The latest planting scam of Dendrobium candidum

As a rare medicinal material, Dendrobium candidum has been listed as high-grade grass like Ganoderma lucidum, Ginseng and Cordyceps sinensis. Wild Dendrobium candidum is a national key protected plant, which is tonified in Qing Dynasty and clear in Buzhong, which is superior to other Chinese herbal medicine. It has become the "darling" of consumers in the market, and at the same time, it has given rise to a lot of planting scams. Let's take a look at how to prevent fraud in planting Dendrobium candidum.

Dendrobium candidum planting scam

Dendrobium candidum is on the verge of extinction because of its extremely low fecundity and viability, coupled with the frenzied felling of people with lust for profit, which is superior to other Chinese herbal medicines and has become the "darling" of market consumers. Seeing this opportunity, some mercenary people are ready to move, using "sweet words" and the so-called "absolutely authentic Dendrobium candidum" and "definitely helping you get rich" to deceive consumers and growers, thus causing consumers and growers to have "true and false fear". At the same time, some unscrupulous businesses, usually newly established leather bag companies, use high-priced bag recycling as bait to tempt growers to join in order to resell seedlings at high prices.

How to prevent deception of Dendrobium candidum

1, look at the technical strength: any valuable planting, how big the prospect is, if it can not survive or the yield is very low is futile.

2. Look at the scale and strength: factory buildings, training workshops, specialty stores, planting bases, etc., are the embodiment of the real enterprise and block entity.

3, look at the actual products: Dendrobium candidum planting enterprises generally sell Dendrobium, Fengdou and other health products at the same time, to see whether the sales ability is real.

4. look at the business license: look at the date of the license, whether the company is newly opened, whether it is linked to other manufacturers, and whether the official seal is the same subject as the planting base and the pharmaceutical factory.

5. On-the-spot investigation: growers with larger scale must make on-the-spot visits and inquire about the reputation of the enterprises.

6. Don't believe in bag recycling: bag recycling is indeed attractive to valuable traditional Chinese medicine growers such as Dendrobium candidum, but even if it is a uniform variety of fresh strips of Dendrobium candidum, the purchase price fluctuates every year. Those who dare to sign a 5-year planting and recycling contract with extremely high guaranteed prices do not have high credibility.

Planting risk of Dendrobium candidum

The main results are as follows: 1. Planting is difficult: although after more than 10 years of research and exploration, the artificial planting technology of Dendrobium is basically mature. However, it is still very difficult for ordinary people to master skilled planting technology in the short term. At present, planting technology varies from place to place, product quality and benefits are also very different, and planting failures also occur from time to time.

2. High investment risk: according to the actual effective planting area of 400 square meters per mu of intensive planting in the greenhouse, 30-50, 000 seedlings per mu are needed. According to the current calculation of 2.5 yuan per mu, the investment of seedlings is more than 80, 000, plus the cost of facilities such as the greenhouse. And 2 years of manual management fees, investment per mu exceeds 100000 yuan, once planting failure, heavy losses, this kind of example also appears many times.

4. Long production cycle: it takes about 15 months for seedlings to be domesticated from tissue culture to bottle seedlings. In Dehong and other places with relatively high temperature in Yunnan, it takes 15 to 18 months to harvest, and 18 to 30 months in some areas with low temperature.

5. It is difficult to guarantee the quality: there are as many as 76 varieties of Dendrobium in China, and only Dendrobium candidum has several seedlings with different qualities, such as hybrids, species of origin, soft-footed species, hard-footed species and so on, which are difficult for general professionals to distinguish. In addition, factors such as substrate selection, planting pattern, fertilization and pest control will affect the quality of Dendrobium. If you do not master the technology, the quality of the planted products is not good, agricultural residues, heavy metals and other exceeding the standard, it is generally difficult to sell.

6. authentic principle: they are all Dendrobium, and their quality varies greatly due to different planting places. In the initial stage of the current industry, consumers do not pay too much attention to the place of origin, with the expansion of the market, the principle of authenticity will be valued, some unsuitable places to rely on greenhouse artificial planting of Dendrobium will lose the market due to quality and other reasons.

7, the market is unstable: due to the participation of enterprises in Zhejiang, Guangdong and other places, the one-time planting area is large, coupled with the influence of greenhouse planting quality, authentic and other factors, the market of Dendrobium candidum is unstable, and the later benefit is difficult to predict.

Conclusion: in order to avoid falling into the fraud of Dendrobium candidum planting, it is necessary to open your eyes, in addition to a detailed understanding of the company's brand, the size of the company, production management technology, seedling quality of Dendrobium candidum, after-sales service, technical support and other aspects should also be strictly checked.
