The Origin of the Longan, the Main Production Areas for Longan Cultivation in Taiwan, China, and the Classification of Varieties by Maturity Period
The longan belongs to the Sapindaceae family and is a subtropical evergreen fruit tree. It originated in mainland China, and its cultivation history in Taiwan, China is very early. It was already recorded in works such as the "Zhuluo County Gazetteer" in the 55th year of the Kangxi reign of the Qing Dynasty. It was brought over for cultivation when people from Fujian and Guangdong migrated to Taiwan, China. Although the longan cultivated in Taiwan, China was introduced from mainland China, because of its wide adaptability, strong reproductive capacity, and easy cultivation management, it has developed into the most localized economically cultivated fruit tree in Taiwan, China. What is popular now is the <a href="https://www.nongxun.net/zhongzhi/zz201903311855877506.html">method for growing longan in pots</a>.<br /> <br /> Taiwan, China is currently, besides mainland China and Thailand, one of the world's main longan production areas. According to the "Annual Report of Agricultural Statistics," in the 94th year of the Republic of China, the total cultivated area in Taiwan, China was 12,358 hectares, with an annual output of 102,790 metric tons. The main production areas are Tainan, Kaohsiung, Taichung, Nantou, and Chiayi, with Tainan having the most. The main cultivated variety is "Pink Shell," accounting for about 60% of the cultivated area.</span></span></div> <div> </div> <div> <span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: georgia, serif;">The longan fruit tree has a very wide range of uses. Its wood is tough and its grain is beautiful, making it a superior material for furniture and carved products. Besides being eaten fresh, the fruit can be dried into longan and processed into canned longan, longan wine, longan paste, and so on. In recent years, the food industry has produced a great many processed products using dried longan flesh as a raw material, causing the consumption of dried longan flesh in Taiwan, China to increase year by year, which has been of great help in easing the pressure on Taiwan, China's fresh longan fruit market.</span></span></div> <div> </div> <div> <span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: georgia, serif;">The longan cultivars grown in Taiwan, China are very mixed, mostly consisting of natural forest-like stands of many naturally variant plants planted together. To facilitate market transactions, they have long been divided into only 4 major categories according to fruit size and quality: Fuyan, Shuiyan, Tangsuanrouyan, and Niuzaiyan.</span></span></div> <div> </div> <div> <span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: georgia, serif;">The Chiayi Agricultural Experiment Branch Station and Chung Hsing University have carried out variety improvement and identification and selection work. To date, surveys have discovered as many as more than 70 cultivated varieties. Although there are many varieties, cultivated varieties change quite rapidly. The 8 more important varieties can be divided into 3 categories according to maturity period: (1) early-maturing (fruit harvested in early to mid-July): Zhuqi Zaosheng, (2) mid-maturing (fruit harvested from late July to late August): Pink Shell, Large Pink Shell, Red Shell, Green Shell, Shuigong, (3) late-maturing (fruit harvested from September to mid-October): Fanlu Wansheng, October.</span></span></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: georgia, serif;"><img alt="" src="/uploads/allimg/190615/2-1Z61510044Mc.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 323px;" /></span></span></div>
