A farmer cuts down a banana plant, at her farm, in Kiwenda village, Busukuma, Wakiso District, Uganda, Wednesday, September 20, 2023. The decapitated banana plant is almost useless, an inconvenience to the farmer who must then uproot it and lay its dismembered parts as mulch. A Ugandan company is buying banana stems in a business that turns fiber into attractive handicrafts. The idea is innovative as well as sustainable in this East African country that’s literally a banana republic. (Photo by Hajarah Nalwadda/AP Photo)
