Banana is the world’s largest fruit crop with an annual global production of around 140 million MT.  India is the world’s largest banana producer with an annual production of over 30 million MT from approximately 0.8 million hectare, generating livelihood for millions of farmers.

JISL has played a vital role in bringing advanced technologies to farmers and selling more than 70 million tissue cultured banana plants with micro irrigation system to the farmers every year.  To complete the agri-value chain, JISL also buys back significant quantities of banana from the farmers for export as well as processing.

The research work will go a long way in improving the productivity and the quality of banana plants.
