A farm owner in Digos City, Davao del Sur, was able to grow and cultivate over 500 apple trees on a three-hectare farm, a notable feat considering that apples usually grow in temperate areas.
According to Kuya Kim 's report on "24 Oras," Tuesday," Benzone Sepe got the idea to plant an apple tree in 2014 out of curiosity."Kumain ako ng apple naka-extract ako ng tatlong seeds. Itinanim ko. Isa lang po ang nag-survive, 2018 nakita ko nag-start po siyang bumunga," Sepe said.Sepe said that during the summer, he waters his apple trees daily. He also regularly prunes the trees and uses goat manure for fertilizer.
Apples are full of benefits, such as nutrients and vitamins. Kuya Kim also said that the fruit is fat-free and cholesterol-free, rich in fiber, and can help in controlling blood sugar and strengthening one's immune system.Earwin Belen, an agriculturist and the head of Agri-Innovations and Agronomy at Kita Agritech, shared that apples usually grow in temperate areas or areas that cycle through the four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, winter.
