Srinagar, Sept. 21 -- Early Times Report

The production of apples is in full swing in Kashmir valley with the help of High-Density Plants (HDP). These plants, which are used at a larger scale, not only produce good quality of apples but also provide with a better quantity.

A farmer, Abdul Rasheed, on Saturday, told "After using the high-density plants, I'm making double profits. It does not even require much labour charges and is not time-consuming.

This method is far better than the traditional method."
