A. Banana plantation:

We have 120 small trees. This was not sufficient to feed all children: we bought 100 Extra trees and fertilizers.

Normally we buy fruit on the market. This is expensive; therefore the children get only fruit once per week. We rent a breeding place to plant fruit trees and make them grow.
