                    [Summary] => Expect Zambales to become a "sweet tamarind country" soon.


Now paving the way for this is a government program that propagates and mass-produces sweet tamarind varieties for the benefit of places where this resilient fruit tree thrives.


"Zambales has been identified as ideal for tamarind planting because of its semi-arid lands although this crop can grow well in any type of soil and agri-climatic conditions," said the Department of Agriculture-Bureau of Agricultural Research (DA-BAR).

This can be done by applying a microbial inoculant developed by PhilRice (Philippine Rice Research Institute) researchers on farm wastes like animal manure, weeds, leaf droppings, crop residues (rice straw) and tree trimmings or clippings.
