    There is nothing wrong in trying for a world record if you/your agricultural produce really deserve it. The farmer is really proud of the biggest jackfruit he got from his farm. Let's encourage people cultivating vegetables and fruit trees on their farms.
    Let people eat fruits and vegetables free from pesticides.
    After all Jack fruit is the state fruit of Kerala, and it's a powerful medicine for diseases like, diabetes,pressure,cancer etc.
