Pepper seed preservation in Denizli

Overview

In the Beyağaç district of Denizli, local farmers are working to preserve regional pepper varieties, such as Kapya, Kale, Beyağaç, and Kayaca.

To maintain the production chain, farmers like Hatice Parıldayan select healthy specimens to save ancestral seeds for future growing seasons. These efforts utilize traditional methods, including animal manure and drip irrigation, to ensure soil fertility. Local officials have noted that protecting these seeds is vital for the district’s agricultural heritage.

As seasonal preparations for winter continue across Turkey, the preservation of these ancestral pepper seeds remains a key component of maintaining agricultural heritage in the Denizli region.
