The latest seed price and planting method of Niu Dai

Niu Dali, also known as pig's foot, golden bell root, mountain lotus root, etc., is a vine belonging to the genus of Leguminosae. It is distributed in Fujian, Hunan, Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan and other places in China. It is born in shrubs, sparse forests and wilderness. Its roots are used as medicine to tonify deficiency and moisten lung, strengthen muscles and activate activities. Let's take a look at the seed price and planting method of Niu Dali together!

How much is a pound of cattle seed?

The price of cattle seed is about 150~180 yuan per catty, but the price varies greatly due to the quality, variety, origin and market of seed. At present, cattle Dali has not been industrialized in our country, many growers mistakenly think that once planted, they can harvest successfully, but they do not know that cattle Dali has many different germplasm sources, different cattle Dali provenances have certain differences in morphological characteristics and yield, so the selection of high-yield varieties with excellent quality can succeed in harvest, otherwise it may fail, so it can be said that provenance determines the success or failure of planting.

The method of sowing cattle.

1, seed collection: cattle Dali seeds mature in the middle of October every year, when the color of the fruit pods are yellow but not cracked under the circumstances of its harvest, and then dry, remove the fruit pods, remove the bad seeds can be.

2, germination treatment: cattle Dali seeds placed in warm water at 55℃ for 10~15 minutes, take out and soak for about 7 hours, after the seeds fully absorb water, add appropriate amount of fine sand and stir evenly, mix well and then sprinkle a layer of fine sand, after the seeds are white, you can sow.

3. Weeding and insecticide: Before sowing cattle, sprinkle 1.8% avermectin emulsifiable concentrate 500ml, glyphosate 80ml and 25kg fine sand mixture to block weeding and insecticide, apply base fertilizer after 3 days, and then divide the ploughing.

4. Sowing method: When cattle are sown, the row spacing is 25 cm, the trench dug should not be too deep, and after the seeds are sown, a thin layer of sieved soil should be covered on the seeds. The sowing amount per mu is about 0.6 kg, and the density is 40 ~ 60,000 plants.

5, after sowing management: cattle vigorously after sowing timely watering fertilization, especially just after sowing to keep the seed moisture is sufficient, fertilizer concentration should not be too high, to prevent the seed burn, about 13 days after sowing emergence.

How to grow cattle

1. Transplanting management: The planting density of cattle is about 300~500 plants/mu. The planting time should be selected when the sunlight is weak in the afternoon. It is best to take soil lumps into the holes. The planting depth should be 1 cm or level with the soil lumps. After planting, irrigate with water.

2. Timely weeding: cattle grow slowly in the early stage of planting. Weeds between ridges can be removed manually or by spraying herbicides. When spraying herbicides, pay attention to spraying carefully under the condition of static wind to prevent herbicides from floating to cattle plants.

3. Fertilizer and water management: Niu Dali is drought-tolerant and waterlogging tolerant. After about one month after planting, branches can be taken out and topdressing can be started. 2 catties of compound fertilizer per mu shall be added with 400 catties of water for single plant irrigation. The total topdressing amount per mu shall be 40 catties about 3 months after planting. After that, fertilization shall be conducted once every October.

4. Pruning and pruning: The plants not used for reproduction of Niu Dali should be thinned and cut off strong branches, and the plants reserved for reproduction should be sprayed with 30kg of water in a bottle of Yuhualing No.2. After continuous spraying for 2~3 times, the plants planted in March ~ April can enter flowering period in June ~ September.

5. Thinning flowers and promoting fruits: spray Yuhualing No.2 once before flowering to promote flowering and pod setting, and promote a large amount of nutrients to supply underground rhizome growth intensively. Spray Yuhualing No.5 after autumn to promote rapid rooting and continuous expansion of Niu Dali.

6. Disease and pest control: Leaf spot disease of cattle can be controlled by spraying 600 times solution of 50% carbendazim WP +80% mancozeb, and lepidopteran pests can be controlled by 1000 times solution of 5% abamectin EC, 5% abamectin chlorpyrifos granules or 2.5% abamectin flumuron EC.

7. Harvesting and processing: cattle should be harvested when the soil is dry in autumn and winter. It can be harvested manually after deep ploughing by plowing machine. If there is no condition, it can be stored in cold storage at 0~5℃ for half a month after harvesting. It can also be sliced and dried, and fresh slices can be vacuum packed.
