Field management of Atractylodes lancea

We may not hear much about atractylodes rhizome, but it is widely used in various industries in our country. Rhizome now has a good prospect in China, and its market price is also ideal. Therefore, the planting area is constantly expanding, and there are many novices who want to start planting. However, it is important to do a good job of management when planting. So Xiaobian brought you the key points of field management of atractylodes rhizome today. Let's take a look together!

1. Intertillage and weeding

Intertillage weeding is an indispensable management task when planting atractylodes rhizome. Especially in the seedling stage, if no timely weeding, then the nutrients needed for the growth of atractylodes seedlings will be taken away by weeds, resulting in serious impact on seedling growth. After transplanting, the seedlings should also be cultivated once to improve the permeability of soil, promote the nutrient absorption of atractylodes rhizome, and meet the nutrient requirements of atractylodes rhizome growth.

2. Timely topdressing

Rhizoma atractylodes has a large demand for nutrients, so it should be top-dressed at least three times during the whole growth period of Rhizoma atractylodes. It takes place in May, June, August, etc. Proper soil cultivation should be paid attention to after fertilizer application to improve lodging resistance of atractylodes rhizome. The fertilizer for each topdressing is mainly decomposed farm manure, supplemented by compound fertilizer. When applying fertilizer, the amount of fertilizer should be controlled according to the planting area, and excessive fertilizer should not be applied, otherwise it is easy to cause fertilizer damage, which will affect the growth of atractylodes rhizome instead.

3. Water management

Water is very important for the growth of atractylodes rhizome, if there is water shortage and drought phenomenon. Rhizome plants withered and weak, yield decreased. Therefore, we should water regularly to keep the soil moist and meet the water needs of atractylodes rhizome growth. Regularly observe the moisture content of the soil and water it in time if drought is found. However, the water should not be too much. If there is ponding or rainy season, it should also be drained in time to prevent rotten roots and dead seedlings and reduce yield and quality.

4. Remove buds in time

The budding period of atractylodes rhizome is generally around July every year, and it enters the budding period of atractylodes rhizome every year. If the planting purpose is to rootstock, then it is necessary to remove the buds in time, because flowering also requires a lot of nutrients. Timely bud removal can concentrate nutrients in underground parts, improve the growth of underground rhizomes and increase yield. If the main ornamental words, then you can not remove the bud, otherwise it will reduce its ornamental value.

5, pest control

Pest control work is also very important, directly related to the yield of atractylodes rhizome. Common diseases and insect pests of atractylodes rhizome include root rot, aphid, etc. We should carry out symptomatic prevention and control according to specific diseases and insect pests. Strengthen management, give priority to prevention, control irrigation and drainage. Often observe the growth of atractylodes rhizome, found that there are diseased plants to be removed in time. Then find out the cause and make corresponding measures to avoid the spread of the disease and expand the affected area.

The above is a brief introduction to field management of atractylodes rhizome. Field management of atractylodes rhizome is very important, it can't be carried out blindly, we should create a good growth environment for atractylodes rhizome. Today's introduction is here, this article is for reference only, I hope to be able to help everyone!
