Topic 5.8
How does global distribution and production of bananas embody principles seen in Von Thunen's model?
Banana cultivation has been discouraged due to its environmental impact on rainforests.
Bananas are grown extensively in tropical regions but exported globally due to their high economic value despite transportation costs.
Banana plantations have replaced all other types of agriculture within tropical regions.
Bananas are only sold locally because they are highly perishable.
