Distribution of 3682 cultivated date seedlings in the south of Kerman

Mansour Sharif stated: In order to carry out improvement operations, reconstruction and construction of new nurseries and development of dry and semi-dry date cultivars, we need to use high quality and commercial cultivars and healthy and original seedlings.

He pointed out that today, in order to propagate dates, in addition to using cuttings, new weaving technology is also used for propagation.

Sharif stated: In order to achieve these goals, the horticultural management of the Jihad Agricultural Organization of Southern Kerman has distributed 3,682 cultivated and woven seedlings of Pyaram and Zahedi cultivars to farmers since the beginning of this year.

The director of horticulture of the Jihad Agricultural Organization of South Kerman, pointing out that these seedlings will be distributed using subsidized credits, said: It is predicted that the planted date seedlings will reach the exploitation stage in the next five to six years.
