The sweet cherry variety Salihli 0900 Ziraat is today one of the most popular cherry cultivars grown in Turkey. The fruit owes its global leading position among sweet cherries to its particularly large size, its firm, sweet flesh, its long green stem, its good transport properties and excellent storability. The Salihli 0900 Ziraat is cultivated under many different names in many regions of Turkey. Sweet cherries do not only taste good; in natural medicine they are used as a remedy against parodontitis and arthritis, and according to one study, cherry juice alleviates the pain and loss of power associated with stiff muscles. |
