Custard Apples Become Costly in Warangal Amid Supply Decline

Custard apples, once a cheap fruit for everyone, are now very expensive in Warangal.

This is because many of the trees that grow these fruits are being cut down for new buildings.

Also, monkeys are eating the flowers and baby fruits, so they don't grow properly.

This means there aren't as many custard apples to sell.

Even though sellers are selling them for more money, they have fewer fruits to sell, so they aren't making as much profit as before.

People who love to eat these fruits are sad about the high prices, and it's making it hard for poor families who used to sell them to earn money.

Experts say the government needs to help protect the trees and manage the monkeys.
