4 July
International Jackfruit Day
Jackfruit can be eaten raw, cooked, or processed into various products, such as chips, jams, ice creams, and even meat substitutes. It is rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fibre, and has many health benefits. It also has many uses beyond food, such as its wood, seeds, roots, and leaves. Jackfruit is a sustainable and climate-resilient crop that can help reduce hunger and poverty in many parts of the world.
