The Yeoju pear is the up and coming
specialty product of the region. From mid to late
April, the pear blossoms begin to bloom and the
clusters of fruit tend to weed out the smaller fruits
leaving behind only one promising fruit for each
cluster. As the pears begin to ripen, they are wrapped
to prevent bugs from getting to them and are harvested
anywhere from mid September to mid October. This
“1 fruit for 1 cluster” type of harvesting is what
makes Yeoju pears bigger and rounder than pears
from other regions.
Each and every farmer has done his or her part to
make Yeoju pears the best in the nation.
The Yeoju Public Assembly has been gathering since
1986. The 10 members cut costs by sharing the work
involved in growing pears and have commercialized
the Yeoju pear to make it the best in the country
and in the world. By sharing information and learning
about new farming techniques, they are working hard
to improve the quality of the Yeoju pear. Since
1997, Yeoju has been exporting pears to Japan, Canada,
Guam, Hong Kong and Indonesia, and the Yeoju pear
has received rave reviews throughout the world.
Besides using grains to improve the fertility of
the soil, Yeoju farmers utilize natural farming
techniques by nurturing their pears with Eastern
medicines, bacteria, fish amino acids and calcium,
and do not use any herbicides or pesticides.
