Lan Shan Kumquat
Kumquat is one of China’s traditional famous fruits, distributed across several provinces in South China and the Yangtze River basin. In our province, the cultivation of kumquats in Lan Shan County has a history of over 140 years, covering an area of more than 2,000 acres, making it an important kumquat production base.
Lan Shan Kumquat, also known as Lan Shan Golden Ball, is a large-fruited premium variety, boasting four outstanding advantages: excellent fruit quality, wide range of uses, good storability and transportability, and strong market demand; the trees are compact with dense branching, making them easy to manage and suitable for high-density planting; they grow quickly, bear fruit early, and yield highly; they recover rapidly from frost damage, resuming growth and fruiting swiftly with minimal economic loss, hence their long-standing reputation. The kumquat fruit has a distinctive fragrance and is rich in nutrients. It can be eaten fresh or processed into products such as candied kumquats, kumquat flowers, or kumquat preserves. Eating kumquats helps regulate qi, moisten the lungs, dissolve phlegm, relieve coughs, aid digestion, and strengthen the body. They have proven effective in treating bronchitis and asthma, and are highly popular in both domestic and international markets.
