Fig is a kind of fruit that can be used both for medicine and food, which can be processed to dry, preserved fruit, jam, fruit juice, fruit tea, fruit wine, beverage, canned and so on. So what are the prospects for planting figs in 2020? Which varieties are good to plant? What are the planting techniques?

What are the prospects for planting figs in 2020?

At present, the annual output of the world is about 24-2.6 million tons, but the output of our country is less than 10, 000 tons. At present, the planting area of figs in China is still relatively small, but the market demand for figs is still on the rise. The planting area of figs is sure to continue to expand, and the planting prospect of figs is still very considerable.

The market price of fresh figs in 2019 is about 15-20 yuan per jin, and the price should be determined according to different varieties. Some varieties will be relatively expensive. For example, the price of South African figs and Weihai figs is about 35 yuan per jin. The price of dried figs may be more expensive. So the prospect of planting is very good.

Second, what kind of figs should be planted?

Figs can be divided into fresh varieties, processed varieties, landscaping varieties and dual-purpose varieties. If you want to grow fresh food varieties, you can choose Kawasaki, Japanese purple fruit, purple light and so on. Kawasaki has high quality and high yield; Blenrik varieties are the most resistant, both fresh and processed. Although Masiyi Tao Fen is large, it has a general flavor and is easy to crack fruit, so it is not suitable to be cultivated in rainy areas.

III. Fig planting techniques

1. Planting: usually one-year-old seedlings can be planted in autumn or spring. The planting density is 2-3 m between rows and 1-2 m between plants. 100-300 plants per mu are planted. The Y-shaped pruning method is usually cultivated with row spacing of 2m, hole spacing of 4m, 2 plants per hole and 170 plants per mu. Before planting figs, soil miscellaneous fertilizer 20kg and phosphate fertilizer 2kg were applied. After planting, the aboveground part of the seedlings was sealed with soil to prevent cold and preserve soil moisture. Before sprouting in spring, it was stripped off to facilitate germination.

two。 Inter-row management: adopt the soil management of interrow grass or the connection of interrow crops and grass mulching to restrain the return of salt, reduce the soil salt content, improve the soil structure and fertilize the soil fertility. The soil management system with the combination of grass mulching and recommendation can improve soil moisture, maintain moisture and avoid soil erosion in the rainy season. In the young tree and early fruit stage, legume crops and vegetable crops can be intercropped between rows.

3. Fertilization: topdressing 5-6 times a year, mainly nitrogen fertilizer, 200-300kg per mu, and 2-3 times of compound fertilizer and 250-300kg per mu from August to October of fruit maturity. Spraying 0.3% Mel 0.5% potassium dihydrogen phosphate or potassium nitrogen-based compound fertilizer can increase fruit and reduce fruit cracking.

4. Watering: the main water requirement period of figs is from July to September before overwintering, germination and fruit growth and development; more water can be evaporated in the summer high temperature season, and the amount of water can be increased; irrigation methods: traditional furrow irrigation, hole irrigation, sprinkler irrigation and drip irrigation can also be used. In rainy seasons or low-lying areas, remove stagnant water or make high ridges in time.
