What is Dwarf Cavendish and it belongs to which cultivar?

Dwarf Cavendish

Dwarf cavendish is the cultivar of banana. Dwarf Cavendish is the primary commercial type grown in Maharashtra, Bihar, Gujarat, and West Bengal for food and processing. Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu are some other states where it is grown. In Maharashtra, it’s one of the most popular banana kinds and is the most popular commercial variety all across India.

The fruit has a great appearance, but it will spoil quickly because of the poor quality of the bunch, length, and size. There are usually six to seven hands in a bunch that weighs 15 to 25 kg, and each hand has around 13 fruits. Fruits maintain some of their greenish colors even after they are fully ripe.
