There are several ways of growing fruit trees.
The common and age-old practice is to plant seeds taken from a tree with best tasting fruits, germinate these then plant.
The problem with seeds is that it would take a long time before the tree will bear fruits.
Also, there is the danger that the seeds may not be a true copy of the mother tree because of cross-pollination.
The best way to ensure that you will have a “true-to-type” planting material which would be a perfect copy of the mother tree is through Asexual Propagation.
Asexual propagation involves the cutting of a twig or a stem of the mother tree which is then nurtured to grow as a perfect clone.
The most common method of Asexual Propagation is Grafting which involves the cutting of a scion from the mother tree to be implanted in a rootstock.
For the EVIARC Sweet Jackfruit, our experience is that Inarching is the best method.
