Abstract: In order to solve the problem of waste disposal after banana’s harvest, we used banana stalk to produce banana stalk organic fertilizer, through a plot experiment, we compared the growth influence of Chinese cabbage by normal organic fertilizer(Wanlvbao) and banana stalk organic fertilizer as base fertilizer usage, and evaluated its economic benefits. The results showed that: organic fertilizer took little effect on water content and nutrient content for Chinese cabbage, but took significantly effect on plant height and its leaf width, using organic fertilizer increased 22.50%-43.10% production of Chinese cabbage. On the condition of 6750 kg/hm2 normal organic fertilizer application, Chinese cabbage got the highest yield, which reached 30135 kg/hm2, next was 6750 kg/hm2 stalk organic manure fertilizer. For farmer conventional fertilization level (4500 kg/hm2), application of stalk organic fertilizer increased more than 3.50% to normal organic fertilizer, income increased 1800 yuan/hm2. As a kind of banana waste cycling products, cost for banana stalk organic fertilizer was low, and took good effects, in some case, it can be used instead of normal organic fertilizer.
