China may be the largest watermelon producer in the world, but here in this area, this Chiayi farmer has claimed his

The average yellow crimson watermelon weighs around 10 catties, which is equivalent to about 6 kilograms, but this man is making others envy,

because under his care, the watermelons weigh around 12 kilograms each.

But what's making him extremely proud this year is this melon right here, which is regarded as the largest watermelon ever grown by him, who has been in the business for 40 years.

The fruit is three times as big as a normal melon, larger and heavier than this child.

Measuring at 32 catties, which is around 19.2 kilograms, he said that it's probably because the weather is more suitable this year for harvest, and this is no doubt the best gift from god.
