What were 3 technological developments that helped banana entrepreneurs?

Answer 1

Banana is mentioned for the first time in history in a Buddhist text 600 years BC. The existence of an organized banana plantation can be found in China back in the year 200 AD. In the Middle Ages, both Muslims and Christians thought that the banana was a forbidden fruit of paradise the word banana is derived from the Arabic word " finger".

Arabian slave traders are credited with given the banana its popular name. The bananas that were growing in Africa as well as Southeast Asia were not the eight-to-twelve-inch giants that have become familiar in the U.S supermarkets today. they were small, about as long as a mans finger. Ergo the name banana, Arabic for finger. The Spaniards, who saw a similarity to the plane tree that grows in Spain, gave the plantain its Spanish name.
