I commend you for your passion and excellent work as well as for your top agronomical advice. But please sir, avoid cutting off your plantain leaves before they become yellow. You need as many healthy green leaves as possible. We get carbohydrates from photosythesis taking place in the leaves.
Nope, pruning leaves are very beneficial as it redirects nutrients for leaves to Food Production. The question is, what is your objective? More leaves or Gigantic yield? I'm a Farmer and have a banana field , what I do is I prune the older leaves,that means I trim from bottom leaves to top leaving at least 6 leaves per plant. It helps in air circulation too, and guess what photosynthesis will still occur as long as there's presence of water and sunlight. Thanks
Thank u for the sharing _ am also a banana farmer in Uganda I want to share to u that next time you are digging the banana holes make sure thy about 3by 3 so tht the banana does not not come on the top faster because we know tht banana root feed on the top layer .thank
Thanks friend, they play a good roll during the development and yielding of the plant. But they are more beneficial when burnt and applied as wood ash; in this case they can massively boost your banana yield. I will make more research while I teach and throw more light on that.

To plant your suckers, please prepare your hole in this size: 1ft deep, and at least 30inches in diameter. This is ideal for suckers less than 3months old.
I really appreciate your work and I feel inspired. From a 4 plots of Land like yours which of the Banana or plantain is best to cultivates, for the Well you dig are you going to use pumping machine for the Irrigation? Also like what is the return will look like I mean approximately per harvest from this 4plots. Thank you
Thank you greatly, I appreciate you immensely. You have smart questions here, alright, cavendish banana is good variety, this is what I have in my farm and they’re wonderful. For irrigation, yes I will install water pump, which will be connected to a tank. drip irrigation is very nice due to water conservation; this will save your farm lots of water. For your return on investment, I will love to know your location but I will advise you start first while you learn from experience.
You are right, I did same and am not happy with the yield I got, so I have resolved to only prune yellowish or dry leaves…. Remember when I wasn’t pruning my yields were great
Sir, thanks so much for this video,have really benefit alot from it.Plz i have a question,the water in the underground tank,did you get it from the zinc you use in covering the tank???
thank you for the information,you shared with us,3rd year growing bananas in the northern part of USA have about 50 plants,drawf cavendish and grand nain,many are going to fruit now
Greetings from here friend, good to know you’re doing great as a banana farmer. You’ve got good varieties of banana plants. Wishing you the very best. I have basically cavendish, known as (iron seed banana) here in eastern Nigeria.
When u advised chemical fertilizer i ckicjed dislike and exited. Try learning about the soil food web yr life will never be thr sane. Dr Elaine's soil food web school. U are so behind bro

Thanks for excellent delivery.
You’re welcome 🙏🏼
The leaves helps in manufacturing food through photosynthesis when they still green. You are not supposed to cut them please
The Leaves can be cut, it will never harm the banana whatsoever
I appreciate the info, sound was really low.
Thanks a bunch, please do check your device volume or tune up the volume more, my volume is blasting from my end.✌🏽
Do you live in your farm? If No how do you protect your farm against criminals because ours is fenced but they break the fence and steal from us
So sorry about that, I do not live in my farm, it’s fenced and free from thieves.
You have done a good job. Please how do empty palm fruit bunches benefit the banana/plantain plants?

GOOD work. but i can see that you prune the fresh leaves too, in that case it may shoot small bunches. prune the dry ones only. thank you.
Thanks 👍
Smiles. He did a good thing by prunning them that way. If you want a good yield from whatever you plant, you must prune.
You are right, I did same and am not happy with the yield I got, so I have resolved to only prune yellowish or dry leaves…. Remember when I wasn’t pruning my yields were great
