Apricot: A Popular Fruit in India

Apricot is a popular fruit in India’s arid temperate and moderate highland areas.
In India, this fruit belongs to the Rosaceae family and the genus Prunus.
In the hills of Shimla and Himachal Pradesh, this fruit grows wild.
When compared to other fruits, apricots are high in vitamin A and niacin.
Apricots are used in jams, and squash, and they can also be dried and canned.
In India, commercial apricot growing is minimal.

REQUIREMENTS

IRRIGATION

Apricots require irrigation, particularly during the fruit growth stage in April and May.
Irrigation frequency is determined by soil type, tree age, and weather conditions.
Irrigation should be given every 8 to 10 days under extremely hot and dry conditions (May to June).
Because these trees are sensitive to waterlogging, the soil should be emptied off in the event of severe rainfall.
