Banana is a highly popular fruit, sweet in taste, low in price, easy to cultivate, and high in yield. It is especially abundant when grown in tropical regions and has very broad prospects. In recent years, market demand has been relatively stable, but there are many varieties of bananas, and some banana varieties are very delicious and are recommended for farmers to plant.

1. Qiwei

Qiwei belongs to the tall-stem Cavendish banana type and is mainly distributed in Gaozhou City, Guangdong, where it is an excellent variety. Under normal conditions, the yield per plant can reach 25 to 30 kg, with a maximum of 50 kg. This variety has high yield and long fruit fingers, and is one of the varieties for export and suitable for northward transport, but its wind resistance is relatively poor, and its cold resistance and disease resistance are poor, requiring relatively high water and fertilizer conditions.

2. Dazhong Gaoba

Dazhong Gaoba banana belongs to the tall-stem Cavendish banana type. It is also called Qingshen Gaoba or Gaoba Cavendish banana, and in Fujian it is called Gaozhong Tianbao banana. It is an excellent variety from Dongguan City, Guangdong Province. It is highly popular in the market. Under normal conditions, the main-crop yield per plant is 20 to 25 kg, with a maximum of 60 kg. This variety has high yield, good quality, and relatively strong drought tolerance and cold tolerance.

3. Saigon Banana

Saigon Banana belongs to the Fenjiao type and is also known as Fensha Banana, Mi Banana, Glutinous Rice Banana, or Egg Banana. When eaten, it is full of a powdery sweet flavor. It is now widely planted in Nanning, Guangxi. Its flesh is milky white, tender and smooth, and very sweet in taste, with a slightly faint aroma. It has strong wind resistance, cold tolerance, drought tolerance, and adaptability. This variety has medium yield, excellent quality, and strong stress resistance, but its skin is thin and easily splits, and it does not store or transport well.
