    The World Banana Economy, 1985-2002 2003
    Also available in:

    The volume of bananas exported worldwide in the period 1985-2002 grew at an unprecedented average annual rate of 5.3 percent, twice that of the previous 24 years. This expansion was accompanied by minor technological changes but by major developments in the world trade situation. The latter included: the opening of socialist economies to world markets in the early 1990’s; a significant liberalization of bilateral and multilateral trade; rising environmental awareness; the creation of the Singl e European Market in 1993; a period of strong economic growth fostered by information technologies and “the new economy”; the implementation of structural adjustment policies in banana producing countries; and a significant concentration of trade at retail level. This publication reviews the impacts of these events on the world banana economy. It is the first of a series of FAO Commodity Studies that focus primarily on themes relating to individual commodities or commodity group.

    This report contains a market assessment of the 19 African countries receiving support under an EU-funded programme called SmartFish1. The purpose of the assessment was to identify national production trends (e.g. decline or increase) with regard to capture fisheries (fish caught wild) and aquaculture (fish farming) as well as future potentials with regards to further production and increased regional trade. Threats to current production as well as to future developments were also identified. Fu rthermore, for each of the countries, import and export flows of fish and fish products were examined, as well as the demand for the products (within, as well as outside the countries).
