INDIA KASHMIR AGRICULTURE STRAWBERRIES

Strawberry production in Kashmir

epa09203633 Kashmiri farmers harvest strawberries from a field on the outskirts of Srinagar, the summer capital of Indian Kashmir, 16 May 2021. The cool and dry climate of Indian Kashmir is suitable for strawberries, which require moderate rainfall and bright sunshine. Strawberry is the first fruit that grows after six months of harsh winters and is supplied to various parts of north India including Delhi. Agriculture and horticulture are the main income source of the region and farmers in Srinagar are cultivating as many as 11 imported varieties of the fruit. The farmers said there was good yield of strawberry crop this year, but due to closure of markets owing to Covid-19 lockdown, they fear of incurring losses as they would not be able to transport the crop to outside Valley in view of coronavirus restrictions.
