EVIARC Sweet Jackfruit: Fruit and Tree Characteristics
EVIARC Sweet is a registered jackfruit variety, also sold or known as EVIARC Sweet langka or EVIARC jackfruit. It was registered with the National Seed Industry Council in 2006 as NSIC 2006 Jf 05. RIARC Satellite Abuyog bred it. Its record notes a yield of 30 to 40 mature fruits.
The average and top yields in tonnes per hectare come from the trials each variety went through to be registered with the NSIC, and from what the seed companies say about their own seed.
What farmers harvest today can be different. Newer harvest records, the season, the place, the soil, the water and the care all move these numbers over time.
So use them to compare varieties, not as a promise for your field. Ask your seller or your agriculturist how the variety did on farms near you in the last few seasons.

When does it bear, and how much?
A registered tree variety is described from its mother tree, not from trial plots. The mother tree of EVIARC Sweet was about 19 years old and about 7 meters tall when it was registered. Its record notes a yield of 30 to 40 mature fruits. It bears every year, with fruit in Jun Aug. (Major Fruiting) Dec. Feb. (Minor fruiting). A grafted or marcotted tree bears years sooner than one grown from seed, and its yield climbs as the tree grows.

Where and when to plant EVIARC Sweet jackfruit
Pick a selection by flesh: firm and crisp for fresh eating and processing, or soft and sweet. Grafted trees of a named selection bear true. A registered tree variety is a selection from one proven mother tree, and only grafted, budded or marcotted plants carry its traits. A seedling grown from its seed can turn out quite different. So buy from a nursery accredited by the Bureau of Plant Industry, and ask which mother tree the scions came from. Before planting, get the field ready with our guide: Pagtatanim ng puno.
Before you buy planting material
- Buy grafted or budded plants from an accredited nursery, with the variety name on the tag.
