I don't know about the banana industry, but there are 98 trade associations, representing the country's largest manufacturing and agricultural trade groups that say U.S. dollar "is not becoming too weak...In fact, the dollar is still too strong."

Don't you think they have a bit of a conflict of interest?

No. The high dollar encourages US imports and discouraged US exports.
