Banana Plantain Engulf With Fire by ojayone(m): 7:42pm On Mar 18, 2021 |
I got a call that my banana plantain engulf my whole farm and that if others in ondo state. My question is, does fire kill the plantation? Or it just affect it for the year and I expect it to regerminate by itself and production can start the next year. Reason is that I was told we need to clear the burnt and restart afresh. Please I need expert advice |

ojayone:It's a blessing in disguise. Pray it rains early.the rate at which healthy suckers will sprout will surprise you.the fire have just refertlized the farm.though it will delay fruiting but expect bountiful harvest in due course. |

GreenApples:Na waa o.why saying what you are not sure of? Fire don't kill banana or plantain.be very sure of things b4 commenting sir.some farmers deliberately set old plantain farm ablaze to kill pests and transform the farm.there was fire outbreak in my farm in January which burn many young plantains.as am typing rite now,no one die.all have sprout again looking healthy. |

tosine4ubodmass: Must you quote me. Have you seen heavy intense fire engulf a plantain farm Please don't quote me again on this forum |
Re: Banana Plantain Engulf With Fire by GreenApples: 3:51pm On Mar 21, 2021 |
ojayone: If the burning is heavy, the quality of your fruits will be affected. Start afresh. The ash and carbon in the soil will help it grow better |

GreenApples:Your comment is misleading. So that's why I quoted you.I repeat,there is no way fire will destroy a plantain farm to the point of starting afresh. |

tosine4ubodmass: Oga I've been selling plantains for over 8 years and I have large expanse of land with plantain. Keep your comment off my mention. |

GreenApples:Only those that have attained fruiting stage will be adversely affected. In fact ,it will waste them but expect bountiful harvest from the new suckers. Note this:one of the best way of rebranding a old plantain farm is setting on fire.. My advice to the person, leave the farm,ensure regular weeding n u will come here with testimony. Speaking from what I practice. |

GreenApples:Even you might be selling for 50 years. Am telling you what have experienced.thank you |
