I passed by Kakuzi farms last month & seems the Del Monte + Kakuzi have full dams. Not sure if it is cost effective to pump water [diesel is much pricier in 2011 vs 2010] but unlike many other (smaller) farmers, they HAVE the water for 2-3 months...
What I am saying is that unlike other smaller Tea/Pineapple producers, they may survive... with higher prices for the produce...
