香蕉原产于热带的马来群岛及澳洲北部地区，最早可能是在巴布亚新几内亚驯化 。至少有107个国家生产香蕉。种植香蕉主要是为其果实，偶尔会用作纤维、香蕉酒、香蕉啤酒或园艺植物。2013年香蕉是产值第四大的食用植物，仅次于米、麦及玉米。

The banana is an edible fruit, botanically a berry, produced by several kinds of large herbaceous, flowering plants in the genus Musa. In some countries, bananas used for cooking may be called plantains. The fruit is variable in size, color, and firmness, but is usually elongated and curved, with soft flesh rich in starch covered with a rind which may be green, yellow, red, purple, or brown when ripe. The fruits grow in clusters hanging from the top of the plant. Almost all modern edible parthenocarpic (seedless) bananas come from two wild species – Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. The scientific names of most cultivated bananas are Musa acuminata, Musa balbisiana, and Musa × paradisiaca for the hybrid Musa acuminata × M. balbisiana, depending on their genomic constitution. The old scientific name Musa sapientum is no longer used.
