Long Life Bananas is the Banana Farm's path 2 tier 1 upgrade in Bloons Monkey City. It causes its bananas to last for 10 more seconds before they disappear. This increases from 15 seconds to 25 seconds in the mobile version, or from 10 seconds to 20 seconds in the Flash version.

Strategy

Spending money for convenience this minor is not at all worth the money, but can be useful on the Flash version where the banana lifespan is rather short. It is advisable not to waste money on it in the early game, as one should focus on building more farm income instead.

On the Mobile version, the Banana Farmer makes this upgrade completely obsolete, as the farmer will collect all bananas automatically without worrying about lifespan.
