Origin: Arita, Wakayama Prefecture
These sweet and rich mandarins are grown in Arita, Wakayama Prefecture, using a special method called argit cultivation. They are not just sweet, but also have a deep flavor and a lingering aftertaste, which are the defining features of argit mandarins.
This is a non-standard product that was purchased from a farmer who had a small scratch and was unable to sell it as a regular product.
(Please see photos for damage)
As a result, the price is more affordable than the market price.
What is algit cultivation?
---------------------
Algit is a powdered seaweed that is mainly harvested in Northern Europe and is rich in minerals, which are essential nutrients for plant growth.
Minerals are not normally produced in the soil, so cultivation methods that rely on chemical fertilizers will eventually result in a mineral deficiency in the soil.
By using Algit to replenish the minerals in the soil consumed by mandarin oranges, you can create healthy, fertile soil. By making the most of the soil's potential, you can grow mandarin oranges that are unique from others.
Furthermore, the "Arita mikan" is grown in the Arita region of Wakayama Prefecture, so it is exposed to plenty of sunlight and has an exquisite taste.
