Today is a great day, I feel a change in the air! :-) And why not to change anything and on this blog, and do not add here a new article? Yet I long article about the production of chocolate vowed here to add a short documentation as produced "Sorry, import 'bananas. Maybe it will be someone interesting. We did a tour of the banana farms during their stay in Costa Rica miss left!
Bananas bedroom pictures are the best selling and most popular fruit in the world, the annual turnover on sale exceeds $ 8,000,000,000. Along with grain, sugar, coffee and cocoa are among the most important article of international food trade. The European Union is the largest importer of bananas in its territory is consumed almost 40% of world trade in bananas. The average German consumes annually about 25 kg of fruit, Swede 16.5 kg, a resident of North America about 13 kilograms, more than double the consumption of apples.
In Europe, it will foster less than 20% of the quantity of bananas which are consumed. bedroom pictures 60% is imported from Latin America, the rest of Africa and the Caribbean, mostly from the former European bedroom pictures colonies. The banana trade is in the hands of a few multinational companies. The largest is the American Chiquita, which deals with about one-third of the world banana market. As soon as it is a company Dole, which together with Chiquita bedroom pictures indicate global banana prices. The third largest bedroom pictures company is a multinational company Del Monte.
And just one of the many plantations last mentioned companies we visited and we with Lucka 1. The first thing you upon arrival at the plantation notice bananas wrapped in blue bags. They are perhaps spoiled? NO! To this yellow sweet sweet fruit be on the table as soon as possible, bedroom pictures it is necessary to keep the banana in the environment of the same humidity and temperature. And precisely for this purpose (and, together with some protective sprays, which contains the polythene) are blue bags.
2. I always wondered what it looks like fruit banana. Yes, yes, because we have it in Tesco, bedroom pictures I know! But to choose this healthy sweet actually grow? It's such a larger red flower, which at one end of the small shoots begin to grow, it is the bundle of "blonde hair" between the thumb and forefinger bedroom pictures of our sprievodkyne.
3. They grow, grow up from these small growths formed bunch of green banana. bedroom pictures If you have them in the picture "notice", to show them the finger: P. In Costa Rica we have learned to distribute three types of bananas, classic, what we have at home, baby bananas that are so tiny and extremely sweet. A plane trees, which are not intended for direct consumption, but further heat treatment. In Slovakia, before we Telkom chips, Kostaričania can be roasted bananas (once I even got these bananas instead of fries at burger in Panama) That is a great tasting and healthier alternative, and I only can confirm.
4. Bananas themselves bedroom pictures from the trees in the box drop. And for that we have human capacities. The young man pulls a large bunches of bananas hanging on steel wire. I'll tell you one such volume, respectively. strain is damn heavy. And therefore they are around each banana plantations such sliding mechanisms. During collection at not just hang a banana into the goal already get some.
6. Gradually separating them into a suitable cleaning fluid. BTW most of the employees are Nico, that immigrants from Nicaragua, logically because it's cheaper labor. The average salary for a banana plantation is about $ 600 a month. But they are also paid piecework namely by small groups that have shift. Who is faster, has the fatter wallet ...
8. Nice to wash them. Many probably wondering what kind of fluid. About to disappoint you, but pure water is not. It is a mixture of chlorine and other cleaning chemicals (compared the tour guide to the Savu). However it seems drastic, if you do not want us to home in the kitchen started to run around some tropical bedroom pictures vermin, it is important to properly clean the bananas from various bacteria and small insects. bedroom pictures Also bananas at one end extremely sticky and this property during this process come.
9. Nah, the young man does not use up any application for counting bananas. Probably facebook, like most people of this country. Billboards promoting mega-fast, 4G mobile network I've seen on every corner. But now things employees on this picture rotten bananas separated from the rest and throw them on the treadmill. Export get only the most perfect pieces. No one wants to risk that some spoiled during transportation.
12. And now onto lorries to transport. What surprised bedroom pictures me is how the whole process is quick. After being picked bananas from the large volume (I'm not entirely sure if there on those volumes worth more, or be processed on the same day as they are plucked from the tree), will take place just a few hours and you are coming by truck. Nowhere unnecessarily or store. Ask them quickly get to the target bedroom pictures destination bedroom pictures to spoil.
Finally, one more photo where you can see the labels vyobrazujúce employees the same organic banana farms. Cool, is not it? Too bad that the
