’Korean bananas’ to be harvested this year amid climate change
氣候變遷下 今年將收成更多「韓國香蕉」
【摘要2020.6.14.自由】◎茅毅
Jeju Island was
long considered the only warm-enough region in Korea for commercial banana
farming, but climate change is now turning the mainland into a producer of the
tropical fruit.
濟州島長久以來被認為是韓國唯一一個夠溫暖的地區，適合香蕉商業化種植。但氣候變遷現在正使韓國本土，變成這種熱帶水果的產地。
According to the
agricultural technology center in North Chungcheong Province, the number of
people investing in banana farming has surged in recent years.
根據忠清北道農業技術中心，投資香蕉種植的人數近年來已急遽增加。
About 99.7
percent of all bananas consumed here are imported, mainly from the Philippines,
and most of the rest is produced on Jeju. But with more farmers exploring the
field, this soon could change.
南韓吃掉的所有香蕉中，約99.7%為進口，主要來自菲律賓，其餘大多數產自濟州島。惟隨著更多農民探索這片領域，這種情形不久就可能有所改變。
