Huafeng sharp pepper

Guangdong Province is a major pepper growing province, with an annual pepper planting area of about 1.5 million mu. However, there are few excellent pepper varieties bred by the scientific research department of Guangdong Province, and most of the pepper varieties are introduced from other provinces, while the pepper varieties introduced from other provinces generally have some problems, such as poor disease resistance, poor storage and transportation and so on. it has seriously affected the economic benefits of growers and vegetable merchants. In order to solve this problem, after years of efforts, the seed and Seedling Center of South China Agricultural University finally bred a new pepper variety-Huafeng sharp pepper with high disease resistance, high yield, beautiful fruit shape and resistance to storage and transportation.
