They have a thick and prickly green skin. When the jackfruit is opened one finds the round fruits contained in 'pockets' in a fibrous interior. The flesh is pale yellow and tastes sweet and has a sweet odor.

<span style="font-family: arial;"><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="line-height: 26.4px;">Jackfruit is the largest tree-borne fruit in the world, reaching 80 pounds in weight and up to 36 inches long and 20 inches in diameter. The exterior of the compound fruit is green or yellow when ripe. The interior consists of large edible bulbs of yellow, banana-flavored flesh that encloses a smooth, oval, light-brown seed. The seed is 3/4 to 1-1/2 inches long and 1/2 to 3/4 inches thick and is white and crisp within. There may be 100 or up to 500 seeds in a single fruit, which are viable for no more than three or four days. When fully ripe, the unopened jackfruit emits a strong disagreeable odor, resembling that of decayed onions, while the pulp of the opened fruit smells of pineapple and banana.</span><br />
<b style="line-height: 26.4px;"><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="border: 1pt none windowtext; line-height: 37.3333px; padding: 0cm;">Varieties:</span></b><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="line-height: 26.4px;">Jackfruit belong to the Artocarpus family, or the same family as the breadfruit made famous by Captain Bligh. The main species is the A. heterophylla. According to Purdue University, the origin of the jackfruit isn't known--the plants are widely distributed throughout tropical Asia and Bangladesh and India, where they have been in cultivation for hundreds of years. Because this is a commercially important plant, jackfruit have been extensively hybridized over the years. Growers have worked to encourage traits like early fruiting, late-season fruiting, large fruit, small fruit, and sweeter fruit.</span><br />

Mature trees have survived temperatures of about 27° F but these were frozen to large limbs. Young trees are likely to be killed at temperatures below 32° F. Unlike its relative, the breadfruit, the jackfruit is not injured by cool weather several degrees above freezing.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><b style="line-height: 26.4px;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; line-height: 32px;">Soil:</span></b><span class="apple-converted-space" style="line-height: 26.4px;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; line-height: 32px;"> </span></span><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; line-height: 32px;">The jackfruit flourishes in rich, deep soil of medium or open texture. Planting on top of an old compost heap would be ideal. The faster one can force a tropical plant to grow, the better the chance of keeping it alive. The tree needs the best drainage and cannot tolerate "wet feet".</span></span><br />

<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">1.</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><strong style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Plant Propagation.</strong><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">The use of seeds is generally preferred because vegetative propagation is quite difficult. However, trees may not exhibit the characters of the parent plant, take longer time to start flowering, and are generally tall.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">The seeds should be collected from healthy, mature plants which are prolific producers of fruits with desirable characteristics. Only large seeds are used. Immediately after extraction from the fruit, the seeds are washed in water to remove the slimy coating around the seeds. The horny part of the pericarp is also removed to hasten germination.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">As a general rule, the seeds are sown immediately without drying because they are recalcitrant</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> If not possible, however, the seeds can be stored in air-tight plastic containers at 20 C to maintain their viability for about 3 months. In sowing, the seeds are laid flat or with their hilum facing downward. Germination should begin within 10 days. It is expected that 80-100% of the seeds will have germinated within 35 to 40 days after sowing.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Growing jackfruit can also be started through vegetative propagation using stem cuttings and by air layering or marcotting. However, special techniques are necessary, including the use of rooting hormones at the right concentrations. The Forkert method or patch budding as well as cleft grafting and wedge grafting likewise proved successful.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">In Thailand, suckle grafting is extensively applied in growing jackfruit. It is a form of inarching in which young potted rootstocks are decapitated and inserted in twigs of the mother trees.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">2.</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><strong style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Land Preparation and Holing.</strong><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Just like other crops, proper land preparation is important in growing jackfruit. In sloping lands or where only a few trees are to be planted, land preparation involves the slashing of the vegetation and round weeding of the immediate peripheries of the hills. If a large number of trees is to be planted, it is best to prepare the land thoroughly by plowing. Holes are then dug 0.5-1 meter deep and wide. To ensure supply of nutrients, this will be refilled with topsoil mixed with 1/3 proportion of compost. If raw manure is used or any organic substrate, planting should be delayed for at least 15 days to allow decomposition.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">3.</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><strong style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Planting.</strong><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Field planting can be done by direct seeding or by transplanting using nursery grown potted seedlings. Potted seedlings should be outplanted usually before they are one year old or before the roots leak out of the pot because the seedlings are sensitive to root disturbance. Bareroot transplanting is inapplicable to jackfruit.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: arial;"><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Jackfruit can be planted with a spacing of 8-12 meters in square, rectangular or triangular pattern. This is equivalent to a population density of about 70 to 156 plants per hectare (28-63 plants per acre) in the square system and 80 to 180 per hectare (32-72 per acre) in the triangular or hexagonal system.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">The exact population, however, can only be determined by preparing a planting lay-out plan showing the positions of the hills, plant-to-plant spacing, and the distances of rows to the boundaries. This lay-out plan is similar to a construction blueprint which should be made before actually starting the farm activities in growing jackfruit.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">4.</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><strong style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Fertilizing.</strong><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Fertilizer application is always a component of growing jackfruit or any crop on a continuing basis. Farm manures are applied in increasing doses from 10 to 30 kg per year as the tree matures. To ensure maximum yields of fruiting trees, complete fertilizer is applied at the rate of 1-3 kg per tree per year. Addition of muriate of potash is also generally recommended for fruiting trees. The rate is split into two equal doses, the first application preferably during the onset and the second just before the end of the rainy season. If irrigation is available, fertilizer application can be programmed every 6 months.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">5.</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><strong style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Watering.</strong><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Regular watering should be done, unless rainfall is sufficient, from planting until the seedlings are fully established. Sufficient water is likewise needed during dry months when the trees are in the flower bloom and fruit development stages.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">6.</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><strong style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Weeding and Mulching.</strong><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Ring weeding is practiced to keep the immediate periphery of the tree free of weeds. This operation is a regular necessity in growing jackfruit at least during the first 3 to 4 years after planting. The weeds can be piled around the tree to serve as mulch which will conserve moisture and prevent the germination of weed seeds.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">7.</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><strong style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Pruning.</strong><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">The height of jackfruit, especially those raised from seed, can be regulated by cutting the main trunk about 2-3 meters from the ground. Early cutback of the main trunk can also be done to induce production of branches, allowing 4 or 5 branches to develop which are evenly distributed when viewed from the top. Properly trained, jackfruit grows with an open center which allows better light penetration.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Weak, dead, diseased and overlapping branches should be removed. This is to promote light penetration and air movement, and to prevent build up of insect pests and disease pathogen population. Branches are also removed if they hinder access to the fruits during wrapping and harvesting.</span><br />

The two major pests of jackfruit are the shoot and fruit borer (</span><em style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Diaphania caesalis</em><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">) and the brown bud weevil (</span><em style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Ochyromera artocarpi</em><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">). Caterpillars of the shoot borer tunnel into buds, young shoots and fruit. The grubs of the bud weevil bore into young buds and fruits while the adults feed on the leaves. To prevent damage, the fruits are wrapped with plastic bags when still young. Fallen, overripe and damaged fruits should be collected and buried under ground.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Blossom rot, also called fruit rot and stem rot, is a serious disease caused by the fungus</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><em style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Rhizopus artocarpi</em><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">. It may lead to 15-32% crop losses. The disease affects the inflorescences or the tips of the flowering shoots. The inflorescences turn black, rot and drop. Another disease is the pink disease, also called pink limb blight, caused by the fungus</span><span class="apple-converted-space" style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;"> </span><em style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">Corticium salmonicolor</em><span style="background-color: transparent; line-height: 26.4px;">. This disease infects many farm crops, including rubber, citrus, mango, durian, coffee and cacao. Control measures include thorough collection and disposal of the affected parts and fallen fruits.</span></span><br />

For mature fruits, selection is based on the following indices: (1) hollow sound when the fruit is tapped; (2) change in the color of the skin from pale green to greenish-yellow or brownish-yellow; (3) emission of a strong aroma; and (4) flattening of the spines with wider spaces. The stalk (peduncle) of the fruit should be cut with a sharp knife and the fruit is gently lowered to the ground.</span></span><br />

<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-family: arial; line-height: 26.4px;">100 g of edible jackfruit bulbs provide 95 calories. The fruit is made of soft, easily digestible flesh (bulbs) with simple sugars like fructose and sucrose that when eaten replenishes energy and revitalizes the body instantly.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: arial;"><span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="line-height: 26.4px;">Jackfruit is rich in dietary fiber, which makes it a good bulk laxative. The fiber content helps protect the colon mucous membrane by binding to and eliminating cancer-causing chemicals from the colon.</span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><span style="line-height: 26.4px;">Fresh fruit has small amounts of </span><span style="line-height: 26.4px;">vitamin-A</span><span style="line-height: 26.4px;">, and flavonoid pigments such as </span><i style="line-height: 26.4px;">carotene-ß, xanthin, lutein and cryptoxanthin-ß.</i><span style="line-height: 26.4px;"> Together, these compounds play vital roles in antioxidant and vision functions. Vitamin A is also required for maintaining integrity of mucus membranes and skin. Consumption of natural fruits rich in vitamin-A, and carotenes has been found to protect from lung and oral cavity cancers.</span></span><br />
<span face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="line-height: 26.4px;">Additionally, jackfruit is a good source of antioxidant vitamin-C, provides about 13.7 mg or 23% of RDA. Consumption of foods rich in vitamin C helps the body develop resistance against infectious agents and scavenge harmful free radicals.</span><br />
