DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MORINGA SEEDS PKM 1 AND PKM 2
PKM – 1 – Plants grow to a height of 4-6 m and come to flower in 90-100 days after planting. The first harvest starts 160-170 days after planting and on an average each tree bears 200-225 fruits / year. Pods are 65-70 cm long with 6.3 cm girth and 150 g weight. Fruits are green coloured and highly pulpy.
PKM-2 is an improvement over PKM-1. PKM-2 has more lateral branching (desirable for more leaf production within hands reach) and a seedpod with more flesh than seeds.
PKM-2 Moringa, the new variety has recorded an average production of 98 tonnes per hectare. It produces long pods of about 125-130 cm with a girth of 8.40 cm. On an average each of these pods weigh about 280 g. The pods are fleshy with good cooking quality. On cooking, the flesh turns soft and delicious with less fibre, according to the scientists, who developed this variety.
Each tree will yield an average 220 fruits weighing about 61.65 kg in a year. Occasionally, the branches break off due to the heavy weight of the pods. Farmers who have seen its performance over the existing varieties prefer this variety. The attractive pod size and high yield potential are the most desirable traits of this improved annual moringa.
Moringa seeds are obtained from the pods of the moringa tree (Moringa Oleifera) or the drumstick tree. Fresh and raw moringa seeds are quite tender, but as soon as they get dried, they become hard and start resembling small beans. The grayish-white seeds with unique wing-like structures can be steamed, boiled or roasted for various purposes.

Benefits Of Moringa Seeds For Skin
- Vitamin A present in the moringa seeds is extremely helpful in maintaining the integrity of our skin. Being an effective antioxidant, it saves our skin cells from the harmful effects of the free radicals and keeps them healthy.

As a result, our hair becomes nourished and strong.
- Vitamin A and zinc present in the moringa seeds are known to promote hair growth considerably. Vitamin A takes care of our scalp and hair tissues by nourishing, repairing and maintaining them in a proper way, while zinc boosts our immune system and keeps the sebaceous glands on our scalp unclogged.
