Characterization of banana farms (Musa spp.) in Cuyani Microbasin, Pichanaki District, Chanchamayo Province (Junín, Perú)
The objective of this study was to characterize banana farms in the Cuyani Microbasin in the district of Pichanaki, Chanchamayo province (Junín, Peru). We worked with a producer organization that has 400 partners, of which a sample was taken (n = 80) using the proportions method. It was found that t...
