Agriculture is no longer a hobby....its now a business
So therefore take it as a business.
If you are investing lets say 1 million into the plantain farming business,you should be able to make profit doubling that amount invested and probably reinvested or keep the profit.
This also mean changing your mindset first that its now agribusiness and not agriculture.
Improving your skills and learning new improved methods are also very important.
Leveraging on the experience of professionals is also important as it allow you see farther than you would have seen if you are running a solo enterprise.
Re: Hidden Truths About Plantain Farming Business by Lesgupnigeria(m): 12:09am On May 17, 2015
Plantain is not subjected to price fluctuation like other crops.
It has fairly stable price whether the supply is high or low.
Re: Hidden Truths About Plantain Farming Business by Lesgupnigeria(m): 9:39am On May 17, 2015
Sometimes you are sceptical about taking some action maybe due to fear;not until when you take the first action that the fear disappear and you go on to succeed.
Success doesnot come without you taking the first step and start.
Starting out require you consult with the professional. (it is very important especially for the intending farmers).

Re: Hidden Truths About Plantain Farming Business by bettymygirl(f): 12:59pm On May 22, 2015
It's the farming season again. Get your GNLD Super Gro for a bountiful harvest this season.

GNLD Super Gro is a miracle wonder formula that increases harvest for crops, trees, and fish farmers... including other live stock!!! It is very easy to use plus it is safe to handle, non-toxic, non-caustic & non-flammable. Super Gro can be used for all kinds of agricultural crops and trees; VEGETABLES; Ugu, Spinach, Cabbage, Carrots, Okro, etc. ROOT CROPS & TUBERS; Yam, Cassava, Cocoyam, etc. FRUITS; Pineapple, Mangoes, Oranges, Pawpaw, etc. GRAINS; Beans, Rice, Maize, Soyabeans, Groundnut, etc. Super Gro can also be used to improve the quality in FISH FARMING; Catfish, etc Super Gro improves crop yield by as much as 167% How Does GNLD Super Gro Work..? GNLD’s Super Gro acts as both an adjuvant and a surfactant .On one hand, an adjuvant is an agent designed to aid in substances’ action. On the other hand,surfactants are wetting agents.It may seem contradictory, but water does not always “wet” plants and their roots very well. Thus, often it tends to bead up on the waxy surfaces of plants, lawns and gardens, and before water even has a chance to penetrate, it runs off or evaporates. GNLD Super Gro helps make water “wetter” by reducing its surface tension in addition to acting as a wetting agent. GNLD’s Super Gro helps conserve water. It tends to increase the rate at which water penetrates common soils. As a surfactant, GNLD Super Gro acts as an emulsifier to disperse oils, as a wetting agent to lower surface tension and as a dispersing agent to reduce adhesion between particles of chemicals, so they will spread and remain in solution longer. More water reaches the roots of the plant and stays there making the plant grow in lesser time! GNLD Super Gro makes other agricultural treatments a farmer uses (like fertiliser, insecticides and pesticides), perform better by helping them penetrate deeper, stick better, stay longer and work more effectively. GET YOUR APPROXIMATE MEASUREMENT RIGHT Please note that an average American football field approximately about 1.3 acres and a British or UEFA Football field is approximately about 1.7 acres. So local football fields in Nigeria may vary approximately from 1 to 2 acres of land. Also, 1 teaspoon is approximately equal to 5ml and 1 tablespoon is approximately equal to 15ml.How To Use GNLD Super Gro For Crops Vegetables, peppers, onions, yam, cocoyam, soya beans, groundnut, etc. Add 1ml of Super Gro to 1 liter of water. Agitate gently and spray on the leaves and stem of the plant. Apply every week, two weeks, three weeks or monthly before flowering. Add 20ml of Super Gro to 20 litres of water to spray 1/4 acre of land. Add 200ml of Super Gro to 250 litres of water to spray 1 hectare of land. Other Things To Note...After spraying crops with Super Gro, you may see white dots on the plant early in the morning. Do not touch it or worry about it. It attaches solar energy to the plant. Plant your crops in ridges to have a narrow site to walk and spray. After the first spray, spray again with Super Gro every 3 weeks. If you use chemicals to weed your farm, allow the effect of the chemical to wear out first before applying Super Gro i.e. apply Super Gro after four days of using weeding chemicals. If you weed manually with cutlass, pack your weeds and use Super Gro the next day.
IF YOU FARM IN NORTHERN NIGERIA WHERE THE WEATHER IS HOT, WHEN THE SUN IS UP, DO NOT SPRAY SUPER GRO ON THE PLANTS BECAUSE SUPER GRO HAS ITS OWN INTERNAL SOLAR STRENGTH.
How To Use GNLD Super Gro For Tree & Cash Crops Mango, orange, oil palm, kolanut, pineapple, rubber, cocoa, etc.Add 1ml of Super Gro to 1litre of water. Agitate gently and spray on the leaves and stem of the plant. Apply every week, two weeks, three weeks or monthly before flowering. Add 20ml of Super Gro to 20 litres of water to spray 1/4 acre of the lawn.Add 200ml of Super Gro to 250 litres of water to spray 1 hectare of the lawn. Other Things To Note For tree crops, a boom sprayer is the best for applying Super Gro. The pressure from a boom sprayer gets more Super Gro onto the crop. If you do not have a boom sprayer, use a watering can but make sure the mouth of the can is not too wide so that your product will not waste. Do try and get a boom sprayer, it is more economical. How To Use Super Gro For Fish Farming Catfish, etc. Concrete or mud ponds are most preferable. Fill the pond with water. Estimate the amount of water in the pond and add 1ml of Super Gro for every 10litres of water in the pond and agitate gently. Leave this treated water for 7 to 10days to fertilize the pond then flush away the treated water. Put fresh water and leave in the pond for 5 to 7 days then stock your fish. Super Gro is very cost effective. You only need 1ml of Super Gro for every 10 litres of water you use in your fish pond. Super Gro promotes the uniform growth of fish. Your fish become bigger and the same size. Super Gro naturally promotes the growth of plankton inside the pond and this not only prevents the death of fish, it prevents the fish from feeding each other. Super Gro also reduces how often you need to change the water in your fish pond because it increases the amount of oxygen dissolving in the pond, reduces ammonia level and maintains the natural water PH in the pond.Super Gro can be used in plastic, mud or concrete ponds. In comparison to using organic manure, Super Gro is more hygienic because it prevent odour and scurrying. Super Gro is cost effective. You only need 1ml of Super Gro for every 10 litres of water you use in your fish pond.
How To Use Super Gro For Gardening; Indoor Plants & Lawns .Add 20ml of Super Gro to 20 litres of water to spray 1/4 acre of land. Add 200ml of Super Gro to 250 litres of water to spray 1 hectare of land. This same solution will also work for garden and indoor plants. Spray on leaves and stems (as in crop plants).Super Gro can also be used for indoor plants, flower gardens and lawns. Flowers tended with Super Gro bloom faster, are richer, fresher and more appealing to the eyes. They also do not die quickly because they conserve water on their leaves, stems and roots. Indoor plants treated with Super Gro last longer in their vases or flower pots. Lawns nurtured with Super Gro have greener grass and appear richer and more luxurious. When used together with GNLD Super 10 ( a natural insect repellent), will decrease pests in flowers. In one experiment, red spider infestation of roses was decreased by 43%.When used with fungicides, GNLD Super Gro will reduce early blight in flowers. Powdery mildew in roses was reduced by as much as 35% when Super Gro was used along with crop treatment!!!

Plantain will produce well but it produces better yield when planted as a sole crop.
They will still sprout but not all of them.
My advice is to replace those one that will not sprout.

bro Lesgup while is that when u plant hybrid plantain suckers d one will grow more faster than d other one why and pls why is that some of them are not rhyme together need ur reply bro.Thks happy farming.
Thank you.
Hybrid variety has been improved upon by the crop scientist for the benefit of growing faster and producing more bigger fruit than the local variety.
For them to grow uniformly for uniform harvest,you need to purchase improved sucker seedling that's disease free and can yield more.
