Did You Know???

 

China is the world’s top producer and consumer of pears. In 2006, China produced 10,642,287 metric tons (MT), or 65%, of the world’s pears. Although China produces a high volume of pears, the majority of the pears are domestically consumed.

Most of China’s pears are of the Asian pear family, different from their western counterparts. As a result they do not compete directly with U.S. pears or apples, although these are the closest substitutes. China primarily exports pears to countries in the Southeast Asia region of the world.

It is also has high nutritive value with the functions of clearing away heat and moisturizing dryness in the lungs. The fruit contains about 87% of water, 10-11% of dissolvable sugar as well as starch, carbohydrates and various kinds of vitamins.
