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.esBanano verdeCorporación Universitaria LasallistaFermentación en estado sólidoTaninosSustancias antinutricionalesResiduos de cosechaArticle
