Thanks for following.
I work with some processing companies that buys plantain (price varies according to location) and sometimes sells through my nextwork of buyers in the market.
Market is not a problem.

Where are these companies located?

Thanks for your effort @lesgupnigeria.
I want to ask you a question here. how much is dried plantain chip sold per kilo and where can I sell it to?
Just as you have encouraged on processing plantain to flour,and you rightly talked about the cost which is even higher these days of increased pump price and unfriendly economic condition, I am planning a half way processing line which will stop at drying. so i wish to sell just the dried chip. If I can be successful with that then i can complete the production line to milling and packaging.
But let me know the current price of dried chips per kilo.

Most stores and shops sell plantain flour. Spar currently sells a kg for N1,440.

Lesgupnigeria:
The major machinery and equipment for production of plantain flour are:Dryer,plantain slicer,Hammer mill with cyclone,Vibro sifter,soaking tanks and packaging machine.
The machineries can be fabricated locally to reduce cost production by Over 20%.

please what is the cost of each of these equipment..i also wanna knw the price/kg of plantain when buying from farmers in bulk..... urgently

I like this.

My passion!!!!

No o, why did you ask?

Farm is dry tho, due to the season but we planted early

Please, what specific month did you plant?

Is it advisable to plant plantain in a swamp land that dries up in dry season - meaning it is not swampy all year round.
