Abstract: As one of the four major fruits in the world, the sustainable development ability of banana has an important role and significance for agricultural efficiency and farmers’ income. Based on 632 field research data from three banana main production areas in Guangdong, Hainan and Yunnan (here in after referred to as the three provinces), we constructed a comprehensive evaluation index system for the sustainable development of the banana industry around four dimensions, namely human capital, economy, resources and society, and evaluated the level of sustainable development of the banana industry by using the entropy value method. The results showed that, the sustainable development capacity of banana industry in the three provinces was on the low side as a whole, and there was a gap between regions, with the highest sustainable development capacity of banana industry in Yunnan Province and the weakest sustainable development capacity of banana industry in Hainan. From the perspective of the four dimensions, the resource dimension had the greatest impact on the main banana producing areas, and the social dimension had the lowest impact on the main banana producing areas. In response to the results, it was proposed that: deepened the professional planting knowledge training, enhanced the farmers’ own planting technology; increased the government’ s policy and financial support, and played the role of enterprise farmers; strengthened the construction of industrial infrastructure, and improved the industry’ s financial service system; accelerated the green development of the banana industry, and increased the supply of green agricultural and sideline products.
