1. Snowflake pear

The Snowflake pear is a specialty of Hebei. Its skin is dark green, rather rough and somewhat hard.

2. Ya pear

The Ya pear is an ancient variety from Wei County, Hebei Province. It gets its name because the stalk end of the fruit bulges and looks like a duck's head, so it is called the Ya pear (duck pear). It has strong adaptability, high yield, and tolerates transport and storage. It is rich in vitamin B and has effects such as protecting the heart, lowering blood pressure, and loosening the joints and muscles. The Ya pear is also a relatively common variety on the market, and its prospects for cultivation are very great; its national sales are not far off those of the Snowflake pear, and growing Ya pears is also a good project.

3. Apple pear

The apple pear is mainly produced in Jilin Province. Because it is rather flat and round, with skin that is yellow with a hint of red, very much like an apple, it is called the apple pear. It is produced in Northeast China, and the fruit is cold-resistant and high-yielding, with crisp, refreshing flesh, and is called "the finest of the northern pears." It is nutritious, containing vitamin C, B1 and calcium and other nutrients, and has effects such as dispelling dampness and relieving pain, and reducing internal heat and relieving constipation. Apple pears all over the country originate from Jilin. If you want to grow pears, it is not recommended to grow apple pears, since after all the competition is greater.

4. Korla fragrant pear

Among all the varieties, the Korla fragrant pear is smaller in size and oval in appearance, but it is fragrant and juicy, with thin skin and a refreshing taste, and is rich in nutrients. Its water content reaches 90%. In the ** region, it can not only be eaten raw but also made into pear wine, pear paste and other foods. It has effects such as clearing heat and detoxifying, but it is not recommended to take the Korla fragrant pear as a cultivation direction, because the Korla fragrant pear is produced in ** and does not adapt to the environment in other regions.

Pears have a series of effects such as clearing heat and detoxifying, and reducing internal heat and relieving constipation, and they also have a good effect on the body's metabolism. However, if you want to plant them on a large scale, the editor suggests choosing between the Snowflake pear and the Ya pear, because the latter two may have greater environmental requirements and cannot grow normally.
