	Jujube can be eaten as fresh and processed. Jujube contains 85.9% water, 0.8% protein, 0.1% fat, 12.8% carbohydrate, 0.03% calcium, 0.03% phosphorus, 0.8% iron. Per 100g edible portion, jujube contains 55KCAL, 70 IU carotene and 50-150mg vit C. Jujube used in different food preparation like jam, jelly, chatney, pickles, juice etc. Lac also produced in the jujube tree with the help of insect ''Tachardia laccad''.

	''Species and variety'' Jujube belong to the genus ''Zizyphus'' which consisted about 40 species. Among these species ''Z. mauritiana'' and ''Z. jujuba'' are the cultivated ones. ''Z. mauritiana'' is called Indian jujube and ''Z. jujuba'' is called Chinese jujube. The popular varieties in Bangladesh are BAU kul, 1, 2, BARI kul 1, 2, Narkeli, Sabzi, Apple etc.		'''''Species and variety''''' Jujube belong to the genus ''Zizyphus'' which consisted about 40 species.

	''Cultivation'' Jujube can be planted through out the year but March to May is the best time for planting. Deep loamy or fertile soil is the best. Planting should be done at the spacing of 3 in the pit of 75-100cm diameter and depth. Before planting in a pit, 20-30 kg well decomposed cowdung, 150g TSP, 150g MP, 100g Urea and 100-200g decomposed oil cake should be applied. In the first planted crops before and after rainy season 50g of each MP and TSP and 20 g of Urea, 20-30kg cowdung and 100g oil cake need to be applied. Amount of fertilizers should be increased as the age of the plants increases.		''Cultivation'' Jujube can be planted through out the year but March to May is the best time for planting.

	''Other operations'' Jujube fruits generally born on newly emerged branches so pruning is essential for jujube. Off shoots (shoots arising from below the graft Union) should be removed. After harvesting of the fruits generally at the end of March all branches keeping 3-5 feet height should be deheaded. Coal tar should be applied on the cut surface. No wild jujube plants should be allowed near the jujube garden to avoid disease like powdery mildew, fruit fly etc.		''Other operations'' Jujube fruits generally born on newly emerged branches so pruning is essential for jujube.

	''Cultivation in Tub/Half drum'' Jujube can be grown successfully in the tub or in half drum. Planting in Mar-May in Tub having 50% well decomposed cowdung and 50% loamy soil can be done. As the new shoots arises, 2-3 tablet fertilizers (silvamax/Silvamix forte) may be applied at 5-7cm depth. Irrigation and drainage should be done properly.

Planting should be done at the spacing of 3 in the pit of 75-100cm diameter and depth. Before planting in a pit, 20-30 kg well decomposed cowdung, 150g TSP, 150g MP, 100g Urea and 100-200g decomposed oil cake should be applied. In the first planted crops before and after rainy season 50g of each MP and TSP and 20 g of Urea, 20-30kg cowdung and 100g oil cake need to be applied. Amount of fertilizers should be increased as the age of the plants increases.		'''''Cultivation '''''''''''Jujube can be planted through out the year but March to May is the best time for planting.

	~~<p class=Normal >~~''Other operations'' Jujube fruits generally born on newly emerged branches so pruning is essential for jujube. Off shoots (shoots arising from below the graft Union) should be removed. After harvesting of the fruits generally at the end of March all branches keeping 3-5 feet height should be deheaded. Coal tar should be applied on the cut surface. No wild jujube plants should be allowed near the jujube garden to avoid disease like powdery mildew, fruit fly etc.		''Other operations'' Jujube fruits generally born on newly emerged branches so pruning is essential for jujube.
