Researchers at the Indian Vegetable Research Institute in Varanasi have developed a method to breed eggplants and tomatoes on the same plant, yielding up to 2.3 kg of tomatoes and 2.64 kg of eggplants per plant. The grafting method, which takes 18 days, involves grafting an eggplant plant with a tomato plant when they are at a certain age, and keeping the plant in a controlled environment until it is ready for transplanting. The scientists plan to expand the large-scale cultivation of this novelty plant, known as brimato, and are experimenting with grafting other vegetables. Each brimato plant can grow in a small area and produce both vegetables in 60-70 days.

Agricultural scientists from the Indian Vegetable Research Institute in Varanasi have successfully bred brimato (brimato - brinjal (eggplant) and tomato (tomato), a plant that grows eggplants and tomatoes. Each plant yields up to 2.3 kg of tomatoes and 2.64 kg of eggplant There are already plans for large-scale cultivation of the novelty.
