Pakistan Mulberry fruit production

<< < (2/3) > >>

DesertDust:
I'd assume a mulberry will eventually over take any sized pot and find its way to the ground. The roots are intense.

Also, this is a first I've heard of this state law.
I know my local zoning says I can grow fruit and nut trees, I'm on an unmonitored well that's registered in my name.  :-X

DesertDust:
Another point on the farmers market. I looked into this a bit a few years ago. I think it's the farmers markets organizers that requires the business license, not the state. I inquired with a few counties back then, and to sell fruit you didn't need any license. If I remember correctly, they mentioned there were going to be new laws going into effect regarding "Cottage food laws" which basically let you sell homemade food items without a license, but you need to take a food safety course. Might be worth doing more research because I think it is county dependent.
As with federal and state law that I'm aware of, it depends on how much income you make from the farm, and whether or not you will need to register and have inspections, etc.

But I'm not expert. This is just what I remember when I looked into a few years ago.

In the ground.

I eventually want to scale up if there is enough fruit production, so I'm trying to be on the safe side.  I've seen two small agriculture businesses go out of business with a new administration or the stroke of a pen.  I'm in Maricopa County.

I have a few mulberries in the same container for 3 years now. They fill them up quickly and then just stall out. They don't die but don't produce much after the fill in the pots. You will need to root prune and top prune for any longterm production. Not sure how much in pounds you would get in a 50g size pot, but it should be pretty decent.
