Chestnut planting: how to harvest chestnut?

How to harvest Chinese chestnut? When is the chestnut usually harvested? What are the main harvesting methods? Please introduce that Chinese chestnut generally matures from September to October. There are generally three harvesting methods for reference: chestnut harvest: chestnut bract method is called chestnut bract method. The chestnut bract method should strictly control the harvest time and harvest at the right time. The best harvest time is that when the chestnut bud cracks up to 50%, it can be harvested at one time. This method has the advantages of centralized harvest period, high speed and convenient management and sales. Chestnut harvesting: chestnut picking method in order to ensure the quality of chestnut fruit, chestnut picking method should be advocated. When the nut is fully ripe, the chestnut bud cracks, the nut or chestnut bud falls off, and the fruit is picked up every morning and evening. The nuts that fall to the ground, with full grains and good quality, are suitable for storage and transportation. Chestnut harvesting method 3: chestnut picking method is often used in combination with chestnut bract method in production, that is, chestnut picking method is used when some chestnut seeds fall off 2-3 days before harvest, and when 50% chestnut buds are cracked, they are harvested at one time or in batches. Matters needing attention in chestnut harvest: if the chestnut is harvested early in the right time, the material accumulation of chestnut fruit is insufficient, the water content is large, the fruit flavor is poor, and it is not resistant to storage, so it should be harvested when more than half of the chestnut canopy is cracked. In order to reduce the loss, the fallen fruit should be picked up in time every day during the harvest period to avoid air drying. In the case of more water loss, the sugar content in the fruit will be increased, and the life activity will be restricted, which will aggravate the loss of rotten fruit, and the longer the time of air drying, the greater the loss, so it should be stored in time after harvest to prevent water loss and cause the loss of rotten fruit.
