0. Executive Summary
Judgment axis | Key judgment |
| Item Identity | A fruit and vegetable belonging to the Cucurbitaceae family and the Cucumis melo series. Although botanically very closely related to the melon, it is managed as a separate product crop in the domestic Korean melon industry. |
| Key role | A leading facility-based fruit and vegetable business connecting fresh produce, sorted fruit, gift sets, online sales, school meals, dining out, processing, and export. |
| Harvesting principle | Consider variety, fruit set, skin color, aroma, ripeness, sugar content, fruit firmness, distribution distance, and export conditions together. |
| Product separation | Unripe fruit, marketable fresh fruit, sorted fruit, small fruit, large fruit, raw materials for processing, sliced fruit, juice, puree, and fruit for export are managed as separate products. |
| Separation of similar items | Acknowledging the possibility of overlap with the previous item, Melon, at the Species level, separate into Variety Group, Appearance, Cultivation, Distribution, and Buyer Spec. |
| Domestic statistics | KOSIS manages Korean melon as a crop subject to independent administrative surveys for fruit and vegetable production. The 2025 production figures will be entered after verifying the latest official raw data in accordance with the publication schedule. |
| Concentration in mountainous areas | Based on official announcements from Gyeongsangbuk-do, Seongju accounts for 74% of the national Korean melon production in 2024. |
| Supply and demand risk | Greenhouse cultivation: Energy, weather, water, pollination, pests and diseases, fruit cracking, fermentation, overripening, cold damage, concentration of production areas, price fluctuations |
| Operating Principles | Connect Variety–Facility–Fruit Setting–Harvest–Sorting–Storage–Buyer RFQ to Fruit Lot |
| Final goal | Connecting Korean melons from producers and local organizations with actual distribution, processing, and export buyer specifications, and feeding back evaluation and repurchase results into the next growing season. |
