Today, under the management of LMB Farming Pty Ltd, the banana-growing land has grown to a substantial 1400 acres, with potential plans for further expansion up to 1600 acres.

growing region
The north tropical coast of Queensland, also known as the Cassowary Coast, boasts an ideal environment for growing bananas due to a combination of natural advantages. Its tropical climate, characterized by high temperatures and abundant rainfall year-round, creates the perfect conditions for banana plants to thrive.
The nutrient-rich volcanic soil found in the region provides a fertile foundation for robust root systems and optimal fruit development, ensuring healthy and productive crops.
With a wealth of agricultural expertise and a lush biodiversity that aids in pest management, the Cassowary Coast is a prime location for banana cultivation, producing high-quality fruit that is sought after all over Australia.
