LASHKARGAH (Pajhwok): Grafted and inseminated 30 years later, date trees in southern Helmand province produced ‘a significant yield’ this year, an official says.
Rafiullah Qalam, planning and program manager at the provincial agriculture department, told Pajhwok Afghan News that date trees had raised on their own in various parts of Helmand province over the last 30 years.
“These trees did not yield dates in these long years, but the owner of an agricultural foundation grafted and inseminated the trees this year and they yielded significant dates,” he . . .
