How much is the purchase price of calcium fruit per jin? What benefits does it have for the human body?
The scientific name of calcium fruit is actually Prunus humilis (Chinese dwarf cherry), and it is called calcium fruit because its fruit is high in calcium. For most people this fruit should be rather unfamiliar; it is a minor fruit variety, with a very limited planting area, mostly concentrated in Shanxi, Shandong and the Northeast and other places, and its yield is not very high either. So what is the purchase price of calcium fruit? What benefits does it have for the human body?
1. The purchase price of calcium fruit
Because the planting area of calcium fruit is small and its yield is also limited, its price is somewhat higher than that of ordinary fruits; the purchase price at the place of origin is around 10-15 yuan per jin. However, since it does not keep well and must be refrigerated throughout transportation, in other regions the price is relatively high, around 30-50 yuan. The prices here are only for everyone's reference; for more specific prices, the local market price shall prevail.
Calcium fruit is a new, high-quality fruit variety unique to our country. It was discovered and bred from the wild plant Prunus humilis by Professor Du Junjie, a fruit tree expert in our country, over nearly thirty years. The fruit of calcium fruit is round or oblate, shaped like a cherry, with a glossy surface and no fruit powder, and comes in many colors such as purple, yellow and red, with very high ornamental value. In recent years, picking orchards have been established in northern regions, and this variety has become a hot-selling fruit.
