(Taiwan Business Daily News) the tall tree "Hongqi Organic Leisure Farm" has not only planted pineapples, bananas, rice and black beans, but also planted red dragon fruit in more than one-third of the remote land since last year. The red dragon fruit of the big red strain is during the fruit harvest period. The ground is planted with four-petal purslane, commonly known as small pig mother grass, to cover the surface, which is as relaxed as a grass carpet, owner Xu Zherong said. Because the organic field is not sprinkled with pesticides, even the grass grows very beautiful. Maintain the environment and ecology, the fruit is sweet and safer.

Hsu Zhe-jung, who studied economics in Canada, returned to Taiwan six years ago to take over the "Hongqi Farm" run by his father Xu Tianlai. The most famous farm is pineapple. All kinds of varieties are produced every year, and the famous "Yadaomi" is often sold out of stock. A year ago, Xu Zherong heard from a friend that there was room for the development of red dragon fruit in the past few years, so last year he changed one third of the pineapple fields to red dragon fruit.

Xu Zhe-jung says that experts in red dragon fruit cultivation have adopted the big red seed, which does not require artificial pollination. Last year, the species blossomed and bear fruit one after another in May this year. In order to distinguish the maturity of fruit at different flowering stages, they are distinguished by bagging of different natures. The first is a black net, the second is a paper bag, and the third is a special bagging. Because the production date can be until October, each harvest will be distinguished by bagging and will not be confused.

Hsu Zhe-jung said that it is not difficult to grow red dragon fruit, and he attaches importance to fertilizer management. He planted four-petal purslane on the ground. This kind of grass is extremely shady and highly contagious, and it is covered on the surface. Apart from maintaining fertility and moisture, it is not easy to evaporate, but it is also well ventilated. From a distance, it looks like a carpet.

The key to growing red dragon fruit is pruning. Red dragon fruit grows quickly, and unnecessary lateral buds and small fruits have to be cut off. There is only one fruit left in a red dragon fruit. He estimates that only 5,000 will be harvested this year, each of which is very large and sweet, with a single seed of about one jin.

At present, the market price is about 100 yuan per catty, and some people have begun to order it. Xu Zhe-jung welcomes consumers who love to eat red dragon fruit to taste organic, sweeter, healthier and safer.
