The long stalk of certain plants like palms, banana plants
and bori trees.
This refers to the lower part without leaves or fronds, or also to the
entire stalk if the leaves have been stripped off. These stalks, when
stripped of their leaves, can be used for various purposes, for
example for stirring the meat in a large cooking pot or for stirring
cashew nuts that are being roasted in a fire. When completely dried
out they make good firewood.
