5 Banana – Global Demand Source: FAO. From 2001 to 2005, global demand growth was 9.49%, corresponding to an increase of 5million tons in volume. Last couple of years, despite the low dollar value there has been a real price increase of 4% (FOB). Prices can get even higher if the product meet special quality standards and the destine is Europe.

Prices can get even higher if the product meet special quality standards and the destine is Europe. +4,25% +3,48% +0,18% +1,31% Why investing in Banana Production and Exports?

6 Why investing in Bananas in the Valley of the São Francisco River? No incidence of Chilling; No incidence of Sigatoka-Negra; Higher yields with irrigation techniques; São Francisco River has a high quality water for irrigation; Climate conditions favor product standardization; Land availability; Growth of international demand as well as the internal Brazilian market; Increase in the Brazilian competitiveness for USA and Europe exportation;
