While no species goes by the exact name "Himalayan wild tomato" in global scientific databases, the term is used colloquially or in ecological studies to refer to certain wild Solanum species found in that environment.

The Growing Gold of Kashmir: Everything About Hazelnut Farming

Hazelnut trees in Kashmir
Hazelnut cultivation is gaining popularity in  South Kashmir, with farmers shifting towards this high-value crop due to promising market returns. While not native to Kashmir, hazelnuts thrive in the region's temperate climate, especially in high-altitude areas. Farmers in villages like Kokernag, Guridraman, and Matihandoo are increasingly planting hazelnuts, known locally as "virin," on approximately 2000 kanals of private land. 
  • Growing Demand: The demand for hazelnuts is increasing, leading farmers to switch to this crop for better returns.
  • Government Support: A government-run farm in Lehenwan, Kokernag, has about 3,500 hazelnut plants, demonstrating the potential of this cultivation.
  • Local Name: Hazelnuts are locally known as "virin" in Kashmir.
  • Nutritional Value: Hazelnuts are rich in protein, healthy fats, and vitamins, making them a valuable addition to local cuisine and traditional medicine.
  • Climate Suitability: The cooler, temperate climate of Kashmir's mountainous regions is well-suited for hazelnut cultivation.
  • Planting and Harvesting: The planting season for hazelnuts is from December to April, and harvesting occurs in September.
  • Yield: Hazelnut trees typically start bearing fruit after four years.
  • Wild Trees: Wild hazelnut trees can also be found in areas like Kupwara, Kishtwar, Phalgam, Khrew, Pulwama, Shopiyan  and Baramulla.
