Banana is major cash crop of this region generating vast agricultural waste after harvest. The agrowaste
including dried leaves and psuedostem after harvest was used as substrate for the release of
sugars. Saccharification of banana agro waste by cellulases of Trichoderma lignorum was investigated.
The steam treated agro-waste yielded 1.34 mg/ml of reducing sugars after 24 hr. The size of substrate
affected saccharification where the smaller size (
