Farmers in tropical regions are embracing innovative methods to grow disease-resistant papaya varieties, ensuring sustainable production and higher yields.
This shift comes as papaya cultivation faces challenges from pests and diseases, particularly the devastating papaya ringspot virus (PRSV).
To combat these threats, farmers are turning to advanced agricultural practices, including grafting techniques, hybrid seed development, and integrated pest management systems
These methods have significantly reduced crop losses and improved plant resilience.
Additionally, adopting eco-friendly solutions like organic fertilizers and biological pest controls has minimized environmental impact while enhancing fruit quality.
Researchers and agricultural experts are also collaborating with farmers to develop genetically resistant papaya strains.
These strains not only resist common diseases but also thrive in diverse climatic conditions, boosting productivity and profitability.
