Time of planting affected bunch weight, number of marketable fruits, hands, and fruit size. A schedule of planting during the first half of January, July, September, November, and December is suggested for this area to reduce seasonal effects and avoid the usual summer surplus.}, number={1}, journal={The Journal of Agriculture of the University of Puerto Rico}, author={Irizarry, Heber and Green, José J. and Rivera, Edmundo and Hernández, Iván}, year={1978}, month={Jan.}, pages={113–118} }
