Deepak planted the seedlings experimentally three years ago, and this year, all three trees have produced mangoes. The Banana Mango has a high yield due to its long bud and produces a large quantity of fruit with a thin pulp and no fiber. The Malda soil enhances its sweetness, making it a profitable option for farmers. However, the commercial cultivation of this variety is yet to begin in West Bengal.
