About our PKM-2
The variety offers better yield per tree, making it suitable for growers focused on commercial productivity. Since the pods are significantly larger, fewer pods are needed to make up a kilogram. This can help simplify weighing, grading and packing operations while improving handling efficiency.
The combination of very long pods, higher flesh content and good yield makes PKM-2 a strong option for commercial production. Its larger pod size can also make post-harvest handling more convenient, particularly for markets where produce is sorted and packed by weight.
