Floating Plum Market - Bangladesh
The hog plum market in Jhalakathi is thriving at the start of the season, with fresh fruit filling both waterways and land markets. Known nationwide as Barishal’s hog plum, Jhalakathi is now the primary supplier. Farmers say that as guava season ends, the hog plum market picks up, especially in villages like Bhimruli, where floating markets are popular. Wholesale prices range from Tk 800 to 1,200 per maund, with rates expected to rise, making farmers optimistic. Due to low production costs, hog plum cultivation is increasing. Traders note that Jhalakathi's hog plums are larger and sweeter than those from other regions. On september 15, 2024 in Jhalakathi, Borishal, Bangladesh. Photo by Habibur Rahman/ABACAPRESS.COM
