In our agricultural venture, we have embarked on an exciting project of planting various kinds of bananas. We have dedicated different sections of our land to cultivate five distinct varieties: Lakatan, Latundan, Bulcan, Saba, and Morado. Each type of banana has its unique characteristics and benefits, making our selection diverse and valuable.

One of the crucial aspects of banana cultivation is understanding that these plants bear fruit only once a year. This means we need to plan our planting schedule carefully so that we can harvest bananas throughout the year. By staggering the planting of each variety, we can ensure a continuous supply of bananas, which is essential for our purposes.

Feeding Support for Animals

A significant part of our banana production will be used for feeding our pigs. Bananas are not only a nutritious food source for them, but they are also an efficient way to convert crops into meat. The bananas we plant can yield bunches that weigh between 20 to 30 kilograms, and when we sell them wholesale, the price ranges from 10 to 20 pesos per kilogram. This translates to an impressive income of about 200 to 300 pesos for each tree if we sell the bananas at wholesale prices.

However, our farm’s vision goes beyond just growing bananas for sale. We also value the conversion of vegetables into meat, seeing it as a practical and rewarding process. The market price for pork typically runs around 180 to 220 pesos per kilogram, which aligns well with our farming goals.

Please, send some TINDUK

Currently, the only variety missing from our banana selection is Tindak. Introducing this variety in the future could further enhance our production and provide additional benefits.

In conclusion, our banana planting project is designed to meet both our personal consumption needs and the dietary needs of our pigs. Through careful planning and planting of our selected varieties, we aim to create a sustainable source of food and income. With the right approach, our farm will thrive, and we will have a continuous supply of bananas throughout the year.
