Abstract

As a result of considering banana as one of the fruit crops that contribute to a large and important role in the economy of many countries in addition to its nutritional value for humans, so the importance of studying it and knowing the most important reasons affecting its productivity and quality was its advancement as a crop that occupies a great position in international trade. It was found that many factors that affect this crop, such as the environmental conditions, represented in high or low temperature, air humidity, and wind, in addition to the soil factor. Furthermore, to the use of good practices represented in the selection of high–yielding varieties, appropriate cultivation distances for varieties used, balanced fertilization, and appropriate disease as well as pest resistance methods. In addition, irrigation methods are consistent with the conditions of cultivation. All these factors contribute effectively to increasing crop productivity and improving its quality.
