Cheng' an art apple

Cheng 'an Art Apple is a specialty of Cheng 'an County, Handan City, Hebei Province. Square and cylindrical apples are "long" with beautiful and realistic pictures such as Peking Opera masks, Eight Immortals crossing the sea, Twelve Hairpins in Jinling and Riverside Pictures on Qingming Festival. Duan Zhen, a farmer in Cheng 'an Town, the county, with the strong support and technical guidance of the county agricultural bureau, has made unremitting efforts to plant a unique "art apple". In August, 2003, we obtained three patents of fruit modeling issued by China National Intellectual Property Administration. Various shapes are varied, and various patterns are lifelike. In 2006, more than 150 mu of artistic apples were planted, and a total of 8,000 sets of artistic apples were cultivated, which were divided into classical Four Great Classical Novels Atlas, Qingming Riverside Map and other patterns. The average price of each set was more than 400 yuan, of which 50 sets of "Eight Seas Crossing the Sea" were sold in 800 yuan, and the income per mu was more than 20,000 yuan, which was 4-6 times that of ordinary apples. In October this year, the county's "Art Apple" was widely welcomed and praised by domestic and foreign merchants after its appearance at the Agricultural Fair and Agricultural Fair held in Beijing and Langfang.
