Présentation

Cet ouvrage comprend 4 parties. La partie 1 concerne la plante, sa biologie et ses rapports avec le milieu physique et biologique. La phytotechnie avec un éventail d'itinéraires techniques pour chaque étape de la culture constitue la partie 2. Les parties 3 et 4 sont une synthèse des utilisations possibles de l'ananas et des technologies utilisées (conservation, produits dérivés).
