The production area of Jinxiu yellow peach is most concentrated in Qingcun Town, Fengxian, Shanghai.

Jinxiu yellow peach is a fresh-eating yellow peach variety with golden flesh and a rich aroma, bred by a local agricultural research institution in Shanghai. Its main production area is located in Fengxian District, Shanghai, and the Qingcun Town area in particular has a long planting history and concentrated planting scale, and has long enjoyed the reputation of the hometown of yellow peaches.

Fengxian is located on the north shore of Hangzhou Bay, with flat terrain and a dense river network. It has a subtropical monsoon climate, with ample sunlight in summer, and the diurnal temperature difference during the fruit swelling period is conducive to sugar accumulation. The local soil layer is deep, loose, breathable and well drained, while peach trees are afraid of waterlogging, so such an environment is exactly suitable for yellow peach root growth, providing a stable natural foundation for fruit quality.

In terms of fruit characteristics, Jinxiu yellow peach is a late-maturing variety, generally concentrated on the market in late summer and early autumn. The ripe fruit is relatively large, with golden skin tinged with red, golden and delicate flesh, abundant juice, relatively high sweetness and an obvious aroma. It is suitable both for fresh eating and for processing into juice, canned goods and other products.

When selecting, you can judge by combining the production area and the marketing season. Authentic Jinxiu yellow peaches have golden flesh and an obvious fruity aroma, and those that feel slightly soft usually have better ripeness. In recent years, the production area has also often developed picking experiences and rural tourism in parallel, and the yellow peach industry has driven farmers to increase their income, gradually becoming a local calling card of Fengxian agriculture.
