Lychee is one of the important sub-tropical fruit crops of Nepal after mango, banana and guava. It was introduced by the Rana who ruled the country for 104 years. It is reported that the Rana were very fond of fruit farming and gardening and introduced lychee from India and Burma and planted them in the Terai (Plain), low hills and mid-hills at altitudes ranging from 61 m in the Terai to 950 m in the mid-hills. Although lychee plants were planted and tried at Kathmandu (1,344) by the Rana in their palaces, the plants died due to cold weather and frost.Geographically, Nepal is divided into three physical parts. These are the Terai, Hills and Mountains, the altitude of which ranges from 60 m above mean sea level in the Terai to 8,845 m in the Mountains. Because of these variations in the, Nepal enjoys a sub-tropical climate in the Terai and a cool temperate climate in the Mountains, which are suitable for farming various kinds of fruits. Farming is limited within 3,000 m altitude. Lychee is a sub-tropical crop and needs sub-tropical frost free areas during winter and favours well-drained moist soil rather than dry soil. It is, therefore, the Terai districts of the Central Developmental Region that have the highest areas under lychee followed by Terai districts of the Eastern Development Region.
