Papaya

I have been reading online that Papaya trees only produce 2 or 3 seasons of good fruit and that they should be taken down after that. Does anyone have more insight on this? How true of a statement is it?

Not true that I know of. I still haven't gotten mine to fruit yet. I did have one that produced lots of fruit but none of them made it to maturity because I didn't have a pollinator. I'm hoping this year will be better. I have a bunch of plants and they are getting large enough to produce.
