The land in the center of the city can be described as an inch of land, and it is definitely not a good idea to be used for agricultural development. However, on January 13, a reporter from the South Metropolis Daily saw in the Taihe Park villa area of Zhengyi Road in Haikou that this beautiful three-story villa was not used for living, but was converted by its "tuhao" owner into a house for planting Dendrobium candidum. The roof and villa garden are all covered with Dendrobium candidum, and a floor is specially used as a laboratory.

According to Wang Fenghe, the owner of the villa, he came from Beijing and came to Haikou to do rosewood business in his early years and had some savings. Now converted into Dendrobium candidum planting base of the villa, covers an area of more than 140m2, the market price of about 4 million, is its early purchase in Haikou. In order to convert it into a planting base, the decoration cost more than 1 million. Last year, Wang Fenghe came up with the idea of planting Dendrobium candidum after chatting with a friend with diabetes who took fresh Dendrobium candidum for a long time and greatly relieved its complications.

On the first two occasions, due to the lack of technical mastery, the seedlings introduced by Wang Fenghe did not achieve large-scale production and lost hundreds of thousands of dollars at a time. Later, by hiring expert guidance from Hainan University, the planting was successful. Since Dendrobium candidum now sells for about 1000 yuan per kilogram in Hainan, and many people have not really seen it, they grow it in the urban area, so it is convenient for people to visit and understand the idea of Dendrobium candidum. Therefore, the villa bought is converted into a planting base of Dendrobium candidum. At present, Wang Fenghe has not only this villa Dendrobium candidum planting base in Hainan, but also rented more than 10 mu of land in Baoting, ready to plant a large area in Baoting.

According to Liu Guomin, a professor at the School of Agriculture of Hainan University, the current price of Dendrobium candidum in Hainan is about 1,000 yuan per kilogram. According to its investigation of the industry, the total planting area of the island is about 300 mu, mainly distributed in Baoting and Wuzhishan area. Dendrobium candidum has a high output value per mu. If the management is reasonable, about 400 kg of fresh forage can be produced per mu of Dendrobium candidum. Dendrobium candidum is an excellent health herb and one of the "nine life-saving fairy herbs" in traditional Chinese medicine. Dendrobium candidum is rich in polysaccharides, which can not only enhance immune function, but also anti-aging. It is called "light weight" holy medicine in Shennong Materia Medica.

Liu said that Wang Fenghe's launch of a planting base in the urban area will allow more people to come into contact with and understand Dendrobium candidum, which will not only help consumers really understand the characteristics of Dendrobium candidum, but also establish a promotion window for Dendrobium candidum. This practice is commendable. (reporter Zhang Heng)
