Where are chestnuts grown in abundance?

Chestnut is a plant that likes a warm environment. Generally, it is suitable for growing in an ambient temperature of about 15℃. When planting, the time also needs to be adapted to local conditions, that is, it should be determined according to the temperature.

The temperature cannot be too cold, otherwise it will affect the survival rate of the chestnut tree and increase the difficulty of chestnut tree management.
