Cashew is the money making, health promoting, soil conserving and environment friendly crop. Findings show that the minimum land size that will make business sense for commercial cashew production should be 40 Hectares planted with hybrid premium cashew yielding up to 2 tons per Hectare. By establishing cashew plantations we are setting up our farmers for success and prosperity.
