BANANA PRODUCTS MANUFACTURE

Banana is a globally important fruit crop with 97.5 million tones of production. In India it supports livelihood of million of people. With total annual production of 16.91 million tones from 490.70 thousand ha., with national average of 33.5 T/ha. Maharashtra ranks first in production with 60 T/ha. Banana contributes 37% to total fruit production in India.

Banana is one of the major and economically important fruit crop of Maharashtra. Bananas occupy 20% area among the total area under crop in India. Maharashtra ranks second in area and first in productivity in India. Jalgaon is a major Banana growing district in Maharashtra which occupy 50,000 hectares area under Banana. But most of Banana is grown by planting suckers. The technology development in agriculture is very fast, it results in developing Tissue Culture Technique.

Banana is highly nutritious and easily digestible than many other fruits. Digestion time of banana fruit is less (105 min) than apple (210 min). Bananas are popular for aroma, texture and easy to peel and eat, besides rich in potassium and calcium and low in sodium content.

Moisture Content

Moisture content in pulp increases during ripening process due to respiratory breakdown of starches into sugar and migration of moisture from peel to pulp. However, in AAB variety, moisture content could be 68% due to presence of starchier balbisiana genome and incomplete conversion of starch into sugar even when banana is fully ripe; still some starch is left in pulp tissue.

Carbohydrates

During ripening process, starch is converted into sugar, through enzymatic breakdown process. In AAB group, starch content declines from 20-30% to 1-2%, but starch amount could be as high as 11% depending on variety.

Sugar content of fully mature banana is quite high that makes it an ideal substrate for wine making.

Carbohydrate type in banana is resistant starch and non-starch polysaccharides, which have low glycemic index or low digestibility. This property makes it an excellent ingredient for different functional and convenience foods like cookies and chips.
