      China was the top producer until their 1 child policy, now India's overtaking China, though China's 1.43 billion people compared to India's 1.36 shows India's closing the gap.
      Interestingly enough, the top producer of humans per capita (ie has highest % change in population) is actually Bahrain in Asia with a growth rate of about 4.6%.

    China produces that much because it has a lot of arable land and also a lot of demand from its internal large population, same with India. US falls behind in fruits because it mainly produces crops like soybeans or corn and meat/livestock like beef which it leads in the world. India leads in world milk production and etc. Ultimately it depends on factors like culture, climate and labour and these make China more competitive in producing certain fruits.

      Even as a northern/central Canadian, I feel this. Never mind fruits originating here, most won't even grow, here. We have a very short apple season, as well as a few other very hardy fruit trees that can grow reasonably well... But we're not prime growing ground for much.
      Probably obvious, but I feel very fortunate for the globalisation of seasonal produce. If not for that, we would have to go back to eating a small variety of canned and dried fruits and veggies, compotes, jams, and similar, for the majority of the year. 😭

      Olive was originated from an area between Syria and Iraq. The time it was domesticated civilization even hadnt arrived to Italy.
      Grape and wine both were domesticated and made first in Zagros Mountains of Western Iran.
      Mangos are domesticated in India and India is the biggest producer not China.

    I think that one of the most important fruits he didn't mention is Theobroma cacao, "Cacao", originally from central México to Central América, Gahana and Cote d'Ivory are the frist producers, also produced by Brazil and others in America, and this fruit is produced for making cocoa powder and cocoa butter, for making "xocolatl"(shocolatl), "bitter water", mixed with sugar and milk for getting chocolate candiles. This guy put Cacao in Spices.
    Tomato, from south America, trade by Incas and Mesoamericans, named "xictomatl"(shictomatl), that mean "umbilic tomato"-"bellybotton tomato", trade by Mexicas and Spaniards during expeditions, Spaniards traded tomatos with Italy and Italy with China.
    Zapotl- from south Mexico and Central America, I think is important fruits, Zapotecas used this fruits for long time its sweet and tasty, the rubber of the trees were used for making xicle (shiclE) - "chicle"-"bublegum".

Also random mint and mustard plants in the far backyard.

      I am kinda confused about strawberries because here in Serbia we have wild greener and tinier strawberries that have been collected by our people for hundreds of years, but my guess they are a species of raspberries and when the modern-day strawberries came here they looked and tasted really close to the species of raspberries we had here that we distinguished from the regular raspberries so we just started calling strawberries that name because we thought it was the same fruit. I assume what we call strawberries here and what we call wild strawberries have little to do with each other, but I'm not sure

      What's even cooler is that if you go outside into the landscape of whatever country you're living in, many of the plants and animals you see will not have originated in that landscape. An example would be Lagomorphs such as rabbits, and fruits such as strawberries in the British Isles. Rabbits originated on the Eurasian mainland, and strawberries from the Americas. However, if you go outside into the woods or countryside, you will see lots of rabbits and strawberry plants, as if they had always been a part of the ecosystem.

    • @Chowkidar_Chor_hai
      @Chowkidar_Chor_hai ปีที่แล้ว

      Meanwhile while the "origin of spices" Book gets written somewhere and then it gets published, you can spend your meaningful life reading "origin of species".
      .
      Except Allspice (origin west Indies), Nutmeg (upper South America) & Chilli Pepper (Mexico, Chile, Panama, Gautemala etc), almost all other spices invariably came from the green monsoon archipelago of Malaysia, Sarawak, Taiwan, East Indies, Borneo, Papua New Guinea and of course Indonesian islands.
      .
      The reason is simple. Actually, when the Indian subcontinent plate drifted from the outskirts of Africa and rammed into Asian plate.....it lifted the Asian plate to form the tall himalaya hills.
      .
      Before that the South Asian land was sort of down to earth with Today's GOBI DESERT being the largest fresh water lake in the world.
      .
      Most of the islands were all connected with the main land.
      .
      Then the sea was far lower and more than 50% of the sea today around the lower eastern part of Asia was actually all connected to the mainland itself.
      .
      Then it was directly attracting MONSOON almost 6-10 months a year and the entire land was full of green forest, with thousands of unique species of plants growing diversifying and simultaneously, protecting themselves from giant herbivores (bovines, reptiles etc) by creating spicy flavour in their leaves and stems, to make it taste bad.
      .
      There are minor exceptions like
      Dried pomegranate seeds originate from middle East and Africa.
      Tamarind originate from African continent.
      Bay leaf originate from Mediterranean countries.
      .
      Download GOOGLE EARTH and watch carefully....beyond Australia on it's EAST if you watch carefully, you can see a giant continent below the sea. Today few islands are left with mainland under the sea.
      .
      Also see below Australia. New Zealand is sitting on another huge continent, most of it now under sea due to the rising sea levels.
      .
      Same way is Hawaii islands🏝🏝🏝.

Cacao which Mexico is famous for worldwide is that we introduced chocolate to the world. Cacao is technically a fruit. Guanabana (Soursop) is also native to here as well across the Americas but once again it is cultivated world wide. Sapodilla (chikoo) also native to México. There are also less known fruits like Mamey, Sapote, Nanche, Jicama, Huaya, Tuna, Rambutan etc. And most of the fruits come from tropical America and Asia it seems.
