Say that 123 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 3: is correct. We do not grow bananas in South Australia, 124 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 3: but we do bring them down from Queensland and we 125 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 3: ripen them here and everyone loves a banana. 126 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's a great thing for the yellow brick row. 127 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: Okay, I need to pick you up on something. You 128 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: bring them down to ripe in here. I suppose you 129 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: can't wait for them to ripen there because then they'll 130 00:04:59,279 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: be too right. 131 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's also a bio security thing, so yeah, 132 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 3: so if they come down in a green state, they 133 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 3: won't pick up any fruit fly or anything along the way. 134 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 3: So it's actually a bio security measure that we bring 135 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 3: our bananas down nice and green. They're very hard, very 136 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 3: green when they come down, and then we put them 137 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 3: into ripening chambers before we put them into the fruit 138 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 3: invent stores. 139 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: What does that look like. It's a ripening chamber. 140 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 2: Oh, it's just it's just like a big dark room. 141 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: Really. 142 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 3: They put a whole truck full of palettes of bananas 143 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 3: in there, and depending on how ripe, the stores want them, 144 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: because different fruit ben shops will want them at different ripeness, 145 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 3: so they can you know, gauge it and set it 146 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 3: at different ripenesses and they put some I forget what 147 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 3: the gas is called, but they do have to put 148 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 3: some sort of gas in there to ripen them. The 149 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 3: same thing with avocados that come in and in that 150 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 3: state as well. 151 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so when when they're picked to get down here, 152 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: they need to come down and come down pretty quickly, 153 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't they. 154 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean they say they stay in that 155 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 3: really green state for quite some time. 156 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 2: But yeah, it is quite a business. 157 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 3: We have quite a number of businesses at the Paraka 158 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 3: markets that will ripen bananas and avocados. So it is 159 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 3: part of our economy here and keeps a vegetable industry going. 160 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: Absolutely, will they ripe it without the gas something naturally. 161 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 2: They will take quite some time. 162 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, So it's been like or I guess if you 163 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 3: put it next to an avocado, they might as well. 164 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 3: So all of the fruits actually naturally give off a 165 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 3: gas anyway. So if you ever get a banana or 166 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: any other piece of fruit and avocado or you know, 167 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 3: a nectarine or anything and you want it to ripen 168 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 3: a little bit quicker, you need to leave it out 169 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 3: on the bench and you put it in a fruit 170 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 3: bowl with something else, and that will help to speed. 171 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 2: The process up. 172 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: Certainly, I know that much. 173 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 3: Yes, So I always leave mine out in the fruit 174 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 3: bowl until they're ready, and then I put them in. 175 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 2: The fridge because once you put them in the fridge, 176 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 2: they'll last for ages.
