Ogede paranta

Hello, hivers
Good morning and a happy Thursday
I hope you had a wonderful night's rest and this new day you are up to correcting the mistakes you made yesterday and covering the gap and steps you couldn't cover yesterday, I wish you good luck as you excel.
This morning as I was sweeping our compound, my eyes glanced at a newly propagated plant beside the fence.
In West Africa particularly in Nigeria is called a Ogede paranta or Ogede wewe natively but its scientific name is Musa balbisiana depending on the hybrid.

Musa balbisiana is a plant from the monocotyledonous family Musaceae (Zingiberales family which is mostly cultivated in the rainforest region. The fruit plant is beautiful in its greenish nature of leaves.

Musa balbisiana is one of the most delicious berries among others with its rich nutritional value.

How can we cultivate bananas?
Banana, among others, is very easy and simple to cultivate but this new hybrid needs expert knowledge on planting it.
I will advise my fellow farmers to follow my step of planting bananas because it has been a great harvest season after season I must confess.
I normally dig one and half holes in the soil where I want to plant the banana, a week before planting it, I will fill the hole with animal waste like goat or pig and allow it to ferment before putting the banana suk buk on the ground.
I do cut off all the leaves on the new banana plant to give way for the new plant leaf to splash out.

My fellow farmer, my new hybrid banana doesn't need too many months to grow tall before yielding fruits as you can see in the picture below.

The medicinal function of bananas to human health
Most people don't know what benefit bananas can be to our health by eating them, especially the ripe ones.
Men with low sperm count can testify to it and boast the sex hormone that helps to last longer.
Eating ripe bananas can help in digestion and in feeling fuller.
Bananas can improve blood sugar levels and boast the heart health of a man.
Eating one to two ripped bananas per is considered a moderate and healthy potassium supply to our body.
