Description:The Cavendish banana is the most widely
consumed banana worldwide. It is of Vietnamese and Chinese
origin. It is usually between *5 and *5 cm long. The
skin is green when sold to markets and later yellow when
ripe. During the ripening process sugars and the
characteristic banana aromas are produced.
Uses: Principally eaten raw, in fruit salads, baby foods, as
well as in different processed foods. This variety is also used as
a dessert.
Storage:Once bought, it is preferable not to store in the
refrigerator because they lose flavour. Once peeled, they should be
eaten immediately because they will spoil very quickly.
To speed up the banana’s ripening, you can put it into a tightly
closed plastic bag and place it somewhere warmer, like on top of
the refrigerator.
If you wish you can freeze your Cavendish bananas. You
should peel them and place them in plastic bags. Bananas can
be preserved frozen for up to six months.

Post- harvesting
In the cultivation of the BANANA, we follow the rigorous
procedures recommended to achieve the best quality fruit. That
includes the following steps:
Â
- Diameter of the fruit: measurement of the thickness of the
fruit according to the required specifications of the client and to
determine the physiological state of the fruit.
- Harvesting: the cutting of the stalk is done at the recommended
height of the psuedostem and the cut is made horizontally to reduce
the spillage of latex.
- Moving: the moving of the stalks is done by qualified personnel
trained in preserving the quality of the fruit.
- Selection: the fruit is classified depending on the various
categories of quality; the bananas are selected in accordance with
the ranges of quality as specified by each client.
- Deflowering: the flowers are picked off the ends of the
bananas, starting from the bottom and moving upwards to reduce the
possibility of latex.
- Cutting: the clusters are removed from the stalk taking care
not to damage the stems of the bananas, and damaged bananas are
removed.
- Washing: the washing time is approximately *5 to *8 minutes,
with an abundant flow of water to eliminate the latex.
Â
- Fumigation: fumigation is done to principally avoid an
anthracnose attack which lessens the quality of the fruit.
- Drying: drying is done to prevent spoilage and to heal the cuts
on the stems.
- Weight and stickering: bananas are weighed and placed on trays
until they have been filled with the required weight. Then they are
stickered.
- Packing: a plastic bag is placed in a banana box and a heavy
paper division is placed in the bag. Then the bananas are packed
following a low packing pattern, meaning that over-crowding is
avoided. Lastly, the existing air is sucked out of the bag of
bananas and the top of the bag is rubber banded shut.
Â
- Transport: the banana boxes are put on to pallets: this makes
storage and moving easier.
- Port verification: before loading onto the shipping vessel a
last verification of the product is done taking into account the
requirements of each client.
- Why is the Ecuadorian banana rated the best quality banana and
the most environmentally friendly? Banana cultivation requires special climate
and soil characteristics, among those being:
- An average temperature of *5° C (*7° F).
- Regular monthly precipitation between **0 to **0 mm.
- Light is important to guarantee photosynthetic activity in the
plant.
- Winds that do not exceed *0 km per hour.
- Flat and fertile terrain with good drainage, and a pH of between
6 and 6.5
Ecuador is a privileged country as far as these conditions
go. Average temperatures are inferior to those of the
Caribbean and there is a relatively dry season. This relates
to a lesser occurrence of plagues: the number of necessary
fumigations to maintain the quality of the fruit for exportation is
substantially fewer (*5 to *0 times per year) compared with other
banana cultivating regions like Central America and the Caribbean
which require up to *0 fumigations annually. Ecuador has an
optimum amount of daylight due to its location in the middle of the
world. Ecuador does not suffer from natural phenomenon like
hurricanes, tropical cyclones/typhoons, or strong/damaging
winds.
The banana plantations are located in tropical/humid regions with
flat and fertile terrain. The ground where the banana is
planted is of excellent texture, and among other qualities very
permeable soil which practically eliminates the possibility of soil
erosion. In contrast to other countries, Ecuador does not
need an elevated application of fertilizers which means that the
Ecuadorian banana plantations have a minimal impact on the
environment. Finally, Ecuador has regulations and permanent
controls in place with regards to labour laws governing banana
producers and workers.
All of these conditions contribute to the Ecuadorian banana being
recognized for its quality, taste, and preferred by the most
demanding markets of Europe, Asia and North America. This is
why Ecuador is the #1 exporter of bananas worldwide.
