“…A small size banana can provide good amounts calories of energy (Mateljan 2007) [12] . Intake of two bananas could provide energy sufficient for 90 minutes of workout (Kumar et al 2012) [10] . Consumption of two banana a day result in 10 percent drops in blood pressure within a week (Frison and Sharrock 1999) [5] .…”

Banana corm (rhizome) act as a storage material for nourishing new side shoot by providing the reserved nutrients elements present inside it. However, amounts of nutrients reserved are not known due to less interest were shown to left over corm. The experiment was conducted to evaluate the essential macronutrients elements (N, P, K, Ca, Mg and S) on fifty post-harvest banana corms of different genotypes belonging to different genomic composition. The nitrogen content in the corms of the genotypes varied between 0.10% in Lacaton (AAA) and 1.31% in Onchini (ABB), The phosphorus content in the corms of the genotypes varied between 0.03% in Jahaji Clone-I (AAA), Co-I and Madhuranga bala (ABA) and 0.34% in Onchini (ABB). The potassium content in the corms of the genotypes varied between 0.80% in Kanthali Clone-V (AAB) and 6.80% in Basrai-14 (AAA). The calcium content in the corms of the genotypes varied between 0.63% in Kanthali Clone-V (AAB) and 6.48% in Basrai-14 (AAA). The magnesium content in the corms of the genotypes varied between 0.36% in Giant Governor and 2.38% in Sindhuri Harichal both in the genomic composition AAA and finally sulphur content varies with 0.05% in Champa-II (AAB) and 1.13% in FHIA3 (ABB). Macronutrients content in the corms varies with all the genotypes. This finding may state that some banana genotypes have sufficient nutrient for promoting profuse propagules from the mother corm.

“…Biofertilizers are popular in most countries across the world since they are often regarded as ecologically benign sorts of fertilizers. These microorganisms play an essential role in plant development by providing nutrients, fighting off infections, and adjusting to stressful situations like those found in soil and changes in the weather [9].In addition, many of these species have symbiotic relationships with plants [10,11]. The term "biofertilizer" refers to either a single microorganism or a community of microorganisms that works to provide one or more nutrients necessary for plant growth in a mild form for it by converting them from the elements that are not ready to their ready-to-absorb forms, essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium [12].…”

The term “clean agriculture” refers to a kind of farming that does not include synthetic inputs like fertilizers and pesticides. Various may think that the methods of clean agriculture are one method, but they have many ways, all of which come under the development of important natural systems. Bio and organic agriculture is an integral part of clean agriculture. Bio and organic agriculture rely on well-established scientific foundations related to the natural balance in the universe. They are preserving natural resources such as soil, water and air elements in the production of clean crops, in addition to several factors that must be combined and optimally utilized in protecting crops from various disease and insect infestations, as well as taking care of the environment and preserving it from pollution.

“…It grows well in a temperature range of 15-35 0 C with relative humidity of 75-85% and is a rich source of potassium and fair source of phosphorus, calcium and magnesium (Hazarika, 2020). As a diet, banana is an affluent source of carbohydrate with calorific value of 67 calories per 100g fruit and is one of the most wellliked and widely traded fruits across the world (Emaga et al, 2008;Kumar et al, 2012). Further, this fruit possess immense potential for the improving farmers' economic status as well providing strength to poverty reduction (Shrestha et al, 2018).…”

Fruit crops are the dynamic source of nutrition, employment and income. The growth trend in area, production and productivity of Banana fruit in Nepal for 30 years (1990-2019) was estimated from secondary data using compound annual growth rate (CAGR), instability and decomposition analysis along with comparative review on benefit cost analysis with India. Tremendous high growth in world’s banana area (57.19%), production (160.58%) and yield (65.77%) were observed in time period between 1989 to 2019 A.D. India is the largest producer whereas; Indonesia represents highest yield with 55.06 mt/ha. The overall CAGR of 30 years in area, production and productivity for Nepalese Banana is 5.96%, 6.38% and 0.40% respectively which seems very positive and showing greater potentiality and need to maintain stability with significant growth in yield. Decomposition analysis resulted yield effect 86.90% and was most responsible for increasing production of banana with interaction effect 10.66% indicating that the area has been playing a driving force in the differential production of Banana in Nepal. Higher income from banana farming was observed in India, compared to Nepal. Although, study shows greater opportunity and potentiality; lack of adequate research and high yielding varieties, small farm size, poor management and post-harvest technologies, smooth value chain linkages and seasonal production and price fluctuations are the major constraints of banana sector.
