We thank God for the researchers who are safeguarding the environment and the people. Chirag Desai, a Scientist in the Banana Pseudostem value chain at the Soil and Water Management Research Unit of Navsari Agricultural University, is dedicated to minimizing the social and environmental impact in India. He is assisting farmers in ceasing the practice of dumping banana trees by the roadside, a habit that poses both environmental and social challenges. Desai is educating farmers on converting these discarded plants into fibers, fertilizers, fabric, and candies.
