Watermelon is a popular summer fruit in Korea. Watermelon comprises 91% water, and is rich in fructose and glucose, making it a great fruit to have during the hot summer months that helps quench thirst and recover from fatigue. The photograph shows children looking in awe at apple watermelons (Korean mini watermelon) in full bearing at a farm in Dalseong, Daegu. In Korea, where controlled environment horticulture is developed, a wide variety of watermelons are grown throughout the year. We hope our <Korea Agrafood> readers will beat the scorching heat with sweet and cool watermelons.
