Garlic NARC G1

WINTER OR SPRING GARLIC ?

Garlic is planted in two cycles, spring and autumn. Garlic winter, planted in autumn, does not develop flower shoots. It hibernates in winter and emerges in spring. Spring garlic, on the other hand, is planted in spring. Winter varieties develop larger heads and ripen much earlier than spring varieties. They reach up to 120 cm in height, with bulbs up to 280 g in weight.

Overview

National Agricultural Research Center Islamabad (NARC) Dr. Humayun Akhtar Sahib has introduced a new variety of garlic which Pakistan has brought its own variety after the last forty years. Named NARC G1. NARC G1 is an unparalleled variety of garlic.

Its production has been recorded up to 250 million per acre this year. Which is the highest production of any variety of garlic in Pakistan!

The most important advantage of this variety is its long shelf life. It does not spoil for a year if stored in a well-ventilated and shady place with stalks. If the farmer stores it well and sells it in winter, then the general market rate will also increase significantly.
