“Last season I planted sword suckers from my best mother plants. By month 4, Panama Wilt hit 35% of my field. Bunches averaged 22kg, harvest stretched 3 months. I lost ₹3.2 lakhs on disease alone. Switched to Khandesh Agro’s G9 tissue culture plants this season. Zero wilt. All 1200 plants uniform height by month 3. Harvested 45kg average bunches in 11 months – all same week! Got ₹22/kg instead of ₹17/kg. Total profit jumped from ₹4.8 lakhs to ₹19.3 lakhs.” – Ramesh Patil, Dhule Farmer
