I’m thinking about the meat industry for example. Sure, there are a lot of farmers, sure they have a lot of animals on each farm, but to me it seems people consume meat at a higher pace than an animal has time to grow to be an adult before it is made food.
Same I am wondering for bananas. It takes some time for it to grow, and if millions are a regular consumers, how can we still have so much available?

It’s somewhat like cutting your hair. You lose a lot of hair, but you’re producing so much that the lost hair is a small portion of the overall hair.
If humans eat, say, a million bananas a month, and bananas take a year to grow (numbers made up for demonstration).
That means if you have 12m bananas, you cover the whole year. All you need to make sure is to have 12m bananas to start with, and to produce 12m every year. Taking a year to grow only affects how many you need to grow at the same time.
