Litchi Cultivation: Cultivate this special variety of litchi brought from Vietnam, there will be bumper production
Litchi Cultivation: You must have heard the names of several litchi kinds up to this point. However, you have probably heard the names of the two major types of litchi—Chinese litchi and Shahi litchi. The Muzaffarpur district of Bihar produces the most Shahi litchi. It is sent to other nations throughout the litchi season. However, the litchi we will discuss with you is sold for quite expensive prices.
We would like to inform you that the experts at the National Litchi Research Center Muzaffarpur have imported a unique kind of litchi from Vietnam. We call this kind of litchi Longgan-1. It has the exact same appearance as litchi, however it is quite different in color. This 20 kilogram plant is a high-production cultivar with frequent fruiting. In terms of weight, a single fruit weighs between 11 and 13 grams, with pulp making about 60% of the weight.
It costs between 300 and 400 rupees for small packages.
Senior Technical Assistant Officer of National Litchi Research Pragya Shah provides more details on this, stating that a new litchi from Vietnam, known as Longan, has arrived in our city. Although it is somewhat different and has a distinct fruit, this litchi is still a member of our litchi family.
Litchis are collected in the first and second weeks of August when the market has run out of them, such as when we don’t have any in July or August. The relevance of this litchi is greatest when we don’t have any, and it costs between 300 and 400 rupees for little packets that are offered in malls in major cities like Chennai, Bangalore, and Mumbai.
It lasts for eight days before spoiling.
He said that many of these plants were imported from Vietnam and planted at our institution around six years ago. We now enjoy their fruit and sell it when it’s in season. at addition, the National Litchi Research Center has prepared a large number of Longan plants. They are also available for purchase for garden planting.
For ₹100, you will get one plant.
Compared to other litchis, it has a much lower moisture value. Litchi may be stored for a week or eight days, although it begins to deteriorate in three to four days. Compared to litchi, it has greater vitamin C. During Corona’s time, this Longan fruit was noted. This fruit has several health benefits. It may be more productive than Shahi Litchi. There are more fruits on it than leaves.
