What are the advantages of vegetative propagation?

The advantages of vegetative propagation are:

1. Vegetative propagation is faster method of growing plants than growing them from seeds.
2. Plants produced by vegetative propagation bear flowers earlier than those produced from seeds
3. Vegetative propagation is extremely useful for production of seedless plants such as banana, grapes and sugarcane.
4. New plants produced via vegetative propagation are exactly the same as the parent plant and survive even in unfavourable conditions.
