Domestic Cavendish Banana Demand and Price in Indonesia Continue to Rise

Indonesian Cavendish banana plantations enjoy an increasing trend in demand and price. Currently, the domestic supply is mainly from small farmers who own plantations as large as 1-2 hectares. However, several large plantations have also entered a period of productivity. The domestic demand will remain high, resulting in high prices, for Cavendish bananas as the government regulates banana imports.
