‘Jackfruit has fruit all year round, very strange delicious taste, big, fleshy, flat seeds, very beautiful turmeric yellow color. Since planting until now, I have not applied any organic or inorganic fertilizers at all. Each year the tree gives 200 to 300 fruits’.
At the 2018 Ben Tre province delicious fruit contest held in Cho Lach district, many visitors were delighted and surprised to witness firsthand the product of a strange bunch of 23 consecutive jackfruits, each weighing from 2 up to 2.2 kg has a very special aroma. This special bunch of jackfruit won 2nd prize at the contest. Recently, we went to the owner of the above jackfruit tree, Mr. Nguyen Van Xoi (Ba Xoi), living in Phung Duc hamlet, Phu Phung commune, Cho Lach district to learn more about this strange type of jackfruit.

Mr. Xoi said: “This is a native jackfruit variety named To Tan, this jackfruit tree was given by a friend 25 years ago. Jackfruit has fruit all year round, delicious taste very strange, large, fleshy, flat seeds, very beautiful turmeric yellow color. Since planting until now, I have not applied any organic or inorganic fertilizers at all. Each year the tree gives 200 to 300 fruits”. This type of jackfruit from flowering to tree ripening is exactly 100 days, regardless of whether the weather is sunny or rainy. Each fruit when ripe has a weight of 2 to 2.2 kg and lies close to each other, giving off a very long aroma. Finding it strange, he tried branching with many methods to replicate but with no success. So now Mr. Xoi has only 1 strange jackfruit tree in the garden of 10,000 m2. Every year when the jackfruit is ripe, he only gives it to his neighbors to enjoy but does not sell, so the selling price has not been determined yet. (According to Popular Science Newspaper)
