Avocados are commercially valuable and are cultivated in
tropical and Mediterranean climates throughout the world. They
have a green-skinned, fleshy body that may be pear-shaped,
egg-shaped, or spherical. Commercially, they ripen after
harvesting. Avocado trees are partially self-pollinating, and
are often propagated through grafting to maintain predictable
fruit quality and quantity.
Avocados are a great source of
nutrients, including:
* Folate.
* Mangesium
* Potassium
* Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)
* Niacin(Vitamin B3)
* Pantothenic Acid(Vitamin B5)
* Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6)
