Stevia Rebaudiana
Geplaatst: do 14 jan 2010, 18:23
In navolging van het bericht in ons maandblad bijenhouden, heb ik hier een draadje geopend.
Is het een goede drachtplant?
In bijennhouden wordt ons klimaat als een struikelblok gezien, alleen kom ik op internet andere informatie tegen:
Stevia [Stevia rebaudiana (Bertoni) Bertoni] is a new crop in Canada, grown mostly experimentally to date, in British Columbia, Alberta, and especially in Ontario (Borie 1998). This perennial herb of Paraguay and Brazil provides a non-nutritive sweetener that is widely used in Asia, although not yet judged acceptable for consumption in North America. It has been developed into an annual crop in Canada, but whether it will be able to compete with the perennial crop grown in California remains to be seen. Detailed information on the more than 100 culinary herbs that are grown in Canada is in Small (1997a).
