Banana-pro-bag
Use discarded banana leaves into banana bag and banana fiber ropes to protect the fruits.
How does it work?
Banana-pro-bag uses cradle-to-cradle design to regenerate a large number of discarded banana leaves and banana trees in the process of planting into banana paper bags and banana fiber ropes to protect the fruits. It not only solves the problem of huge agricultural waste, but also prevents fruit damage through the waterproof, high hardness and strong toughness characteristics of banana paper, and achieves an environmentally friendly cycle through recycled manufacturing. The ethylene secreted when bananas are ripe is naturally discolored by the test paper to identify the fruit maturity. The illustration reminds banana farmers of harvesting, deworming and other actions. When bagging, banana farmers only need to stand in place and pull the rope down to tighten the bagging, greatly reducing physical exertion and reducing the risk of operation.
Why is it needed?
1. The huge agricultural waste of banana leaves and banana trees breeds pests and diseases and hinders operations According to research, only 12% of the fruits of the banana are used during the process. Worldwide, about 114.08 million metric tons of banana waste-loss are produced, leading to environmental problems such as the excessive emission of greenhouse gases. 2. The different quality of banana fruit bag leads to pests and diseases The existing banana bag materials cannot effectively prevent the ravages of pests and natural disasters. Among them, the most pathogenic banana yellow leaf disease has caused huge economic losses. According to the survey of banana sample farmers in the Philippines, the annual loss is about 917 million US dollars. 3. The banana tree is too high to be easy to set and replace the bag Banana plants are mostly located at high altitudes, so banana farmers need to climb ladders to set and replace them every time.
How does it improve life?
1. Use waste banana leaf recycling banana bag Recycle agricultural waste into an important tool in the planting process, and improve the color and beauty of the fruit and export it. 2. The process of setting can be completed remotely The long rope on the bag allows the banana farmer to easily complete the suit by simply standing on the ground and stretching. 3. Fruit maturity index diagram Through the color change of the test paper, it can help banana farmers to identify the maturity of the fruit, and open the bag in time to check the quality. 4. Bring high convenience and high-efficiency operation quality to banana farmers, which is in line with the second item to eliminate hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture. 5.Solve the problem of huge agricultural waste and conforms to Item 12 to ensure a sustainable consumption and production model: before 2030, the generation of waste will be significantly reduced through prevention, reduction.
