However, when induced Pineapple plants fruits in 14months. It is ready for harvest when the eye is pale green in the summer or fruits turn yellow-orange at the base in the winter. The fruit is harvested by bending it over and twisting to remove it from the stalk.

Harvesting before ripening increases post-harvest storage life, although harvesting when ripe is best and preferable for best fresh fruit quality.

MARKETING
The market for pineapple fruits is inexhaustible either for domestic consumption or for fruit canning factories in Nigeria e.g Lafia factory, Funman, Chi etc.

It is important to carry out a market survey of large scale pineapple buyers, as well as how this fruit crop is sold.

You can either source from a nearby farm that has your desired variety or come over to the SW.

You see, after harvesting,a new sucker emerges. Norture for 4-6 months, after which you can induce again. With this, your pineapple produces every year during off-season.

Inducement in pineapple simply means forcing a matured pineapple plant to start producing fruit.

After Pineapple plants have been induced, the flower bud becomes visible after 8weeks. A purple bud emerges at the centre of the stem. This gradually undergo a stage called the filling phase to emerge as the pineapple fruit.
must we induce. Must we bud. Advantages or disadvantages. And do goats disturb pineapple. I'm planting on a plot of residential land with no fence yet

Without theory, practical is unachievable, learn to appreciate selfless service. The information on this thread is more than what some internet/consultants will put up for seminar and sell as e-copy.

God bless @yomie040, thanks for sharing.

HARVESTING
Under natural condition, that is an un-induced pineapple farm, pineapples is harvested between late April to August. This can be observed around us now. The fruit usually ripens about 5 months after flowering. With irregular flowering, harvesting is spread over a long period of time, thereby bringing pineapple production from planting to harvesting between 19-20 months.


please sir @yomie040, please can I have your number for further clarification?
