Distribution of blueberry producing area

Blueberry is a blue berry, belonging to the perennial shrub small berry fruit tree of Vaccinium genus Ericaceae. Its origin is North America. Because the fruit is blue, it is called blueberry. The fruit is rich in nutrients. It has the effects of preventing brain nerve aging, protecting eyesight, strengthening heart, anti-cancer, softening blood vessels, enhancing human immunity, etc. Let's take a look at the distribution of blueberry origin!

Distribution of Blueberries

Blueberry is distributed all over the world, mainly distributed in warm and sunny areas, such as Korea, Japan, Mongolia, Russia, Europe, North America and Heilongjiang, Inner Mongolia and Changbai Mountain areas of Jilin in the mainland of China. It grows in areas with an altitude of 900 meters to 2, 300 meters. It is mostly found in coniferous forest, peat swamp, mountain tundra and pasture. It is also an important part of heather shrub.

Blueberry is mainly produced in Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Jilin and other regions in China. Many wild blueberry species such as Vaccinium uliginosum (commonly known as uliginosum and persimmon) and Vaccinium bilberry grow naturally in Changbai Mountain and Daxing 'anling Mountains in Northeast China.

Blueberry growing environment

There are three kinds of blueberry cultivation, namely, high bush blueberry, short bush blueberry and rabbit eye blueberry, among which high bush blueberry is divided into north high bush blueberry, south high bush blueberry and half high bush blueberry. Short bush blueberries and half bush blueberries are suitable for planting in temperate cold regions, north tall bush blueberries and some half bush blueberries are suitable for planting in warm temperate regions, rabbit eye blueberries and south tall bush blueberries are suitable for planting in subtropical regions.

Blueberry cultivation in China started late, mainly from the north high, semi-high cluster, short cluster, and rabbit-eye blueberries, geographical dispersion, planting area of about 20000 mu by the spring of 2009, mainly distributed in Shandong, Jilin, Liaoning, Jiangsu, Guizhou, Yunnan, etc., among which Shandong Province industrialized planting area is the largest.

Blueberry development process

1. Development history: Blueberry cultivation in China started relatively late, mainly from north high, semi-high cluster, short cluster, and rabbit-eye blueberry. Geographical dispersion, planting area as of spring 2009 about 20000 mu, mainly distributed in Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Jiangsu and so on. Among them, Liaoning Province has the largest industrialized planting area.

2, Oceania: 1950 began to introduce blueberry did not succeed, to 1970 to introduce seeds and screening varieties, to the late 1970s to introduce seedlings and began cultivation, to 1990, the area reached 1700 hectares, mainly concentrated in the eastern coastal areas, mainly high-bush blueberry and rabbit eye blueberry, high-bush blueberry in the main cultivated varieties are "Blue Feng", followed by "Spartan" and "Sharp Blue". Australia has made great achievements in cross breeding on the basis of introduction, breeding excellent varieties adapted to its own climate, these varieties gradually replace the introduced varieties. Productively, the geographical location of the southern hemisphere is utilized for production, fresh fruits are supplied in winter in the northern hemisphere, and fresh fruits are exported to North America and Europe.
