Fruit farming

Discussions about how and where we produce food are set to continue for a long time.

Japan’s prefecture of Hokkaido hosted the season’s first premium watermelon auctions, where rare fruits sell for over $4,000.

Food science start-up Apeel has acquired ImpactVision, a company that uses AI and machine learning to track the composition of food throughout its shelf life.

Japan and Malaysia each have perfected the art of growing high-class fruit. Now, the fruits are ready to be sold for a high price.
