ZIRO, Sep 16: A team of horticulture experts has said that Ziro can expect a bumper kiwi harvest this year.
The team, comprising Kiwi Gardens Cooperative Society secretary Gyati Loder, Lower Subansiri DHO Komri Murtem, HDO Pura Obing and others gave the verdict after inspecting the kiwi gardens in and around Ziro on Sunday.
They attributed the expected bumper harvest this year to the scientific cultivation management adopted by the farmers, coupled with favourable climatic conditions during pollination and fruit-setting time.
The DHO also distributed gardening tools to the farmers during the inspection. (DIPRO)
