Moringa Seeds (Early Variety ) PKM-1

A hybrid variety, PKM1 was derived from Moringa oleifera and it is grown for its heavy biomass and tender leaves. Characteristic features of these hybrid varieties include wide and dark green leaves, long and tender pods, bushy habit and rapid growth after cropping. Moringa PKM1 seeds were developed at Periya Kulam Horticultural College and Research Institute, Tamil Nadu. This gives largest yields at the shortest period. PKM1 had a better taste than other hybrid varieties. It is one of the hybrid moringa varieties to give a higher yield when compared to others. Length of each pod is 45-75 cms. Each plant yields 300-400 sticks.
