Farmers in India have discovered an innovative use for banana trees by converting them into menstrual pads.
This process begins with harvesting the banana plants, which are then processed to extract fibers from the tree’s trunk.
These fibers are highly absorbent, making them an ideal material for creating eco-friendly and biodegradable menstrual pads.
The method involves cleaning and drying the banana tree fibers before converting them into a soft, absorbent material suitable for sanitary products.

This approach not only provides a sustainable alternative to traditional pads but also helps in managing agricultural waste, creating a valuable byproduct from what would otherwise be discarded.
By adopting this technique, Indian farmers are addressing environmental concerns and contributing to the local economy.
This innovative use of banana trees demonstrates how agricultural byproducts can be repurposed in practical and beneficial ways.
