They now hope to expand cultivation with support from the government.
Favourable weather conditions and the availability of relatively cheap fertilisers led to a huge harvest this season, according to farmers.
Yardlong bean, also known as asparagus bean, was farmed on 50 hectares of land in Brahmanbazar and Baramchal unions of Kulaura this year, up from 40 hectares in 2020, data from the Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE) shows.
The region produces three varieties of legume. It is considered a good yield when one bigha of land produces 10 to 12 maunds of yardlong bean two months after planting.
Amid the ongoing harvesting period, many local women are engaged in collecting the vegetable. They are paid a portion of the harvest as wages.
