What is a red banana? There is a reason they are rarely seen on the market
Today, the editor is going to introduce a kind of red banana to everyone. Let's analyze together why red bananas are rarely seen on the market? What is the difference between it and the Nanyang banana of our country? Let's take a look below
1. Why red bananas are rarely seen on the market
In many people's impressions, bananas have yellow peel. If you ask whether anyone has seen bananas with red peel, then many people's answer will definitely be “never seen them”. In fact, besides yellow, banana peel also has another color, which is red. Red bananas are also sold relatively rarely on the market, and sometimes even if we see red bananas, after hearing their price we cannot bring ourselves to buy them, so very few people buy them. In this way, the quantity sold on the market becomes smaller, so naturally many people have never seen this variety. In fact, this kind of red banana only exists in Malaysia, and it is also a very rare variety. Its yield is not high either.
2. What is a red banana
1. The red banana comes from Malaysia. It is a rare variety there, and the taste of the red banana is much, much better than that of the yellow banana.
2. The reason red bananas are few is because of their growth. This red banana takes more than a year, almost 400 days, from the beginning of growth until the banana is fully grown; and during this period the banana tree has fewer than 40 leaves. This red-skinned banana from Malaysia is actually quite similar to the red-skinned banana of southern China, though there are still some differences.
3. What is the difference from the Nanyang banana of our country
Difference one:
The banana tree of southern China is nearly 3 m tall, while the tree of Malaysia is less than 1 m shorter than the red-skinned banana tree of southern China
Difference two:
The radius of its main trunk is about 40 cm, while the radius of southern China's is about 30 cm
Difference three:
Each node grows about 5 hands of bananas, each hand has about 20 bananas, and each banana is about 24 cm long and weighs more than half a jin.
The outer surface of the red banana is rusty red, so this has also become one of its selling points. Its flesh is plump and its taste is rich, and it also carries a very special body fragrance, so its price is also very expensive. Now, with the advancement of technology, the yield of red bananas is also increasing. Now each tree can harvest 31 kg of bananas, so calculating this way, one banana plantation can harvest about 3.8 tons of bananas. So here, all of today's content comes to an end. See you next time.
