Bamboo Production Practices in Florida: Water and Fertilization Requirements

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Bamboo production is estimated at around 1,300 acres in Florida, growing by 50% annually. Currently, growers are using trial and error methods to estimate production requirements related to water and fertilization and which varieties to grow. Stahl and Sargent (2021) provided a synopsis and comprehensive review of postharvest management practices for bamboo in Florida. In this review, we further elucidate the production requirements for bamboo using lessons and literature from other regions. In the near future, ongoing research will enable further updates on the production needs and best management practices of bamboo as the industry grows.
