banana processing
Bananas are one of the special products in my country. Because of their unique aroma and flavor, bananas in my country are welcomed by domestic and foreign markets. Bananas are one of the most popular fruit crops and it is also a source of income for farmers. At present, due to the poor preservation technology and equipment conditions of bananas, the decay rate of bananas is very high, which is not conducive to large-scale storage and transportation.

Bananas can be processed into banana powder, banana jam, dried banana flowers, banana chips, banana wine, banana vinegar, banana figs, banana jam, banana peel sauce, banana peel vinegar and banana ketchup.
