fruit

Due to the special geographical location and unique natural environment in Xinjiang, the climate is dry and little rain, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and the sunshine time is long. During the day, plants can fully absorb light, carry out photosynthesis, and form a lot of starch and sugar in fruits. The temperature gradually decreases at night, and the respiration of plants is weakened, which can effectively reduce the consumption of nutrients. Therefore, a large number of nutrients can be accumulated in fruits, such as cantaloupe, grapes and other fruits.
