Abstract

Despite the fact that the papaya (Carica papaya L.)has long been important to the tropics, it was only in the last 20 years that the papaya has become one of the important fruit crops in Hawaii. In the late 1950's there were 750 acres of papaya in the State while in 1973, an average of 1,430 acres produced 32.8 million pounds. The principle producing area is in the Puna district on the island of Hawaii.
