Thanks alot for your response.
but am planning to distroy the old suckers and replace with an improve sucker but that should be next planting season, so please can u give me the step by step procedure on how to improve my soil nutrients and water holding ability before the next planting season thanks.

If you want to clear of the sucker there to replace next planting season, it OK. That means the right time to clear off the unwanted sucker is now that the soil is still wet. After clearing with Bulldozer, plough the soil and add treated poultry manure. The poultry manure will increase microbial activities during the dry season thereby increasing the organic matter/content of the soil leading to a well moist soil.

On the other hand, if i want to be professional in my advice, I will say after clearing off the unwanted sucker, run a soil fertility test on the soil. The test we do will indicate what treatment to give to the soil. The test we do will indicate your soil :
1. Soil PH
2. soil textural class
3. Soil moisture level
4. Particle size analysis
5. soil level of micro nutrients
6. Soil level of macro nutrients
If all these is known then will can deduce why the former sucker did badly. If you do not try to ascertain the fertility of the soil, it may erroneous to just start treating the soil.

A good viable and hybrid sucker is not only the condition that ensure increased yield, but also condition of the soil cum environmental factors.

We hope this help...otherwise feel free to ask further Qs .
cheers!!

pic below is the current state of our experimental farm. It been taken over by weed since 2months ago weed was controlled using herbicide......

At the moment workers are on the farm weeding manually and hipping sand round the suckers in preparation for the dry season... we will post the new farm look after weeding and also explain why it important you cover the root of the sucker with sand

Jethrova tree that lapalapa leaf

yeah

so sorry about the damage....but have you hear of the plant called "Hospital is near"? ....that what you need to plant round the farm. The plant is known as Jethrova tree( not sure of the spelling) ...if the cow by mistake chew the leaf, it will purge to death.

the cattle man will not even slow the cow get close to any bush/farm they see the plant.
make further investigations and give it a try

Thanks alot and God bless but please how do I treat the manure?

just apply pesticide by spraying the poultry manure and the dry it up before application.

When, How and why you should add Limestone to your farm soil

When: Liming recommendations for managing pH are always based on a soil management approach. Limestone is recommended based on the measured soil pH, the desired soil pH for the crops grown and the acidity level of the soil as measured by the test. Generally, limestone recommendations are for an application every few years to maintain the soil pH in the optimum range for the crops being grown. The limestone recommendations must be adjusted for the quality of the limestone being used. The most important limestone quality parameters are calcium carbonate equivalent and fineness.

How: It can be applied by professionals who will base the application on the outcome of the soil PH test....do not try it if you have not done your soil PH test. over liming intoxicate the soil leading to poor yield.

why: You should add limestone to the soil to ameliorate the soil PH base on the crop to be planted. Various crop survive more in different soil PH.
If you planning to develop that dormant land of yours next planting season, the time to test the soil fertility is now!!!

A visit to a farm close to Bene Republic to collect soil sample for a soil fertility testing.

ok but can organic manure do alot good to the soil to get it ready for the next planting season?.
cos I have enough poultry manure thanks

Very good idea....if you have a well treated poultry manure just apply. it will improve microbial activities in the soil and increase the agonic matter in the soil. It will also Introduce NPK at the long run. Avoid bush burning if you have to clear the farm land.
cheers!!

I have planted plantain twice but non did well,and am still interested in having a plantain plantation but am still yet to be convinced on hw to get a good sucker that will do well and bear big and good fruit.

Am sorry about the poor yield. But I must say how well your sucker grow, depends on the following factors:

1. the nutrient composition of your soil. Plantain produce high yield in a soil rich in Potacium...did you do a soil analysis to ascertain the level of NPK in your soil?
2. How well your farm soil retain moisture enough to sustain the sucker through the dry season
3. The variety of sucker u have been planting. Our suckers is Musa spp and has stand the test of time
4. How well you fertilize the soil
5. The population of sucker on the farm land
6. The textural class of your soil
7. The soil PH of your soil....if you are planting plantain on an acidic soil, your plantain will never survive. Plantain strive better in alkaline soil.

So in all, my advise is do all you can to keep these above factors to your advantage and a bountiful harvest is yours.

You can get the soil ready for the next planting season by first hiring us to help you testing for the fertility of the soil. The test outcome will indicate what treatment your farm soil needs.

good luck
