๐ฟ Banana Cultivation and Harvesting
This paragraph details the process of banana cultivation and harvesting. It begins with the preparation of the field, followed by the arrangement of banana seedlings. Farmers plant the seedlings using a cultivator and maintain soil moisture through fine spray or mist to ensure adequate water supply. The growth period varies from 9 to 20 months depending on the variety. Farmers manipulate the growth by cutting the tips of banana buds to encourage cluster development. Once mature, the bananas are harvested, with care taken to leave young bananas on the plant to continue growing. The harvesting team measures the size and confirms the ripeness of the bananas before cutting them from the plant. Disease management is also discussed, with workers removing diseased leaves and applying pesticides to control pests and diseases affecting banana plants.
๐ญ Banana Processing and Packaging
This paragraph outlines the post-harvest processing and packaging of bananas. Bananas are transported to factories for immediate processing to maintain quality due to their perishable nature. In the factory, workers remove the soft cotton paper, measure the size, and clean the bananas again. Expert confirmation of freshness is followed by final washing. The bananas are then cut into smaller bunches, cleaned, and prepared for packaging. The packing process involves applying a chemical liquid to the cut stem to prevent infection, followed by sealing and container packaging. The paragraph also describes the production of banana chips, where the banana pulp is ground, fried, and packaged. The factory uses a vacuum machine to remove air from the packaging and an artificial intelligence-based packaging machine to automatically fill and weigh chip packets. Finally, the banana products are sealed with company information, manually taped for secure transit, and prepared for market sale or export.

Hello friends welcome to One dastic tech
today we'll see how bananas are
harvested and processed let's dive into
it after preparing the field the farmers
arrang the banana seedlings and stages
on the
cultivator after planting the seedlings
in the soil with a cultivator two
farmers straighten the stems of the
seedlings from the top of the
cultivator fine spray or mist is used to
keep the soil constantly moist as a
result the seeds get enough water
depending on the banana plant variety it
takes 9 to 20 months for these banana
seedlings to grow into mature banana
plants some varieties mature faster than
others a farmer cuts the tip of the
banana bud so that the cluster comes
out then when the tip of the female
flowers comes out the farmers cut some
of its parts with cuting so that the
cluster of bananas comes out very
quickly bunches develop into
full-fledged bananas and at this time
the farmers cut the big bananas
separately young bananas are left on the
raes to grow then they cut off the
flower at the end of the
raes Banana Leaf Disease the main
diseases affecting leaves are zanther
Manus Wilt ferium Wilt black and yellow
sigatoka these diseased leaves are
removed by the
workers dimethoate Dion and aate are
sprayed on Infected plants and suckers
by ground spray machines and aerial
agricultural
aircraft also workers spray methyl Deon
25 EC
0.05% separately these pesticides are
effective in controlling pests such as
aphids thpes and mites that commonly
infest banana plants they work by
disrupting the nervous system of the
insects ultimately leading to their
death for large agricultural areas a
skilled and efficient harvesting team is
essential first they measure the size of
the banana and confirm the ripeness of
the
banana it's a bunch of
bananas it is an adult banana
tree not only that but it is from the
sides of fully grown banana plants that
suckers usually grow this is the fastest
growing banana plant inside the sucker
workers carefully cut each bunch of
bananas from the plant Alias they ensure
that the cut is clean to avoid damage to
the
fruit then the workers carried Bunches
of cut bananas on their shoulders and
went to the transport area where there
is line transport to the hook of this
rope the workers tie Bunches of bananas
tightly next these Bunches of bananas go
to the washing area where workers spray
the bananas very finely with water as a
result both the germs and dirt stuck in
the banana are washed away another
worker then sticks the bananas together
so that they are not damaged so put the
soft cotton paper inside each row of
bananas in remote areas where heavy
machinery cannot be used a bunch of
bananas are harvested using this method
in addition this method requires less
time and
labor generally there are banana
factories around the banana Fields
because bananas are perishable therefore
to maintain their quality processing is
required as soon as possible they are
sent directly from the field to the
factory through a ROP line after
entering the factory the workers first
perform three tasks which is to remove
the soft cotton paper from the bunch of
bananas measure the size of the bananas
and thoroughly clean the bananas again
with water spray
next an expert cuts a banana from a
bunch of bananas to confirm its
freshness then Begins the stage of final
washing these bananas here these workers
cut the big bunch of bananas into small
bunches and throw them in clean water
they then proceed to gently place the
small bunches into clean water ensuring
that they are thoroughly clean before
further
processing
using scissors workers divide banana
bunches submerged in water into two
three or more sections and make their
stems
narrower then these bananas are filled
by the workers in the tray and when the
specified weight is confirmed the
bananas are taken to the packaging
line now we will see how these bananas
are packed in the
factory this worker is placing bananas
in certain rooms on the ceiling line as
a result when these bananas go through
the ceiling machine the bananas are
packed without any
damage gives a kind of chemical liquid
on the cut stem of the banana so that
there is no infection with the cut part
the company's sealed bananas then come
to the Factory's container packaging
room where workers fill paper containers
with these sealed
bananas first workers take a large
polythene bananas are placed in the
first row and covered with polythene and
then in the second row and again covered
with the same
polythene
then these workers take the air out of
the polythene through a vacuum machine
now we'll see how banana chips are made
in the factory from these bananas in
another part of the factory the peel of
these bananas is manually removed by the
factory workers as a result what remains
is the edible white part called the pulp
these apron clad workers press the white
part of the banana into the grinder
machine as a result those white areas
look exactly like
this then they are taken to the frying
area of the factory and fried in hot
oil later these banana chips move
through the conveyor line to the
packaging area of the factory where
workers carefully fill the containers
with
chips on the other hand but banana pulp
is cut into small pieces without
grinding and fried directly in hot
[Applause]
oil these banana chips are then fed
through a conveyor into a rotating disc
as a result the oil on the chips is
extracted and the chips are completely
dry then these chips are run through the
mixing machine to further enhance the
flavor
consequently in this case Factory
workers help arrange the chips on the
line then these chips go to the
packaging room of the factory through
the
conveyor this packaging room has a
packaging machine based on artificial
intelligence its function is to
automatically measure the weight of the
chips and fill the existing polyethylene
chip packets with the chips inside the
eyelid when these banana chip packets
are filled the workers collect those
packets and fill them in paper
containers
the containers are then stamped with the
company seal date of manufacture expiry
date and serial
number then workers manually tape the
mouths of these containers after the
containers are taped they are stacked
and prepared for transportation or
storage this manual taping process
ensures that the contents of the
containers remain secure and protected
during handling and
Transit now these bananas and banana
chips are ready for Market sale and
