A farmer’s innovative method of planting a banana and an egg alongside tomato seedlings has gained widespread attention for its remarkable results. The viral video, showcasing the man digging a hole, dropping an egg and a banana inside, has garnered almost 1.2 million views globally.
In the photos, the farmer fertilizes vegetables using this unique technique: a hole filled with a raw egg and a banana in its shell, topped with tomato seedlings and covered in soil. As the egg and banana decompose, they provide essential “magic nutrients” crucial for vegetable seeds. The farmer forsakes harmful artificial fertilizers for this effective, two-ingredient natural alternative.
In the context of deteriorating ecology and ozone layer, growing fruits and vegetables becomes challenging, leading to increased fertilizer use. However, the problem lies in the artificial nature of many fertilizers, poisoning soil, vegetables, and fruits and posing risks to consumers. Embracing natural fertilizers like ash, dung, and vegetable waste, as demonstrated by the egg and banana example, offers a cost-effective and sustainable solution.
