Description:Is Artocarpus heterphyllus LAM. (jackfruit) a divine tree in the sky or a delicacy for human beings? Mr. Peng, De-sheng of Linjhong Village planted jackfruit trees ten years ago and plenty of jackfruit can be appreciated nowadays. Jackfruit can be as heavy as up to 30 kg and the current market price for 1 kg is NT$100. The jackfruit farm is right behind a CPC gas station in Linnei. We made some tea and had a chat under the tree. Mr. Peng said the leaves of jackfruit trees could help purify the environment and formed a shady cool place for people to relax. A jackfruit tree in the yard reveals infinite Buddhist allegoric words. Jackfruit can be eaten directly or processed and is highly praised as a delicacy for the vegetarians. |
