Paw Paw Farm sugestions
Hi everyone. I want to start one paw paw production farm here in my country. I'm totaly obcessed by this fabulously nutritious, healing and versatile fruit! It's possible to do so much things with paw paws that i see it can be very profitable if the project is made correctly. First i'm selecting 10 to 15 diferent paw paw varieties to make a second selection when they get fruit.
For fruit selling i thing the best var will be the ones of medium size less seeds, and good not too strong flavour and no bad aftertaste. For pulp extraction, varieties presenting big size, fewer seeds and excelent taste. It's possible a blending of several varieties maby. I have to start to grow many seedlings from seed. Now i don't know the best rotstock varieties. I think i will have my first fruits from my two big sunflower paw paws... i have many ideas... any thoughts?

Re: Paw Paw Farm sugestions
A lot of invested time... Sounds like my dream of creating a worthwhile Thornless Salak palm. Maybe one day I will.
Some things are worth trying out. |
