Nov 27, 2025 The Japanese Fruit Cultivation, A New Agricultural Trend In Himachal Pradesh This fruit is fetching good prices in the market. Madanlal, a resident of Khokhan village in Kullu district, cultivated Japanese persimmon fruit plants in his fields with the help of the Horticulture Department and is now earning good profits from his Japanese fruit production. Horticulture owner Madanlal says, "Previously, traditional crops like wheat and corn were grown on our farms. However, since we started growing Japanese fruit, the income has improved significantly. We could have also grown apples and pomegranates, but the high cost of pesticides, fertilizers, and sprays on both crops results in low profits. Therefore, I chose Japanese persimmon fruit as an alternative. These are fetching prices ranging from 120 to 180 rupees per kg in the market."
