Opportunities for interventions to improve environmental sustainability of smallholder banana production in Mwense Zambia

Open access

Samenvatting

Banana (Musa spp.) have been recognised to play an indispensable role in meeting the ever-increasing food demands of the world populace and in improving the livelihoods of millions of smallholders. However, use of unsustainable farming practices especially among smallholders in rural domains has become both a local and global issue impacting negatively on rural livelihoods and future agricultural productivity. In Mwense, use of unsustainable production practices has been the leading cause of declining banana production among small-scale producers. Therefore, this study employed the concept of sustainability assessment to assess the environmental sustainability status of the current farming practices to develop tailor-made interventions targeting to enhance environmental sustainability of smallholder banana production.
