Fruits are not growing in Japan

Posted in Japan by Elliott Back on November 20th, 2005.

Due to global warming, some fruits in Japan are having trouble growing normally, according to Japan Today:

Global warming is also expected to force producers to change growing areas. The fruit tree research institute of the National Agriculture and Bio-Oriented Research Organization, or NARO, in Tsukuba, Ibaraki Prefecture, said the annual average temperature to favorably grow apples is 6-14 C, but it will top 14 C in plains in the central part of the Tohoku district in the 2060s, a temperature not suited to apple growing.
