محصول
Spondias dulcis, commonly known as ambarella or June plum, is typically harvested when the fruits turn from green to a golden-yellow color, indicating ripeness. Harvesting is usually done by hand, either by picking the fruits directly from the tree or by using a pole with a basket attached to reach higher branches. It is important to handle the fruits gently to avoid bruising.
