Red Banana .. Do you know its great health benefits?

Bananas are one of the most popular meals in the world, and are among the best-selling types in the agricultural sector, as traders call them the “spoiled child”, and consider them one of the best products they trade, due to the great demand from part of consumers for them.

Despite the great popularity of bananas around the world, a small number of consumers realize that there are dozens of types of bananas, each of which has a different shape, color and taste, and among these types, the “red banana” is limited in scope.

Red Banana “has a sweet taste that combines a blend of bananas and berries”.
It usually takes about 9 months to reach maturity.
Among the most famous countries that cultivate it, there are India, China, Costa Rica, Mexico and some African countries such as Tanzania and Zanzibar.
Contains carotenoids, the pigment that gives it its characteristic red color.

Why is its diffusion limited?

The weak point of the red banana, which makes it difficult to market it in the world and its very limited distribution, is that “its prices are about 10 times the price of yellow bananas”.

Red bananas also have a “longer shelf life than yellow bananas” as they should be stored out of direct sunlight and should not be refrigerated.

What does it take to grow red bananas?

“The process requires sufficient agricultural experience and tropical climate, and these two factors limit the possibility of its cultivation in various countries of the world.”
