In a tremendous stride for Pakistani agriculture, the primary cultivation of jackfruit, regionally referred to as Kathal, has started out in Sindh. This fruit, traditionally grown in nations like India and Bangladesh, marks a massive development in nearby farming practices.
The initiative has been launched in Tando Jam and Tando Allahyar, selected as the best places to kickstart these transformative projects. The introduction of jackfruit cultivation is poised to revolutionize the region’s agricultural landscape.
Officials express optimism regarding the economic prospects linked with jackfruit plantations, foreseeing sustainable growth opportunities. Experts emphasize that mature jackfruit trees can potentially yield up to 500 fruits annually, promising abundant harvests and economic benefits for the community.
This initiative diversifies agricultural activities and highlights Pakistan’s potential to expand its crop variety and bolster local economic sustainability through innovative farming practices.
