    According to a report from Bangladesh’s “Daily Sun” on September 9, scientists from the Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI) developed two research stations at the Lebukhali Regional Horticultural Research Station in Patuakhali.
    A new watermelon variety has been welcomed by farmers due to its low production cost and high yield
    .
    The shape, taste and sweetness of the new watermelon are better than traditional foreign hybrid varieties, and it has also been recognized by consumers
    .
    Farmers in Bangladesh can easily produce seeds from these new watermelon varieties to reduce their dependence on seed imports and save a lot of foreign exchange for Bangladesh
    .
    Bangladesh imports about 2-25 billion taka of watermelon seeds every year
    .
    These two new varieties are non-seasonal varieties, suitable for Mongolian climate
    .
