This kind of weed is one of the four great Huai medicines, which was once an ancient tribute and now becomes a cash cow for 50 jin.

China is vast in land and abundant in resources, and all kinds of wild resources are also quite rich. take weeds as an example, there are thousands of weeds in our country, especially in the rural areas, but although many weeds are common, many people do not know their role. Although some weeds are ordinary, they are deeply loved by farmers. Below, the author introduces such a weed, which seems to be ordinary, but it is indeed a kind of folk treasure. And now it has become a "cash cow" for many peasant friends.

At noon, the author went back to the old village with his family. at the foot of the mountain near the old village, the author saw a strange piece of farmland. The reason why this farmland is unique is that the crops planted by this farmer's friends are not ordinary crops. but a common weed in the countryside, this weed is "Rehmannia".

Speaking of Rehmannia glutinosa, many peasant friends must be familiar with it. This kind of weed is a common weed in the countryside. Although it is very common, it is deeply loved by peasant friends.

Rehmannia glutinosa is a kind of Chinese herbal medicine with a long history in China. Since the Zhou Dynasty, it has been named as one of the "four Huai medicines", and the four Huai medicines have been listed as royal tribute in the Tang and Song dynasties. Rehmannia glutinosa was also introduced into European countries through the Silk Road, and through Zheng he's voyages to the West in Southeast Asia and Africa in the Ming Dynasty, so it also has a high reputation abroad. Rehmannia glutinosa is also known as "Chinese medicine" by overseas people, and you can imagine how popular it is.

So since Rehmannia glutinosa is loved by our peasant friends as well as by overseas people, what is its function?

Rehmannia glutinosa has edible and medicinal value, and the edible value of Rehmannia glutinosa has a history of thousands of years in our country. As early as a thousand years ago, people in ancient times used Rehmannia glutinosa as food to pickle, brew wine, make tea and cook porridge.

The medicinal value of Rehmannia glutinosa is higher. The root of Rehmannia glutinosa can be used as medicine, and its taste is cool. It has the effects of nourishing yin and kidney, nourishing blood and tonifying blood, cooling blood. It can be used to treat liver and kidney yin deficiency, sore waist and knees, bone steaming heat, night sweat semen, internal heat and thirst, blood deficiency and yellowing, palpitation, irregular menstruation, bleeding, vertigo, tinnitus, hair and other symptoms.

The author remembers that in A Dream of Red Mansions, there is a plot in which Baoyu changed the prescription for Qingwen to add Rehmannia glutinosa. It can be seen that Rehmannia glutinosa was a popular folk medicine in ancient times.

It is precisely because of these functions that Rehmannia glutinosa is very popular at home and abroad, and according to the data consulted by the author, Rehmannia glutinosa has also become one of the important foreign exchange earning products in our country, and the products are exported to Hong Kong, Macao, Southeast Asia, Japan and other countries. According to records, Rehmannia glutinosa is now sold abroad for about 50 to 100 yuan per jin, which makes it a cash cow for many farmers.

Just like the farmer friend I met in the old village, this is the case. He has specially planted several mu of Rehmannia glutinosa. According to this farmer friend, as long as the situation of Rehmannia glutinosa is better, the annual income per mu can generally reach tens of thousands of yuan. However, it will also suffer losses in the event of disasters.

It seems that although Rehmannia glutinosa has become a cash cow for farmers, there are still risks.
