Project launched for seedless Kinnow
FAISALABAD-The Punjab government has launched a multipurpose
agriculture project to produce high yielding and disease
resistant citrus fruit in the province.
A major component of this project is to produce seedless
kinnow. The seedless Kinnow can not only help growers to earn
more profit but will also fetch better price for their produce
from the international markets.
According to a source of the Ayub Agricultural Research
Institute (AARI), number of teams are visiting Kinnow
producing districts of the province to identify the plants of
seedless Kinnow and make further research to develop the
seedless varieties of Kinnow.
The AARI has asked the Kinnow growers to cooperate with the
teams by pinpointing seedless plants in their garden or area.
