Environmental Factors / Conditions that affecting the yied of Plantain Fruits

If you buy your Hybrid Plantain Suckers from us you must have 8-9 months of growing for the plant to produce Fruits. Unless one of this environmental conditions occurs. These are: Cold, Shade and Drought.

Cold weather prevents the growth of Plantain. The entire period of growing of plantain must be frost free. Plantain plant in chillier countries such as Russia, Canada and many more, experience chilling injury which could include a failure of fruiting portion to emerge. As a result of this, the growth of fruit may be delay till condition become favourable.

Shade, as a tropical plant, plantain prefer full sunlight. Growing plantain in partial shade is not recommended because not enough sun may lengthen the time it takes before the plantain produce fruit.
So if you have big trees inside your farm, I strongly advise you to cut it down or not to plant under it.

Drought:
Drought conditions are hard on plantain plant extreme drought may keep the fruit from appearing on the the plant. This condition is also call choking condition we observed this in dry weather. It is important to keep watering your plantain regularly.

Let take advantage of weather condition in Europe and America for not able to have plantain in large quantities and plant this crops in large quantities and export it to serve as foreign exchange earning for this country.
