He planted them successively each year, so that today there are 85 trees that give a beautiful harvest, writes Dnevnik from Novi Sad.
“My idea was that when I retired I would have a job and additional income,” says Branko Latinovi.
“And that became a reality for me. Today, on two acres of land near the Tisza, in Babatovo, I have an outcrop of 85 trees. I inherited the field and asked what could be done there because it is close to the Tisza and the land can be water easily. I knew if neutral or corn, first I wanted to plant apricots, then I heard that they go well with walnuts and in the end it turned out that the smell of walnuts stayed, I also had apricots, but they are short-lived, and I picked them “, says Latinovi.
Vonjak was trained with the help of expert advice from the Novi Sad Institute for Voivodeship.
“I planted nuts successively, a few trees a year. I listened to all the advice and today I am very satisfied. The walnut is not a demanding wok, but you have to be careful with the tetoins. The most dangerous is the nut fly, which attacks near the end of summer. Enter the fruit and the peel Can no longer be saved. That is why we must take care, be careful, fumigate when we need and how we should, and the family can be saved, ”explains Latinovi.
The walnut has been ripening for the past twenty days. Harvesting is, in fact, collecting fruits that fall.
“For now, we can harvest on our own, with the help of the children. Not all the walnuts are in full swing, as I planted them successively, so they now bear fruit. Walnuts begin to reach their maximum yield at fifteen years. Walnuts can live to be 50. “She is getting older and more fertile. So next year I have to hire additional manpower, “he said.
When the harvest is over, the nuts are packed into mesh bags and allowed to air dry. Then comes the “crunch”.
“We sell walnuts, which in recent years have kept the price at 800 to 1,000 dinars per kilo. I am satisfied with that price. We sell them from home, over the Internet, and I have a buyer who sells them in the market, ”says Latinovi.
Serbia does not produce enough nuts for its own needs, so this rolled fruit is imported, mainly from Turkey.
“When they import too much, the price of national food falls. That is not a good message for producers. But that is the case of all cultures,” said the interlocutor from Dnevnik.
