated in the case of many tropical fruits now unknown _on the mainland of the United States. The pineapple has only begun to gain in popularity. The avocado is 'a rarity in a few markets and never reaches most of the large cities. The mango is not known. All these and a number of other tropical fruits will certainly make a large place for themselves in the American markets. Where will these fruits be produced? The eastern markets will be supplied by Porto Rico, Cuba, and the tropical portions of the mainland. There is no place better suited to supply the Western markets than Hawaii. The pineapple business is already assuming large proportions here. With this outlook the Hawaii Experiment Station has undertaken experiments to determine what fruit's can be successfully shipped and fu ther to investigate methods of packing and shipment. The experiments also serve to introduce new kinds of fruit in the markets. Experiments have been conducted in a small way for several years, which led to the shipment of several tons of fruit in charge of the Horticulturist of the Station. This shipment was made in August, 1906. The plan and results of the experiments are noted herein. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
