Which country is the largest producer of bananas in the world?

Bananas got their start in or near India, and today India is the world’s largest banana producer by far, growing over 31 million tons a year. Most bananas grown in India are eaten in India. Growing regions include the northeast and the south, but the west-central state of Maharashtra leads the way.
