As attractive as strawberries are, they are also delicious and fun to eat. Strawberries are very popular for their attractive color and taste as well as their high nutritional value. In our country, strawberries are cultivated in the winter season. Special care must be taken during cultivation to make its production profitable. After the sapling is planted, a lot of runners or small creepers start coming out from its base. They cover the land. It does not yield well. If it comes directly in contact with the soil, the fruit of the strawberry rots. For this the strawberry land has to be covered with a mulching film. As a result, profitable production is possible by eliminating these problems. Collect #AgroSyal #Mulching_Film from your nearest dealer or call 0961 2222 345 for details. #Mulching_Film #Sustainable_Agriculture #Agrosal #nature #sustainableagriculture

What is your favorite variety? California table grapes continue to dominate domestic markets in spite of large supplies entering from South and Central America. However, this article asserts that in spite of the increase in consumption afforded by year-round markets, consumers only know "red, green and black" as varieties. Maybe it's just us, but we definitely know what to expect from moon drops, cotton candy, red globes, etc. Maybe we just eat too many California grapes. https://loom.ly/R7ws624 #california #grapes #agriculture

These nuts were almost exclusively called filberts until the 1980s. In 1981, the commission decided to emphasize the name hazelnuts. Growers and the marketing board planned for expansion into Europe... Hazelnut was the name used in Europe, not filbert. Oregon grows 99% of the US hazelnut crop. Whatever you call them, they taste great (especially when roasted) and are a part of many traditional holiday recipes, both here and abroad. More recently, 80% of Oregon hazelnuts have been exported to Asia (especially China) with most of the remainder shipped to Canada. A few years ago, Chinese tariffs on Oregon in-shell hazelnuts — the most popular type consumed there — jumped from 25% to 65% due to ongoing trade disputes with the U.S. https://lnkd.in/g9KuKubu
Oregon's state nut has two different names. Why is that?
