Cherimoya (Annona cherimola)
“Apple custard” is one of the native fruits of the Bolivian Andean regions. It is considered one of the most delicious fruits in the world, and is generally cultivated in subtropical climates. In the region of Cochabamba, there are five varieties of cherimoya tree, and all of them grow better in mesothermic valleys characterized by semi-arid climate. Cherimoya trees are rather small (height is between 5 and 10 m) but have a high foliage density, which increases their carbon sequestration capability. It is generally cultivated close to other fruit trees such as avocado and “pacay”.
