Melon
|
In Okhotsk, Kunneppu town is famous for melon
cultivation. They began growing melons in hothouses in the forty-eighth
year of Showa (1973). They have also been doing scion root cultivation
since then.
Kunneppu town is able to cultivate sweet melons because it gets
a significant amount of sunlight and the temperature difference
is extreme.
Each melon has a sticker with the name of the producer, which
ensures the quality of the melon. A warranty also comes with
the shipping container.
In Abashiri, they have recently started growing the variety
No net melons. |
