Factors reducing the benefit of Citrus planting

Citrus is a very common fruit in China. Each variety has a certain demand in our country, and the planting area of citrus is also very large. However, in recent years, the current situation of citrus cultivation is not very ideal. Because the benefit of citrus planting is declining, many people give up citrus planting. So what is the reason for reducing the efficiency of citrus cultivation? Let's take a look at it with the editor.

1. The planting area is expanded.

The planting benefit of citrus in the past few years is still very good. As a result, it attracts a lot of people to grow on a large scale, although citrus has the disease of Huanglong disease. But still can not stop the pace of planting, and in some old planting areas due to the weakening of trees, but also continue to expand the planting area. As a result, production continues to rise, while the market demand for oranges cannot keep pace with the increase in production. Therefore, the market competitiveness will gradually increase, and the planting efficiency of some planting with lower quality will naturally decline.

2. The price of pesticides and fertilizers has risen.

Now people have higher and higher requirements for food, so in order to ensure the safety of pesticides and fertilizers, the production cost is getting higher and higher. So its market price is getting higher and higher. Now some agrochemical enterprises that do not meet the national standards have gradually gone bankrupt. And the raw material prices of agrochemical products are also on the rise. Coupled with the reduction of citrus market price, the decline of planting efficiency is inevitable.

3. Labor cost

If the planting area is large, then workers must be hired when planting. At present, the economic development of our country is getting better and better, and wages are rising very fast. Therefore, when hiring workers, labor cost is also the most important problem affecting planting efficiency. With the rise of wages, citrus prices continue to decline, and part of the labor force is inefficient people such as old people and women, so their planting efficiency will of course be greatly affected.

4. Other planting costs

The decrease of citrus planting benefit is mainly due to the increase of planting cost. In addition to the above two kinds of planting costs, there are various planting costs such as land lease, management and so on. Now the rental cost of land is very high, and it is not very good soil. Therefore, if the land is leased to grow oranges, then the planting efficiency will be greatly affected. In addition, there are watering, weeding and other planting management costs, which will affect the efficiency of citrus planting.

5. Improper planting

It is necessary to master mature planting techniques when growing oranges. If improper planting leads to citrus diseases and insect pests, falling flowers and fruits and other phenomena, it will reduce the citrus yield and lead to the lack of citrus planting benefits. And poor management will not only reduce the yield, but also affect the quality, causing great harm to the cultivation of citrus. Finally, it is necessary to have a stable sales channel, if the sales channel is unstable, no matter how good your quality and output are, the planting efficiency will not be too high.

The above is a brief introduction to the factors that reduce the efficiency of citrus planting. The main factor affecting the efficiency of planting is cost, so we should pay more attention to it. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
