Banana Industry Pilot Demonstration Studies For Philippine Journal of Crop Science 2003, 28(2): 31-43 Copyright 2005, Crop Science Society of the Philippines Released February 2005 BANANA PILOT DEMONSTRATION STUDIES FOR BUKIDNON: TABLE SALT & EARLY DEBUDDING To CONTROL `BUGTOK' DISEASE OF COOKING BANANA CULTIVARS 'SABA' & `CARDABA' 1 HERMINIO M PAVA, 2 NONITO S FRANJE & 3 TERESITA J TIMARIO 'Agronomist and Scientist III, 2 Plant Pathologist and Scientist II, 3 Research Assistant, Central Mindanao University, Musuan, Bukidnon, Philippines 2001 Beyond the target 10 ha, the project was able to establish and maintain 14 ha as demonstration field on how to prevent `bugtok' (causal organism Pseudomonas solanacearum) infestation in a banana plantation. In the fourth year, this project produced 2,489 bunches although some were just planted about a year ago or an increase of about 136% from the previous. The package of technology, which comprised bagging, early debudding and application of sodium chloride (table salt) at flowering, was found as an overall effective alternative for the prevention of the `bugtok' disease of 'Saba' and rardaba' banana cultivars in Bukidnon. Based on the results of the study, a monograph was published as extension material and massive trainings were conducted as part of a campaign to prevent `bugtok' in the area. Participants from 20 barangays from 11 municipalities of Bukidnon, 4 in Misamis Oriental and 1 in Camiguin received training on the CMU package of technology, for a total of 972 participants during the 4-year study. Another component of the project was the production of disease-free planting materials by tissue culture. Subsequently, the explants were planted side by side with suckers by 2 farmers. In the 4th year, the results confirmed previous findings that planting materials from tissue culture performed better than suckers, as they produced more suckers, flowered earlier, grew bigger bunches and had more hands per bunch. On the impact of the package of technology, a survey showed that from 75 ha planted to 'Saba' in 1998-1999, the area had increased to 490 ha in 1999-2000, an increase by more than 553%, indicating grower confidence in the technology.

    Through the Zone of Nonbeing: A Reading of Black Skin, White Masks in Celebration of Fanon’s Eightieth Birthday* LEWIS R. GORDON Introduction anon was an ironic writer who was struggling with the complex question of paradoxical reason Fand paradoxical history. The modern collapse of “Reason” and “History” into all things European represented a failure of Reason and History that required self-deception regarding Europe’s scope. Put differently: Europe sought to become ontological; it sought to become what dialecticians call “Absolute Being.” Such Being stood in the way of human being or a human way of being. It thus presented itself as a theodicy. Theodicy is the branch of inquiry that attempts to account for the compatibility of God’s omnipotence, omniscience, and goodness in the face of injustice and evil. There are several formulations of the problem: If God has the power to do something about injustice and evil, why doesn’t He? If God has created everything, and God is perfect, how could God create imperfect (often evil) beings? If God has foreknowledge, how could we continue to insist on God’s goodness when He had advanced knowledge of the consequences of his creation? There have been many classical efforts to address this problem. The most influential has been St. Augustine’s insistence, in The City of God, that God’s love for humanity required human freedom, and freedom requires the ability to do right or wrong. The problem does not only emerge in the Western tradition. Among the Akan of Ghana, for instance, the problem emerges as well, and solutions similar to St.

  • History of the Banana
    History of the Banana Bananas: The Same The World Over Banana is the common name for the fruit and herbaceous plant that is part of the genus Musa. Bananas are one of the world’s oldest and most popular fruits. They are very nutritious, generally inexpensive, and readily available. The banana plant is a large flowering plant that grows 6–7 meters tall. Each plant produces a bunch of bananas from a flowering stem. Whether eating a ripe banana in the United States or in Europe, these store-bought bananas tend to taste the same. Part of the banana’s popularity is due to its predictably delicious flavor. However, the uniformity that makes the banana so popular could also lead to its demise. A bunch of bananas hangs from the main stem of the Banana History plant. As humans’ hunter-gatherer ancestors roamed the jungle collecting food, they ignored the bananas they found. Wild bananas, which flower and reproduce sexually, produce hard seed cases with inedible seeds inside. Occasionally, prehistoric humans found fruit on wild banana plants that did not contain seeds. These seedless bananas, when peeled, contained sweet, edible flesh. This is the edible banana that people know and enjoy today. Today’s edible banana is a genetic mutation. The mutation produces tasty fruit but prevents proper seed development. The dark lines sometimes seen after biting into a banana are the stunted seeds. Banana Sexual Reproduction In nature, bananas reproduce through sexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction in flowering plants is similar to sexual reproduction in animals. Sperm cells are produced inside pollen grains.

Spectrophotometric method was employed in the determination of vitamin contents. The vitamin compositions of the three Musa species at three stages of development revealed that vitamin A and vitamin C components of the samples were higher when compared with vitamin B1, B2 and B3 contents of all the samples at the different stages of development. The vitamin A components of Banana was higher than that of plantain. The results also showed that the vitamin contents increased as the fruits developed from immature to ripe stages. Although differences occurred among the different species and at different developmental stages, these differences are not significant. The Results of the vitamin composition of the three Musa species at the immature stages of development revealed that vitamins A, C, and B3 content in plantain were higher than in Saba banana and also banana. The significantly higher constituents of some vitamins as vitamins A, B3 and C identify the saba banana as a very good type for consumption especially during ripe stage.
