Abstract
Colombia produces big quantities of banana to export,
but a quantity rated between 10% and 20% is rejected
because it does not fulfill the required quality
standards. Those rejected bananas can not be used
to feed animals, because they are containing tannins,
which are anti-nutritional substances, and then those
bananas get rotten in the farms, causing environmental
problems and economical loses for the producers. An
alternative for the use of green bananas as animal food
is the reduction of their tannin contents by the use of
solid-state fermentation, a very advantageous
procedure under economical and process efficiency
terms.
