The quality of banana powder is determined by the colour, flavour, texture and moisture content. These are affected by the varieties of bananas and processing operations specially blanching process. Good quality powder is produced from the bananas of right variety and degree of ripeness. The dry powder can be used as an additive in confectioneries, milkshakes and baby foods.

Global demand National Scenario India is the fruit and vegetable basket of the world. India produces 54% of world’s mango, 23% banana, 24% cashew nuts, 36% green peas and 10% onion production. India is the largest producer of banana in the world. Maharashtra accounts for 25% of banana production in India, followed by Tamil Nadu (20%), Gujarat (15%), Karnataka (10%) and Andhra Pradesh (10%). The major banana producing states of India are Tamilnadu, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Assam and Madhya Pradesh. In India, Banana is available all through the year all over the country. If it is converted into powder or other form with the help of technology, then not only a massive wastage of this fruit could prevented but more demand for the fruit could also be generated, because demand for individual products can be increased if they are offered before or after the season. International scenarios Bananas are the fifth largest agricultural commodity in world trade after cereals, sugar, coffee and cocoa. India, Ecuador, Brazil and China alone produce half of total bananas of the world. The advantage of this fruit is its availability round the year. The present scenario the productivity of World is 115.20 T/ha where as that of India is 30.63 T/ha. Banana powder and pulp is largely used in the baking and confectionery, and baby food industries. The Indian food industry is estimated to be worth over US$ 200 billion and is expected to grow to US$ 310 billion. By 2015 India is one of the world’s major food producers but accounts for only 1.7 per cent (valued at US$ 7.5 billion) of world trade in this sector this share is slated to increase to 3 per cent (US$ 20 billion) by 2015. Since the applications and demand of banana powder is immense therefore the potential of the product is excellent. It is one of the imperative fields to endeavour.

Description:
Good quality banana powder is produced from the bananas of right variety and degree of ripeness. Immature or over ripe fruits should be excluded from the bulk. Thus, by developing a number of value added products, banana could be developed as an industrial crop generating recurring and consistent demand for this crop. Only 0.05% of domestic production is exported and the rest is consumed within the country mostly as a table fruit. The Indian food industry is estimated to be worth over US$ 200 billion and is expected to grow to US$ 310 billion. By 2015 India is one of the world’s major food producers but accounts for only 1.7 per cent (valued at US$ 7.5 billion) of world trade in this sector – this share is slated to increase to 3 per cent (US$ 20 billion) by 2015. India is one of the world East world’s major food producers but accounts for less than 1.5 per cent of international food trade. This indicates vast scope for both investors and exporters. There is good domestic and export potential for banana by-products. New entrepreneurs can well venture into this sector.
