Banana (plantain) Plantation

Our damaged banana plantation.  Don't know the number of fallen banana plants.  Will get an estimate from our agronomist tomorrow. 

Five minute windstorm

The menacing dark clouds were apparent for hours late this morning.  All of a sudden, the wind kicked up with hurricane force and came upon us from the southeast and then the southwest.  The rain followed.  I guestimate we lost at least ten percent of our banana crop in those few minutes.  It was quite dramatic!
