Fig Crops

In addition to dates, we also cultivate figs. As a crop, figs grant a very good yield and income every year from the first year of planting itself.

Fig plants are well-suited for Indian climate conditions, soil and yield. There are more than 600 varieties of figs worldwide, Our focus lies primarily on Afghan and Turkey figs, which are delicious and popular. 

Figs are often consumed fresh, or after drying in the sun or artificially. They have been an important fruit of commerce in the eastern Mediterranean region since antiquity, and today are consumed across the world. Figs have a high sugar content and are a fair source of vitamins A, B, and B2. 

The fig fruit is actually a hollow receptacle with hundreds of small fleshy flowers facing each other on the inside. In their native habitat, figs are pollinated by a tiny gall wasp that enters the flower cluster through a small opening in the apex. Each flower then produces a small fruit containing seeds.
