PEACH CULTIVATION
Annual peach production worldwide amounts to some 11 million tons. The main producers of nectarines (a hybrid of different peach strains) are China, Italy, Greece, Spain and Turkey, accounting for about 70% of the total world harvest. The crop is also widespread in the Middle East, Northern and Southern Africa, Canada, South America and Oceania.
Over 50% of Italy's annual production, equal to approximately a million tons, originates from two regions: Emilia-Romagna and Campania.
