First, Junzao dates were first introduced to Shanxi and other places in Shaanxi. When they arrived in Xinjiang, they were found to be bigger and sweeter than Junzao dates in Shanxi and Shaanxi, and gradually became famous, and the planting area increased. Junzao is called Goutouzao in northern Shaanxi, because it is named after a big head and a small head.
2. Junzao, which was transplanted to Xinjiang in 1980s, was first planted in Hotan area. Thanks to the long sunshine, sandy soil, strong radiation, high accumulated temperature, and large temperature difference (sufficient sunshine of 15 hours per day, temperature difference of more than 20 degrees between day and night), it had a frost-free period of 220 days throughout the year, and later formed the proprietary trademark "Hetian Yuzao" for short.
Third, with unique natural conditions, the quality of Xinjiang Junzao is obviously superior to that of Shanxi Junzao.
