Goji, Goji Berry, or wolfberry is the fruit of either the name of Lycium or barbarum , two closely related species of boxthorn in the nightshade family, Solanaceae.
The majority of commercially produced goji comes from Ningxia and Xinjiang in Northwestern China, where they are grown on plantations totaling 200,000 acres. In Zhongning County, Ningxia, wolfberry plantations typically range between 40 and 400 hectares in area. Ningxia goji has been cultivated along the fertile floodplains of the Yellow River for more than 700 years and have earned a reputation throughout Asia for premium quality sometimes described commercially as "red diamonds". Government releases of annual wolfberry production, premium fruit grades, and export are based on yields from Ningxia, the region recognized with-
· the largest annual harvest in China, accounting for 45% of the nation's total yield of wolfberries (50,000 tons, 2013)
· formation of an industrial association of growers, processors, marketers, and scholars of wolfberry cultivation to promote the berry's commercial and export potential
· the nation's only source of superior grade wolfberries used by practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine.
