Hi Everyone --

I trust you and family are doing well. Things are getting better and better with covid situations. Take care of yourself and family.

In this blog, I am going to share little about summer KING fruit "Mango".  :)

In India, Mango is the king of fruits, so you can get it as soon as the spring season ends and the summer season begins, usually in the first few weeks of April. Mango season starts in summer and continues till the middle of the monsoon.


Mango is one of a great summer fruits in India, as it helps the body fight the heat and prevents heat strokes in summer.

During summer in south India, we get many fruits. i.e. Cashew Apples, Palm Fruits (Ice Apple), Jack Fruits. Jamuns, Tamarind, Manila Tamarind etc. Indian summers are incomplete without mango. It is undoubtedly the king of fruits in the Indian subcontinent.

Types of Mangoes: 

There are around 20+ varieties of Mangoes. What I am aware of are: Alphonsa,  Neelum, Banganapalli, Himsagar etc.

Mango Trees:

Mango tree gives very good shade in summer. It's thick and lush green leaf protects us from direct sun light in summer...

Sit under one big mango tree, and you will "feel" the difference. Trust me, it is worth trying out. :)

I also planted another 10 mango trees in my farm. Now a days, small plant is also becoming costlier. One  small mango plant is costing around 350 INR. 


OK, everyone... Summer is all about Mangoes here. Along with mango fruit, please find out a mango tree if possible, relax for few minutes under the mango tree, and support more mango trees. :)


Signing off this week... Mac Under the Mango tree... 

Catch you all in the next one...

Planted 100 Palm Trees (Palmyra palm tree or Panai Maram)... :)

 Hi Everyone -- I trust you, family and friends are doing well.  In this blog, I am going to share little bit about my diwali weekend activity. It was a good long weekend and it helped me to plan better. Let me add some value to our environment and society during this Diwali. Ok, what is it about? Planting Palm Trees : It is called "Panai Maram" in Tamil or Palmyra palm tree as per google.. :)  Here is the fruit from palm tree in raw form, it is called "Ice Apple". These days, people make juice (i.e. Nongu sarbath) from this and it is becoming very famous. I decided to plant around 100 trees. My day started at 5.30 am. Typically all farmers get up very early and they get into farms early. :).. Farmers work hard, farming is like serving to people.  We finished all the work by 2.00 pm. Along with Palm trees, I did plant many Neem trees too. Myself and folks working in farm, we started collecting all the palm seeds and packed in sacks. Unpacked in target place and sta

My dear social friends, brothers and sisters ...  Vanakkam, Namaste.  This blog is about my experience at the recent reunion that we had.... Special thanks to my friends! Tesla and all devices without recharge, or with no charge - it is called as ??. Recharge is important for human too :) Group of folks having titles varying from architects, strategists, delivery heads, C and mid-level executives, consultants etc, working for various Fortune-500 companies, having a habit of meeting every year. For what purpose? It was neither about strategy and market position nor about investment and financials.   Then, why do they meet? I decided to take few days off amidst my busy schedule and decided to join those folks this year, not to find out why, what etc… Just to hang around with those folks, as they are all my engineering batch mates...   This time, my friends organized get-together in Florida. They meet every year in USA, but for me this is the first time. I am going to meet many of my ba

Palm Trees Progress - Two leaves in two years.... (Panai Maram and Karupatti Kaapi)

Image
My dear social friends, brothers and sisters ...  Vanakkam, Namaste and good day!. Last month , I visited India and I will share the latest progress and latest experiences from farm. This blog is about palm trees. Two years back, I planted around 100 palm trees. Here is the old blog: https://blog.prabakarpaulsami.com/2021/11/planted-100-palm-trees-palmyra-palm.html I visited my farm, happy to see some progress and sharing the same here. The interesting fact is that, after two years of planting and waiting, I see now two leaves. :). Not all trees survived, but many survived our last year drought. It took two years, to see some visible progress as see you below. Many trees still have just one leave as you see below. Palm Trees take longer time to grow. An average growth rate is: 3 to 10 inches per year. What does it mean: This plantation is for next generation. I am sure that, I will not get any benefits from this plantation.  But, preserving/growing this tree for next generation. It is
