In Srinagar, harvesting of strawberries has begun. This is the first fruit of the season in Kashmir and is grown mostly in the Gasso area on the outskirts of Srinagar. Gasso is known as the strawberry village and is abuzz with harvesting of this bright red colored fruit. The place is also known for its high-quality strawberries.
The incessant rains, wind storms, and prolonged cold weather in Kashmir sometimes badly hit the strawberry crop, with farmers incurring losses.
It is pertinent to mention here that strawberries are among the first fruits that grow in Kashmir after the six months of harsh winters in the region.
