AYAKUDI ATTRACTS GUAVA LOVERS

    

 


 

Ayakudi originally means Ayar (shepherd) kudi (dwelling place), which aligns itself with the settlement of pastoralists in the "Mullai" land of the Sangam landscape.

   Ayakudi is 60 kilometers from Thenkasi District, and the nearest railway station is Tenkasi, which is 6 kilometers away. The nearest airport is in Thoothukudi. 

Ayakudi is a Selection Grade Town Panchayat which situated as 5th km towards Palani. In This TP is connected with other Villages and Towns like Coimbatore, Palani, Dindigul, and Pollachi.

It is located in a favorable pleasing atmosphere of being situated in the Kodaikanal of the western ghat.

  Ayakudi is thought to be the place where the kings of Ay Kingdom originated. The city is known for guava. It is filled with nature on the slopes of Kodaikanal.

Guava (or) Koyya in Tamil is the fruit with the most health benefits, it has four times of vitamin C content compared to Orange.

The fruits are round to pear-shaped and measure up to 7.6 cm in diameter; their pulp contains many small hard seeds (more abundant in wild forms than in cultivated varieties). The fruit has yellow skin and white, yellow, or pink flesh.

If both rainy and winter season crops are taken, more yields may be obtained in the rainy season. Guavas are harvested throughout the year (except during May and June) in one or the other region of the country.

While guava can be grown from seed, it will not be true to the parent and may take up to eight years to produce fruit. Trees are more commonly propagated via cuttings and layering. In this case, guava tree fruiting should occur when the tree is three or four years of age.

Guava is successfully grown in tropical and subtropical climates.  Although guava tolerates drought, protective irrigation facilities are required.

Concerning the cultivation of guava in Tamil Nadu, Ayakudi stands among the best places for its cultivation. The existence of Ayakudi Guava and Fruits Producer Company Ltd is proof of this.

In your next trip to Tamil Nadu, do include Ayakudi in your itinerary.
