It is estimated that production ongoes on a 10 percent larger area of about 5600 hectares this year. Almost half of the crop is produced in Békés county, in Medgyesegyháza and its surroundings. Significant production can be found also in Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg and Baranya counties.
The Hungarian melon has a great aroma and is a juicy fruit.
