Unique Geographical Location
Our factory is located in Kashi District, Xinjiang, which is the oasis at the edge of Taklimakan Desert. We are located between 34 degree to 50 degree of north latitude, the same as the famous fruit production bases in Bordeaux, France and California, the USA. Xinjiang is one of the 6 major fruit areas in the temperate hardwood zone, with diverse wild and cultivated species.
Furthermore, Xinjiang is one of the essential places of the ancient Silk Way, and is the only conjunction between the 4 ancient civilizations, including China, India, Persia and Greece-Roma, as described by Dr. Stein, with enriched historical and cultural resources.
Unique Climate
Xinjiang has the typical dry climate in temperate zone, with sufficient sunshine (over 2,600 hours every year), high accumulate temperature (over 4,000 degrees as active accumulated temperature above 10 degree), low precipitation (average annual natural precipitation of 155mm), large vaporization (over 2,400mm every year), dry climate, long frost-free period and large temperature difference between day and night. Meanwhile, its yearly solar radiation is lower than Tibet. All of these factors help the growth and differentiation of fruits and vegetables.
Unique Water
The wide-spread mountains in Xinjiang create the huge mountain glacier, which forms a lot of rivers and clear water quality. Since the precipitation is low in Xinjiang, the farms and orchards are usually irrigated by glacier water, which is originated from Pamirs, containing low deuterium and tritium (at -20 to -38 degree), low radiation, high activeness and free of modern pollutants. The natural weak base water is known as the water of life, which explains the longevity of the natives.
Unique Resources
Xinjiang is the original and secondary center of a number of fruit trees, with rich resources. The wild fruit trees include 13 sorts, 28 categories, 93 species, 4 variations and 148 types. Due to sufficient sunshine, low precipitation, great temperature difference between day and night and the irrigation of the glacier, the plants have longer growth cycle, less diseases and insects, colorful appearance, high sugar content and more glamorous fragrance.
We provide variety of fruits with outstanding quality. Our products are quality apricots, plums, megranate, grapes, peaches and mulberries. In history, the melons, fragrant pears, jujubes and grapes in Xinjiang were tributes to empires.
