At Ashapura farm we are growing 'Bhagwa'
variety of pomegranate which is one of the best variety with red
seed. The seed of the pomegranate are consumed. The entire seed is
consumed raw, though the fleshy outer portion of the seed is the
part that is desired. The taste differs depending on the variety
of pomegranate and its state of ripeness. It can be very sweet or
it can be very sour or tangy, but most fruits lie somewhere in
between, which is the characteristic taste, laced with notes of
its tannin.One pomegranate delivers 40% of an adult's daily
vitamin C requirement. It is also a rich source of folic acid and
of antioxidants. |

The 'Chiku' fruit is 4-8 cm in
diameter, very much resembling a smooth-skinned potato and
containing 2-10 seeds. Inside, its flesh ranges from pale yellow
to earthy brown color with a grainy texture akin to that of a
well-ripened pear. The flavour is exceptionally sweet. The chikoo
trees yield fruit twice a year, though flowering may continue year
round. The fruit has a high latex content and does not ripen until
picked. Some are round and some are oval with pointed ends. |

The primary use of the papaya is
as an edible fruit. It is usually eaten raw, without the skin or

The fruit of the Date Palm is a
drupe known as a date. They are oval-cylindrical, 3-7 cm long, and
2-3 cm diameter, and when unripe, range from bright red to bright
yellow in color, depending on variety.A 100 gram portion of fresh
dates is a premium source of vitamin C and supplies 230 kcal of
energy. Since dates contain relatively little water, they do not
become much more concentrated upon drying, although the vitamin C
disappears in the process. |

The bijora is a species of citrus
fruit. It is characterized by its thick rind and small sections.
Generally, it is eaten preserved by making pickels. |

This is also citrus family fruit.
The fruit are used primarily for their juice, though the pulp and
rind are also used, primarily in cooking or mixing. Lemon juice is
about 5% citric acid, which gives lemons a sour taste.100
milliliters lemon juice contain approximately 50 milligrams of
vitamin C and 5 grams citric acid. There is a belief in Ayurvedic
medicine that a cup of hot water with lemon juice in it tonifies
and purifies the liver. |

The coconut is harvested when it
is green. It is harvested to drink its juice; a big nut contains
up to one liter of refreshing drink. After ripening the white,
fleshy part of the seed is edible and used fresh or dried in
cooking. Coconuts are extensively used in Hindu religious rites.
Coconuts are usually offered to the gods, and a coconut is smashed
on the ground or on some object as part of an initiation or
inauguration of building projects, facility, ship, etc. |
