World’s Most Expensive Cherry - Amazing Japan Agriculture Technology Farm - Best Cherry Harvest

Sato Nishiki variety cherries are usually sold in 300 gram boxes containing around 40-50 cherries at ¥40,000 a throw( 350$), making them among some of the most expensive fruit in the world. Despite the high prices farmer in Yamagata reports he has already shipped 100 packs. Expensive fruit is often given as gifts to impress superiors in Japanese business circles, while fruit prices in general remain 50% above those in the west. Joining the ranks of the £500 (US$942) melon, a Japanese farmer from the now snow-buried north of Japan has begun selling the season’s first cherries at ¥1000 (US$9.7) per cherry.
