Low yield of greenhouse fruit (early red, red light, etc.) price.

Constrained by its own conditions, the cherry itself is a short supply period, low yield relative to other fruits, intolerant of storage and transportation, sales link is difficult to deal with, belonging to the risk of slightly higher fruit, more delicate, deterioration is extremely fast. Wholesale and retail links to increase the price more, resulting in high retail prices.

Origin is more limited, origin and sales of intermediate links. The main producing areas for Shandong, Weinan, other areas difficult to do the scale of supply. So in comparison, the south is more expensive than the north.

Growing environment:

Born in sunny places on mountain slopes or ditch sides, often cultivated, 300-600 meters above sea level. Cherry is light-loving, temperature-loving, moisture-loving, fertilizer-loving fruit trees, suitable for growth in the average annual temperature of 10-12 ℃, annual precipitation of 600-700mm, annual sunshine hours of 2600-2800h or more of climatic conditions.

The average daily temperature is higher than 10℃ for 150-200d, and the extreme minimum temperature in winter is not lower than -20℃ can grow well and have normal results.

Cherry garden sites can be selected in the spring temperature rises slowly, air circulation of the northwest slope. Considering the shallow distribution of cherry root system is easy to wind fall, the garden to be in the section not subject to wind damage is preferable, the soil to loose soil, deep soil layer of sandy loam is preferred.
