    Hi, I find this so interesting and I have been looking for people or an association that is in banana farming. Am a Zambian and we have a 4Hacteres farming plot in chongwe district eastern part of Zambia. We have planted 2hacteres of the land and the Williams Banana plants are doing so well and will soon be fruiting. Our plans are to expand the other 2Hacteres by planting PLANTAIN but the problem is where to find the Plantain tissues here in Zambia. Kindly help us with information of where we can find these plantain tissues and of course market for our crops. Thank you for the above information.

    I live in Uganda & have been growing bananas in the central region for the last three years. Its very promising though quite challenging due to pests & diseases. I encourage who so ever lives in this part of the world with permanent land access to engage as banana market prices are going up everyday due to increasing demand. If you are short of suckers to start, email me at silverahimbisibwe@gmail.com.

    My company, Mighty Grow, Inc. has been providing organic, processed chicken litter fertilizer to some of the Belizean banana growers for the past 6 months. So far the results have been very encouraging. Growth and production from the treated fields are up over 10% just within the past 3 months. If you are interested in using Mighty Grow pelletized fertilizer on your farm please contact the company at: growbig@mightygrow.com.

    Am Fidel from Nairobi Kenya and i have an interest to start agribusiness at my homeland Nyamira, where banana farming is done small scale, want to lease an acre and my question is how many trees do i need to budget on and measures of storing them after harvest, chemicals used in improving productivity, the best genus and how to know it minus lab testing. please help
  • oke taiwo beginner adviser said on May 4, 2016
    Hello fidel kiago,going into banan plantation is a very good business but you will need to understand the details involved. based on your question, i may not be able to answer to your satisfaction cos there are some details i need to know from you.for storing the harvest,i will recommend you to build a cooling room that doesnt use electricity (cheaper to construct). concerning the chemical, kindly contact me and how to know the best genus is to contact your local research institute that works on banana. you can also contact a lot of local farmers far and near so as to get the best genus. You can check my website www.farmlifeng.com thanks
