Ce n'est pas un hasard que Madagascar en produit 80% mondialement. La vanille n'est pas cultivable n'importe où. Ça m'étonnerait que le climat au Rwanda en permette une production industrielle. Ils la cultivent mais à grands frais. Voici un texte de Wikipedia:
Vanilla is a flavor derived from orchids of the genus Vanilla, primarily from the Mexican species, flat-leaved vanilla (V. planifolia). The wordvanilla, derived from the diminutive of the Spanish word vaina (vainaitself meaning sheath or pod), translates simply as "little pod".[1] Pre-Columbian Mesoamerican people cultivated the vine of the vanilla orchid, called tlilxochitl by the Aztecs. Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés is credited with introducing both vanilla and chocolate to Europe in the 1520s.[2]
Initial attempts to cultivate vanilla outside Mexico and Central America proved futile because of the symbiotic relationship between the vanilla orchid and its natural pollinator, the local species ofMelipona bee.[3] Pollination is required to set the fruit from which the flavoring is derived. In 1837, Belgian botanist Charles François Antoine Morren discovered this fact and pioneered a method of artificially pollinating the plant. The method proved financially unworkable and was not deployed commercially.[4] In 1841, Edmond Albius, a slave who lived on the French island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean, discovered at the age of 12 that the plant could be hand-pollinated. Hand-pollination allowed global cultivation of the plant.[5]
Three major species of vanilla currently are grown globally, all of which derive from a species originally found in Mesoamerica, including parts of modern-day Mexico.[6] The various subspecies areVanilla planifolia (syn. V. fragrans), grown on Madagascar, Réunion, and other tropical areas along the Indian Ocean; V. tahitensis, grown in the South Pacific; and V. pompona, found in the West Indies, and Central and South America.[7] The majority of the world's vanilla is theV. planifolia species, more commonly known as Bourbon vanilla (after the former name of Réunion, Île Bourbon) or Madagascar vanilla, which is produced in Madagascar and neighboring islands in the southwestern Indian Ocean, and in Indonesia.[8][9] Leptotes bicolor is used in the same way in South America.
Vanilla is the second most expensive spice after saffron,[10][11]because growing the vanilla seed pods is labor-intensive.[11] Despite the expense, vanilla is highly valued for its flavor.[12] As a result, vanilla is widely used in both commercial and domestic baking, perfume manufacture and aromatherapy.

> Je me souviens d'avoir lu un texte avec une description très précise de la culture forcée de la vanille pour la famille Blair. On décrivait le terrassement des collines, des multinationales impliquées, des paysans qui n'avait plus le droit de cultiver leurs récoltes vivrières. Je ne retrouve pas le lien dans Google probablement pcq c'était dans une discussion de groupe. Je vais continuer mes recherches. En attendant voici un lien de Free Uganda qui parle du café de Starbucks, du thé de Janet Kagame et de la vanille de Tony Blair:
