How long does it take from planting to harvesting highland barley? What is the planting time and technology?

Rice is the staple food in the southern region of China, noodles is the staple food in the northern region, while Xizang and Qinghai in the western and northwest regions are mainly highland barley. How long does it take from planting to harvesting highland barley? What is the planting time and technology?

I. the basic situation of highland barley

1. Distribution range of highland barley

Highland barley is a cereal crop that can grow in plateau areas, also known as naked barley, yuan barley and rice barley. It is distributed in Xizang, Qinghai, Sichuan and Yunnan. The main producing areas include Xizang Lianxiang (previous Panchen Lama tribute highland barley base), Nimu (previous Dalai tribute highland barley base), Pulan (Guge dynasty tribute highland barley base), Zedang (Tubo dynasty tribute highland barley base), Gangba (Himalayan rare species highland barley base).

two。 The value of highland barley

Highland barley is rich in protein, fat, vitamins and trace elements, which has a good health care effect, such as clearing bowels, clearing toxins, improving body defense ability, regulating circadian rhythm and preventing cardiovascular diseases. Zanba and highland barley wine made by highland barley are not only the traditional food of Tibetan people, but also important food for foreign guests.

3. Price of highland barley

The price of highland barley has a certain relationship with the origin, quality and purchase quantity. For example, the price of white highland barley in Xinjiang is 3300 yuan / ton, the price of rice treated by Xizang is 4 yuan / jin, the price of white highland barley in Qinghai is 1.5 yuan / jin, and the price of blue highland barley in Gansu is 6.8 yuan / jin.

Second, how long does it take from planting to harvesting highland barley?

Highland barley generally takes 5-6 months from planting to harvesting. Timely planting of highland barley is generally based on temperature, and it is the principle that seedlings form strong seedlings before and after overwintering. It is not suitable to be too early and too late. It is one of the keys to achieve complete and strong seedlings.

Third, what is the planting time and technology of highland barley?

Correctly mastering the planting time and technology of highland barley is the key factor to help increase production, so it is sorted out as follows:

1. Planting time of highland barley

Generally, the sowing period of highland barley planting in Shangjiang should be concentrated from late November to early December (before and after the Beginning of Winter); sowing in mid-March in semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral areas (2600-3000 meters above sea level), and sowing in grassland pastoral areas (3000-3400 meters above sea level) in early April.

two。 Planting technology of highland barley

The main results are as follows: (1) before sowing highland barley seeds, the shallow tillage mode should be adopted, combined with fertilization management, and a certain amount of base fertilizer should be applied after the soil is fine and free of weeds.

(2) to select the varieties with good characters, the varieties should be used widely and can adapt to the areas with bad climate. The seeds should be dried before formal sowing, and the depth of sowing should be kept at about 5 centimeters.

(3) when the highland barley seedlings are heading, there is no need to apply nitrogen fertilizer at each growth stage; from the heading stage to the filling stage, potassium dihydrogen phosphate and water can be fully stirred and sprayed.

(4) during the growth process of planting lotus root highland barley, traditional Chinese medicine should pay attention to the invasion of diseases and insect pests such as small tigers and aphids, it is best to prevent them in advance, and the diseases should be prevented and controlled in time.

In addition, because the lodging resistance of highland barley is relatively weak, so it is necessary to select good varieties, reasonable planning of planting density, fertilization and irrigation to ensure yield and quality, mature highland barley should also be harvested in time.
