Note 10 — The First Return

Report for 1918 showed an export of 20,000,000 cans of pineapple. In March, 1920, the estimated pack for that year was 6,000,000 cases. All this in face of certain discouragements, such as “pineapple wilt,” “Kauai blight,” and the objection of large areas of plants to flourish in manganese soil.
