About
College student Rakibul Hasan, son of Abu Bakkar of Chakboraigachhi in Chandrakona union, Nokla upazila, Sherpur, was inspired by success stories on YouTube and in late 2020 brought 30 China orange saplings from Mymensingh and planted them beside his house. He went ahead despite his family's objections; a few trees fruited in 2021, and in 2022 almost every tree bore heavily, with 40 kg picked from a single tree. In 2022 the 30 trees produced at least 50-55 maunds, sold wholesale at Tk 2,200-2,500 a maund (Tk 60-70 a kg on average), and the family expected to earn over Tk 1 lakh. The oranges are slightly sour because of the soil but large and juicy. Wholesalers pick the fruit themselves at the orchard, and others come to buy directly; people come from far away to see the orchard. Unable to find a job, Rakibul went to Saudi Arabia in 2022, and his father Abu Bakkar now looks after the orchard.
