PKM-1 is a classic perennial moringa variety developed by Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Periyakulam. Decades after its release, it remains one of the most widely recognised and market-accepted moringa varieties in India.
Why farmers love PKM-1
- Long, fleshy pods: attractive pods with good taste — traders and customers know the name.
- Reliable perennial: steady harvests year after year with basic care.
- Good for beginners: forgiving variety that performs across soil types (with drainage).
- Leaf + pod: quality leaves for powder alongside the pod crop.
Best for
Farmers selling to vegetable markets where pod appearance matters, beginners wanting a safe first variety, and anyone building a long-term moringa orchard.
Growing tips
- Space 3 m × 3 m; 45 cm pits enriched with FYM.
- Prune annually after harvest — keeps pods low and the tree productive.
