It is not very clear where its origins are, for some it is Africa, or India or Afghanistan and China. But the truth is that there is evidence that Ancient Egypt existed already in 2,400 BC. It was also consumed by the Romans in the 3rd century and by Muslims. In Spain, it was introduced by the Arabs. In France, it was not consumed until the 16th century. Columbus was the one who introduced it to America on one of his voyages.
The Melon is a herbaceous, climbing plant of the Cucurbitaceae family. It requires tropical, dry climates, rich in organic matter, loose and well-drained soils, so in Europe melons are imported from countries with tropical climates such as Brazil, Costa Rica, Israel, Morocco, Honduras, Ecuador, etc.
Spain is the main European country in melon production, followed by the Netherlands and France. The Spanish regions where melons are grown are: Almería, Murcia, Valencia, Castellón, Cuenca, Ciudad Real, Madrid, Elche (Alicante).
