Introduction to Anzi Yaguang Pear
The characteristics of Anzi District Yaguang Pear are beautiful fruit shape, bright color, thin skin, soft flesh, and fragrant taste. In addition to high sugar content, it also contains nutrients such as protein, fat, various vitamins, minerals, and carbohydrates. It has the effects of clearing the heart, moistening the lungs, relieving cough, eliminating phlegm, clearing the throat, reducing fire, detoxifying, etc. Yaguang pear, with an annual output of 20 million kilograms, is a large traditional export product and has long been renowned in the international market. It is a famous fruit in Anci District, with a long cultivation history and strong adaptability. It has the characteristics of drought resistance, flood resistance, barrenness resistance, salt alkali resistance, easy management, high yield, and long life. The nearly century old tree can still bear a large amount of fruit. Currently, the entire region has developed 50000 acres of Yaguang pears, involving twelve townships in the region, concentrated in Wanzhuang Town, Mingle Township, Jiuzhou Township, and Yangshui Township. The annual output is 30 million kilograms and the output value is 50 million yuan. Yaguang pear is a high-quality raw food variety. After the fruit is ripe, it has a juicy and fragrant aroma. A separation layer is formed between the fruit core and the fruit, which is divided into two halves and has excellent quality. Yaguang pear is rich in mineral elements and nutrients that the human body needs. The soluble solids content reaches 15%, with 100MG of protein, 100MG of fat, 5MG of calcium, and 189MG of potassium per 100g of fruit flesh. The potassium content is 74MG higher than that of Yali pear. According to medical research, potassium is an essential element for human myocardial activity. When lacking, the intracellular fluid decreases, affecting the normal metabolic function of the myocardium. Eating Yaguang pear regularly, especially for patients with cardiovascular disease, is not only beneficial for physical health, but also can prolong life. In 1990, a Soviet forestry inspection team accompanied by experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences visited the area and highly praised Yaguang pear. In 1994, they participated in the National Forestry Famous, Special and Excellent New Products Expo and received high praise, which was well received in the Beijing Tianjin and Northeast regions
