BANANA PLANTING PROCESS

How to establish a banana plantation

Select deep well drained loam soil with high humus content. It is important to avoid acidic soils due to a lack of considerable amounts of nutrients.

Bananas can be planted on fallowed land or newly established fields.

On newly established fields, trees must be cut and some of the debris or obstacles from the forest, burnt.

On fallowed land, the field should be simply slashed and left without burning because of the useful organic matter in the soil.

A few days after slashing, the grass may be sprayed with herbicides to speed up organic matter breakdown.

After cultivation, a couple of weeks should be set aside to allow germination of weed seeds which are then killed in the next cultivation.
