Is the planting of Dendrobium candidum a hoax? Can you make money?

Dendrobium candidum is a valuable medicinal plant, which is listed as high-grade grass like Ganoderma lucidum, Ginseng and Cordyceps sinensis. Dendrobium candidum has become the darling of the market in recent years, but some people say that planting Dendrobium candidum is a hoax, so is it a scam? Can you make money?

Is the planting of Dendrobium candidum a hoax?

Dendrobium candidum is on the verge of extinction because of its extremely low fecundity and viability, coupled with the frenzied felling of people with lust for profit, which is superior to other Chinese herbal medicines and has become the "darling" of market consumers. Seeing this opportunity, some mercenary people are ready to move, using "sweet words" and the so-called "absolutely authentic Dendrobium candidum" and "definitely helping you get rich" to deceive consumers and growers, thus causing consumers and growers to have "true and false fear". At the same time, some unscrupulous businesses, usually newly established leather bag companies, use high-priced bag recycling as bait to tempt growers to join in order to resell seedlings at high prices.

Second, how to prevent deception of Dendrobium candidum?

1, look at the technical strength: any valuable planting, how big the prospect is, if it can not survive or the yield is very low is futile.

2. Look at the scale and strength: factory buildings, training workshops, specialty stores, planting bases, etc., are the embodiment of the real enterprise and block entity.

3, look at the actual products: Dendrobium candidum planting enterprises generally sell Dendrobium, Fengdou and other health products at the same time, to see whether the sales ability is real.

4. look at the business license: look at the date of the license, whether the company is newly opened, whether it is linked to other manufacturers, and whether the official seal is the same subject as the planting base and the pharmaceutical factory.

5. On-the-spot investigation: growers with larger scale must make on-the-spot visits and inquire about the reputation of the enterprises.

6. Don't believe in bag recycling: bag recycling is indeed attractive to valuable traditional Chinese medicine growers such as Dendrobium candidum, but even if it is a uniform variety of fresh strips of Dendrobium candidum, the purchase price fluctuates every year. Those who dare to sign a 5-year planting and recycling contract with extremely high guaranteed prices do not have high credibility.

Third, do you make money by planting Dendrobium?

Because of its slow growth cycle, harsh growth conditions and extremely low reproduction rate, Dendrobium candidum has been excavated in large quantities without restriction in recent years, and Dendrobium candidum is on the verge of extinction, resulting in a continuous surge in the price of Dendrobium candidum. The price of fresh products has more than doubled from 600 yuan per kilogram in 2010 to 1500 yuan per kilogram in 2012, and its first-class dry product Maple Dou exceeded 20, 000 yuan per kilogram in 2013. With the continuous breakthrough of agricultural technology and the application of tissue culture technology and artificial cultivation technology, the industry of Dendrobium candidum has been developed rapidly. the existing planting area in China has exceeded 2000 hectares. Zhejiang, Yunnan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Anhui, Hunan, Fujian, Jiangsu and Sichuan have been cultivated, with an output value of more than 3 billion yuan, making it one of the largest production and sales volume and fastest growing traditional Chinese medicine in China.

IV. Market prospect of Dendrobium

At present, the total annual demand of the whole Dendrobium market is 800010,000 tons, and the annual demand is increasing by 1015%. Artificial planting has just started and there is a serious shortage of supply. It is estimated that the output of Dendrobium will still be difficult to meet the market demand within 10 years. Now the price of super pure Dendrobium is about 100,000 yuan per kilogram. The price of first-class Dendrobium is between 20, 000 yuan and 30, 000 yuan per kilogram, and there is no stock.

The cultivation of Dendrobium candidum is indeed promising and profitable, but the planting technology is more stringent, and many people do not have enough technical experience to plant, which will lead to losses.
