Definition
成熟期 is a noun meaning 'mature period' or 'maturity stage' — the phase when something has fully developed. It's used in agriculture (crops reaching harvest readiness), business (industry maturity), and personal development (adulthood). The word is a compound of 成熟 (mature) and 期 (period), so it always refers to a time span, not a single point.
