Brazil is the largest producer of bananas in Latin America, despite a decline of 2.85% in production as compared to 2019. A study conducted by the Brazilian Agricultural Research Company showed that the average Brazilian consumes 25 kilograms of banana per year and are preferred by many as they’re grown all year round, not to mention that they’re affordable, which is an important consideration for a country where millions live in poverty.
