Lets follow a banana from the farm (called a plantation) to the shop Click here, if you would like to follow a banana’s journey step-by-step Click here, Click here, if you want to go directly to the banana split

The plantation owners sell the bananas to the shipper. They have to pay for the care of the land and the workers on the plantation. They hire men and women to look after the plantation and to make sure the farmers do their work. The plantation owners

The work is very hard and it is very hot. The banana plants take 18 months before the bunches of bananas are ready to cut down. While they are growing the bananas have to be covered in plastic sheets to protect them from damage by the weather and by pests. Farmers have to buy fertilizers to help the bananas grow and pesticides to help protect the crop from bugs and pests. When the bananas have grown, but are still green, the farmer cuts them from the plants with a machete, washes them, and sorts and packs them in boxes. The plants then die and the farmer must grow new ones. The banana farmers

The shippers The shipper collects the bananas from the plantation. They pay the plantation owners for the bananas. They weigh them to see how much they are buying. They pack the boxes onto the ships. They transport the boxes of bananas from Ghana to Ireland in refrigerator ships. The journey takes about six days.

The ripener collects the bananas from the shippers and pays them for the bananas. The bananas are brought by lorry to the factory where they are carefully ripened for about a week. They have to be kept in special rooms at the right temperature to help them ripen. They are sorted into different sizes and packed ready for sending out to the shopkeepers. The boxes are loaded into a lorry to go to the shops. The ripeners

The shopkeepers order the bananas from the ripeners. The pay for the bananas and unpack the bananas from the lorries. They lay out the bananas so customers can see them. They put prices on the bananas and sell the ripe bananas to us. If they are not sold quickly they over-ripen and turn brown and have to be thrown out. The shopkeepers

Banana Farmers Plantation Owners Shippers Importers Ripeners Shop keepers 30c ? When you buy a banana who is the money divided between? Does everyone get a fair amount? Who should get the most? Who gets the least? Why?

Banana Farmers Plantation Owners Shippers Importers Ripeners Shop keepers 30c Do you think this is fair?

Can you see the logo on the bananas? This is a fair trade logo. It means that the people who grow the bananas get a fair price for all their hard work. Would you pay a little more for a banana so the farmers get a little bit more for their hard work?

Let's look a little closer at the Fairtrade Logo? What do you see in it?

There are many Fairtrade products that you can buy. What items can you spot?
