  1. 第 1 次更新狐蝠造成损害，科夫斯海岸种植者需要的不只是网具建议当前位置

当狐蝠毁坏作物，随后又成为农场工人无法安全清除的危险时，谁能帮助种植者？

这是新南威尔士州中北海岸香蕉和浆果种植企业面临的问题。眼下的问题并非全国水果短缺，而是可销售农产品集中受损，同时种植园和作物隧道内有受困动物，且谁会提供安全清除服务、谁来承担额外防护费用，仍不明确。1

在澳大利亚时间2026年10月27日发布的一篇澳大利亚广播公司新闻报道中，科夫斯港香蕉种植者保罗·肖克估计，10月期间他农场有超过10,000根香蕉受损。这是单个种植者的估算，不是区域统计，不是香蕉串数，也不是经测量的吨位。不过，这为一家企业的损失规模提供了具体参照。1

其损害过程意味着，这不只是一个水果一夜之间被吃掉的故事。肖克说，狐蝠会伸向香蕉花顶端的花粉和花蜜，过程中会刮伤果串。香蕉可能还要在植株上留两个月左右，但其商业前景已经丧失。

他告诉澳大利亚广播公司：“几个月后我们去收获这串香蕉时，它会满是抓痕，之后就不再有市场价值，基本上我们只能把它砍掉。”水果种植工作未必会在受损时结束，但出售水果的前景却会。1

在邦维尔，食用蕉种植者米克·金特尔此前已在香蕉花蕾上套了防护袋。狐蝠却钻到了袋子下面。他还报告说，狐蝠白天会留在种植园；他说，在农场工作36年来，他从未见过这种行为，也从未见过如此严重的损害。这是一位资深种植者令人瞩目的讲述，但并非已经确立的区域历史记录。1

这些动物不能直接清除

科夫斯海岸的覆盆子和黑莓种植者也面临动物侵入受保护种植空间的问题。澳大利亚浆果协会首席执行官雷切尔·麦肯齐告诉澳大利亚广播公司，狐蝠进入作物隧道，“把浆果作物毁得一塌糊涂”。她说，有些动物虚弱无力，有些则在网中死亡。该报道没有确定浆果损失数量、金额或受影响的浆果农场数量。1

因此，麦肯齐的诉求不只是再找一种水果防护办法，而是希望州政府提供支持，安全清除人们需要在其中工作的场所里的动物。

“我认为不应由志愿者负责处理这件事，但显然，我们的会员和种植者也无法处理。”

澳大利亚蝙蝠狂犬病病毒是这项担忧背后的感染风险。这并不意味着每只狐蝠都已感染，但动物看起来无助，并不代表人们可以触碰它。新南威尔士州卫生部的一般指南指出，只有接受过培训、接种了与其工作相关的推荐疫苗并配备适当防护装备的人员，才能处理野生动物。80

中北海岸地方卫生区在2023年10月25日发布的建议中特别警告，不要触碰或处理受伤或死亡的狐蝠和小型蝙蝠。这是长期适用的安全建议，并非为这些农场新部署人员或新设援助安排。这个区别很重要：告知工人不要处理动物固然必要，但这本身并不能提供能够处理动物的人手。83

狐蝠为何进入这些作物的种植区，仍远不如它们造成的损失那样明确。有人怀疑发生了大规模饥饿事件，并提出开花树木上的花蜜稀缺可能是原因。仅凭有关动物虚弱和被困在网中死亡的报告，无法证实这一原因，也无法确定区域死亡总数。1

新南威尔士州的一般野生动物应急指南承认，花蜜或水果供应不足可能引发饥饿紧急事件。指南还介绍了与野生动物救护团体合作，救助受困狐蝠。但这两项内容都不能证明这些作物遭侵袭的原因，也不能证明已为受影响的种植者安排了具体救援措施。81

防护建议不等于清除援助

据澳大利亚广播公司报道，州环境部门建议使用隔离网作为物理屏障，称其还可防护冰雹、风、日晒损伤和鸟类。部门还列举了水果套袋、声音驱避器和照明，并鼓励种植者寻求适合其经营情况的建议。浆果种植者获建议在隧道两端加网——而水果正在损失，额外开销也随之而来。1

新南威尔士州的一般指南建议使用对野生动物友好的网，以减少动物被困。这对已经在作物网上发现受困动物的情况尤其重要。但金特尔的经历说明，指出一种防护方法，并不等于证明它适用于某个具体农场：狐蝠已经钻到了他现有的套袋下面。79 1

迄今报道的应对措施中，没有资金支持的清除方案，也没有公布援助决定日期。目前也没有独立的区域损失审计来确定损失的全部规模。这些缺失使实际应对方式和费用总额都悬而未决。1

地方损失，全国情况则不同

即使没有全国性香蕉短缺，这些损失在经济上仍可能十分严重。Freshmark首席执行官梅根·乔治告诉澳大利亚广播公司，根据她在市场上的观察，香蕉总体供应并未真正受到影响。她也对这一判断作了限定：当地买家仍可能面临采购困难。受影响的水果作物（包括浆果）总体供应被描述为稳定。1

地理分布有助于解释这种差异。澳大利亚统计局的2023–24财年数据显示，全国香蕉产量为369,000吨，其中北昆士兰占94%。仅因尼斯费尔和塔利周边地区就产出259,000吨，占全国总产量的70%。这些数据于2025年6月18日公布，是历史产量数据，并非2026年10月的产量或当前预测。19

澳大利亚香蕉种植者理事会较新的数据记录显示，截至2026年10月18日的第42周，北昆士兰发运了565,690箱，高于第41周的448,111箱。这些区域发货量是运输数据，不是零售库存。不能据此换算吨数、计算新南威尔士州受损水果的数量，或将其视为零售价格变动的证据。20

全国市场供应充足与地方企业遭受严重损失可以同时存在。对消费者而言，现有证据显示总体供应稳定。对受影响的种植者来说，尚未得到回答的问题近在眼前：谁会安全清除作物中的动物，并帮助保护剩余作物？

播出原貌 16 行
  1. Flying foxes are ruining bananas months before growers can harvest them. Affected farms are losing saleable fruit and facing a wildlife hazard their workers can't safely clear themselves. National fruit supplies remain steady, but who will help these growers remove the animals and pay for protection?
  2. Coffs Harbour grower Paul Shoker estimates that flying foxes damaged more than ten thousand individual bananas on his farm during October. That gives a concrete measure of the damage to one business. The region's total losses haven't been counted.
  3. The animals reach for pollen and nectar at the banana flower tips. In doing so, Shoker says, they scratch the bunch. The fruit can stay on the plant for another couple of months, but by harvest those scratches can make it unsaleable. He expects to have to cut damaged bunches down, losing fruit he has already spent time growing.
  4. At Bonville, ladyfinger grower Mick Gentle says flying foxes have crawled beneath bags protecting his banana blossoms. They're also staying in the plantation during daylight. In thirty-six years on the farm, he says he's never seen this behaviour or damage on this scale.
  5. Raspberry and blackberry growers on the Coffs Coast are also finding flying foxes inside protective crop tunnels. Berries Australia chief executive Rachel Mackenzie says some animals are weak and fragile, and some are dying in the nets. A mass-starvation event linked to scarce nectar is suspected, but the cause of these crop incursions hasn't been confirmed.
  6. Mackenzie wants state support for safe removal. She says growers can't deal with the animals themselves, and volunteers shouldn't have to carry the responsibility. Her request puts the immediate problem inside the farm: how to protect workers while clearing distressed animals from crops.
  7. Australian bat lyssavirus is the infection risk behind that concern. A sick, trapped or dead flying fox needs trained handling. Workers shouldn't assume an animal is safe to touch because it appears helpless. The same situation also creates an animal-welfare problem, with distressed flying foxes caught where growers need to work.
  8. NSW Health says wildlife should only be handled by trained people with the recommended vaccinations and correct protective equipment. Earlier Mid North Coast health advice specifically warns against touching injured or dead flying foxes and microbats. That remains standing safety advice.
  9. Berry growers have been advised to put netting across tunnel ends, adding another expense while they're losing fruit. The state environment department recommends exclusion netting as a physical barrier. It can also protect crops against hail, wind, sun damage and birds. Other options include fruit bags, sound deterrents and lighting, with advice tailored to each operation.
  10. The damage is concentrated on the New South Wales Mid North Coast, around Coffs Harbour and nearby farms. Australia's main banana-growing region lies much farther north, in Queensland. That separation helps explain how these growers can lose heavily while consumers still have a steady overall supply.
  11. Freshmark chief executive Meegan George says overall banana supply and market conditions haven't really been affected. She does warn that local buyers may have difficulty accessing that supply. Overall supplies of the affected fruit crops, including berries, remain steady. For consumers, that means the losses described by these farms aren't currently translating into a broader supply squeeze.
  12. Australia grew 369,000 tonnes of bananas in the 2023–24 financial year. North Queensland produced 94 per cent of that crop. The areas around Innisfail and Tully alone produced 259,000 tonnes, or 70 per cent of the national total.
  13. Those historical figures show where production is concentrated. More recent shipping figures give another measure of activity in the north. The Australian Banana Growers Council recorded an increase in North Queensland consignments in the week ending October eighteenth. Those shipments are counted in cartons, so they need to stay separate from annual production measured in tonnes.
  14. North Queensland sent 448,111 cartons in week forty-one, followed by 565,690 cartons in week forty-two. That's an increase of 117,579 cartons. These figures track regional shipments leaving growers, rather than fruit sitting in shops or damage on the affected New South Wales farms.
  15. Winemakers are watching too. In the Hunter Valley, Ivanhoe Wines' Lewis Drayton says flying foxes haven't appeared in local vineyards this season. He thinks they could arrive in January if food stays scarce. In 2017, some growers there lost sixty to seventy per cent of their crops overnight, with damaged and contaminated grapes becoming unusable.
  16. For the affected banana and berry growers, the immediate response is still crop-protection advice. General state guidance recommends wildlife-friendly netting to reduce entrapment, but Gentle's experience shows animals have already got beneath existing fruit bags. The state government hasn't announced a funded removal package or a date for an assistance decision. Growers face lost saleable fruit and added protection costs while they wait for help with safe removal.
