Cultivation techniques such as pruning, canopy creation, fertilization, weeding, pest control have not been applied synchronously. Research and transfer of technical advances are still limited and have not met the requirements; The organization of production, the link between farmers, between farmers and businesses is not close.
In order for the cashew industry to develop sustainably, in the coming time, ministries, branches, and localities need to promote intensive farming.
