Stop Jackfruit Drop: 3 March Tips for Bumper Harvest!

• Small jackfruit fruits often drop prematurely in March-April due to insufficient nutrition, causing significant production loss for farmers.
• In March, dig a pit 2 feet from the tree roots and add well-rotted cow dung manure; quantity based on tree age (e.g., 5 baskets for a 5-year-old tree).
• Spray a turmeric solution (5 spoons in 5 liters water) on the tree to control diseases and reduce fruit dropping.
• Apply a paste of lime and blue vitriol (copper sulfate) to the tree trunk to prevent pests like ants from climbing and damaging fruits.
• Balanced nutrition, disease control, and pest management are crucial for increasing jackfruit production and farmer income.
