Description : Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV) has been a major factor inhibiting the expansion of papaya production in South Florida, USA. The University of Florida has developed a transgenic papaya line X17-2, which is tolerant to PRSV and is suitable for commercial production. The expected yield improvement can be as high as 380%. In spite of the yield potential, some fruit growers may be skeptical about adopting this improved GM cultivars for a variety of reasons. Consequently, a probit model with data from a survey of likely producers was used to identify those factors that may influence the adoption of the new technology. The results indicate that education level, farm size, and income derived from agriculture were among the factors likely to increase adoption of the technology. The findings suggest that a targeted education program will go a far way in increasing rate of adoption of the technology. Le virus de tache annulaire de papaye (PRSV) a été un facteur important empêchant l'expansion de la production de papaye en Floride du sud, Etats-Unis. L'université de la Floride a développé une ligne transgénique X17-2 de papaye, qui est tolérante à PRSV et convient à la production commerciale. L'amélioration prévue de rendement peut être aussi haute que 380%. Malgré le potentiel de rendement, quelques arboriculteurs peuvent être sceptiques au sujet d'adopter ceci les cultivars améliorés de GM pour des raisons diverses. En conséquence, un modèle de probit avec des données d'une enquête des producteurs probables a été employé pour identifier ces facteurs qui peuvent influencer l'adoption de la nouvelle technologie. Les résultats indiquent que le niveau d'éducation, la taille de ferme, et le revenu dérivé de l'agriculture étaient parmi les facteurs vraisemblablement pour augmenter l'adoption de la technologie. Les résultats suggèrent qu'un programme éducatif visé aille une manière lointaine dans le taux croissant d'adoption de la technologie.

Description : Under tropical and sub-tropical climates, a sustainable development of agriculture is challenging because of the pest pressure with favorable weather conditions. Implementation of appropriate cropping systems including growing cover crops and crop rotation plays a critical role, which can break up the food chain and life cycles of field pests. Some field trials have demonstrated that among all tested summer cover crops, sunn hemp (Crotalaria juncea L. cv. Tropic sun) can grow vigorously during the rainy summer, cover the land quickly and densely, and it can produce a large quantity of biomass in two to three months. More importantly, sunn hemp can suppress soil root-knot nematodes via releasing some nematicides through its roots and through the decomposition of plant residues. Therefore, growing cover crop â? ? sunn hemp during the crop off season and rotating with valuable vegetable crops in the growing season has become a promising cropping system under the subtropical climate. Such a result may have a potential to be implemented in Caribbean countries to improve the sustainable development of agriculture.
