Farmers In Nepal Go Brisk Plucking Citrus Fruits From Their Orchard After Entering The Peak Season-40

Freshly plucked oranges from an orchard are pictured in Sindhuli, Nepal, on December 9, 2025, for sale in the market. With the onset of cooler months, Nepal's orange and sweet orange farmers in rural areas such as Sindhuli, a key area for citrus fruits, briskly pluck them from their orchards. Known for their juicy segments and vibrant peel, these citrus favorites not only fuel the economy but also provide substantial health benefits. Oranges, part of the citrus family, are Nepal's most cultivated fruit. With production exceeding 185,000 tons annually, they are farmed on nearly 27,892 hectares across 48 districts.
