Its native range is somewhat uncertain due to extensive cultivation since\nprehistoric times, but it is most likely native to northern and western China and Central Asia,\npossibly as well as Korea and Japan. Apricot is a fruit tree, belonging to the family Rosaceae,\ngenus Prunus. It is a medium-sized tree with a wide and dense crown. The leaves have a\nlanceolate shape with a length of 8 cm. The flowers are white or pink. The fleshy fruits, which\ncan be covered with bristles, are orange-yellow colored with red hues and have a hard seed in\nthe center. Apricot is a highly prized species for its tasty and fragrant fruits, used fresh,\nprocessed in the form of dried apricots or in the form of compote, jam, jam, juice, nectar,\ncassava and liqueurs.<\/p>\n<p>Since the apricot has been cultivated since ancient times in many countries, the exact origin of\nthis fruit tree is not known. However, the apricot is appreciated all over the world due to its juicy\nand aromatic fruits.<\/p>\n<p>Apricot culture is difficult because it is a demanding species in terms of climate and soil, and in\naddition it is affected by an incompletely known disease that causes premature death. In\nRomania, apricot culture is not extended to the level of possibilities, being in an obvious\ndecrease in recent years. If in 1991 apricot culture occupied 1.7% of the area of \u200b\u200bexisting\nplantations and 2.9% of fruit production, respectively 43 thousand tons, in 1999, fruit production\ndecreased to 28 thousand tons, representing only 1.8% of total production.<br \/>\nApricots are a rich source of magnesium, potassium, beta-carotene, calcium, iron and vitamins\nA, C and B. They fight anemia, various viruses, speed up wound healing, stimulate liver and\nheart activity and are an ally in the fight against cancer. If you consume them before the meal,\n\nyou will have an easier digestion. In Europe, apricots have long been considered an\naphrodisiac. In traditional medicine, apricots were used to detoxify the body and reduce thirst.<br \/>\nIn 2018, the total production of apricots and blackberries was 35.7 thousand tons, an increase\nof 1.8 thousand tons compared to 2017. In Tulcea county, the production of apricots and\nblackberries was 135 tons in 2018, increasing by 43 tons compared to 2017.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The apricot (Prunus armeniaca) is a species of Prunus, classified together with the plum in the\nsubgenus Prunus.
