Up to now, the Ben Tre Green Skin Pomelo Cooperative has been established and continuously developing for nearly 10 years; this is not merely the journey of an organization or its people, but a deeply meaningful path that has been contributing to the shared destiny of Ben Tre's Green Skin pomelo on the specialty map. The journey of the green skin pomelo is a vivid testament, reflecting a long-term evolutionary process from an unnamed mutant seedling in a humble home garden into an invaluable intellectual property and a commercial resource of national stature. That glorious journey bears the profound imprints of pioneering individuals, the miraculous intervention of agronomic science, and an exquisitely refined process of natural selection.
