一、产区特点：Characteristics of the production area:
"1、地处北半球中纬度地带的塔里木盆地西北部，是新疆重要的绿洲带。
2、属暖温带大陆性气候，光热资源丰富，年平均太阳总辐射量130—141千卡/平方厘米，日照2855—2967小时，无霜期长达205—219天，年均气温7℃—8℃。
3、北高南低，日照丰富，热量适宜，受西风带上天气系统影响和西、北两面分别有海拔在4000米以上的帕米尔高原和天山阻隔，东面距塔里木盆地向东的缺口500千米以上，冷空气不易直接人侵。
4、盆地边缘绿洲区斜坡地形，增强光能有效利用率，满足苹果对热量条件的需求；浅山区以及绿洲都是灌溉农业，光、热、水等气候条件更适合种植晚熟和中晚熟苹果品种。
1. Located in the mid latitude of the Northern Hemisphere, the northwest of the Tarim Basin is an important oasis belt in Xinjiang.
2. It belongs to a warm temperate continental climate with abundant solar and thermal resources. The annual average total solar radiation is 130-141 kcal/cm ², with 2855-2967 hours of sunshine and a frost free period of 205-219 days. The average annual temperature is 7 ℃ -8 ℃.
3. It is high in the north and low in the south, with abundant sunshine and suitable heat. Influenced by the weather system on the westerly belt, the Pamirs Plateau and Tianshan Mountains with an altitude of more than 4000 meters are located in the west and north respectively, and the gap to the east of the Tarim Basin is more than 500 kilometers away from the east, so the cold air is not easy to be directly invaded by humans.
4. Slope terrain in the oasis area on the edge of the basin enhances the effective utilization of light energy and meets the heat demand of apples; Shallow mountain areas and oases are both irrigated agriculture, and climate conditions such as light, heat, and water are more suitable for planting late maturing and mid late maturing apple varieties."
