MANGOSTEEN AT CLSU.
Some 1,000 mangosteen trees have been
planted in shady areas inside the campus
of Central Luzon State University in
Muñoz, Nueva Ecija. The seedlings which
are growing very well were provided by
Bernie Dizon who has techno demo farm at
the university. Photo shows Dr. Tereso
Aguinaldo, professor and member of the
board of regents of CLSU, posing with

Mangosteen has good potential as a money
crop in Luzon, especially in the coconut
growing provinces of Laguna, Quezon,
Batangas and other provinces. |

MANGOSTEEN PLANTING AT
CLSU. Some
700 mangosteen seedlings have already been
planted on the campus of the Central Luzon State
University. Still, more are being planted. Here,
CLSU President Rodolfo C. Undan and grounds
improvement foreman Donato Vigilia are planting
another one, a grafted seedling. Mangosteen
grows in partially shaded areas such as under
acacia trees, coconut trees and others. The
first plantings at CLSU are growing very well
and are expected to bear fruit in few years.
Bernie Dizon who has a techno-demo farm at CLSU
supplies the planting materials. |
