Tokyo: How much can you pay for an orange like a small canoe? But if the Japanese people like it, they can pay Rs 15,000 for a single fruit.
Yes, according to a new report, a crate of oranges has sold for 96 9,600 in the Japanese fruit market, before the smoky auction. This is because these little mandarin oranges taste so good and the Japanese love to eat the precious fruit. Earlier, the same Japanese had paid 27,000 for a special watermelon.

In the local language, these oranges are called mican, and a crate sold for 1.53 million rupees on Thursday in Tokyo’s main wholesale market. Its full name is Satsuma Mandarin Orange, which is cultivated very delicately on the island of Ahaim. Its skin is thin and easily peeled off, with a deep orange pulp inside. It is said that every spoonful of sweetness dissolves in the mouth. The most famous of these is Hinomaro.

Hinomaro oranges are grown on a limited area. In this area, 100 trained farmers grow the best quality oranges. Under normal circumstances, a 10 kg patty of mandarin orange sells for only 75 75, but this time it has sold for a record price.
Last year, 24 clusters of ruby grapes were auctioned in Japan for 11 11,000. That’s why auctioning off luxury fruit at extraordinary prices is common in Japan.
