The floating guava market of Nesarabad in Pirojpur is full. Guava from this market is going all over the country. Farmers are losing money every year due to not getting a fair price, not having a cold storage and not having a business-friendly environment. Even since guava exports have stopped, farmers are not able to make profits like before. Therefore, farmers have demanded to be given the opportunity to export guava abroad. On the other hand, guava worth crores of taka is being wasted every year due to the lack of cold storage. Farmers are facing losses. Thousands of tourists flock to Nesarabad every year, focusing on one of the largest guava gardens in South Asia. The entire region, including the guava gardens, is full of tourists.
It is known that the floating guava market, built at the mouth of the canal on the border of Nesarabad and Jhalakathi in Pirojpur, is a new horizon of world-class tourism potential. The traditional guava gardens here have now opened the door to the potential of eco-tourism or environmentally friendly tourism in Bangladesh. Focusing on this nearly 200-year-old tradition, a huge crowd of domestic and foreign tourists has gathered in this area during the monsoon season, especially from July to September.
