KANDAHAR, Afghanistan, Sept. 26 (Xinhua) -- Afghanistan is known as the country of pomegranate fruit in view of not only its conventional methods of cultivation but also the quality of the landraces grown.
The southern province of Kandahar is famous for its flavorsome pomegranates, and local farmers look forward to exploring bigger markets outside of their war-torn country.
