High-Altitude Chestnut Tree Farming in Kashmir

Sweet Chestnut trees Kashmir
Chestnut trees (Castanea species) bear edible nuts inside spiky green husks (burrs), which split open when ripe (late Sept-Nov), releasing shiny brown nuts that need scoring and cooking. They start producing fruit from around 3-7 years for grafted varieties, reaching full yield at maturity (15-20 yrs). These trees are wind-pollinated, prefer well-draining soils, and offer versatile wood, nectar, and culinary nuts.
