In the creation of the modern plantation, the unruly agency of life seems to disappear into the mass production of cash crops.  By examining the fungal histories of plantations in the Caribbean and in South East Asia during the first half of the twentieth century, this paper seeks to dispel this perception.  This essay, by thinking through global comparisons and connections across the global plantation belt, highlights the rise of a new imperial chemical regime that sought to control the rising threats to monoculture by more-than-human life.
