Best Answer

Southeastern Asia dominates the world production of pineapple, not a US state. The highest producing state of pineapple in the United States is Hawaii, though they do not grow 75% of the world's pineapple by any means.

If you mean 75 of the world's types of pineapples, then I would still have to say Hawaii is the answer, as the largest US pineapple plantations still reside there, on Maui and Oahu.

Well, the pineapple is native to southern Brazil and Paraguay where wild relatives occur. It was spread by the Indians up through South and Central America to the West Indies before Columbus arrived. In 1493 Columbus found the fruit on the island of Guadaloupe and carried it back to Spain and it was spread around the world on sailing ships that carried it for protection against scurvy. The Spanish introduced it into the Philippines and may have taken it to Hawaii and Guam early in the 16th Century. The pineapple reached England in 1660 and began to be grown in greenhouses for its fruit around 1720.

Pineapple can be grown in many tropical and subtropical areas such as the Philippines, Thailand, Costa Rica, Indonesia, and Brazil. Pineapple is an important crop in Hawaii, the only US state which produces it.
