Goji berry hedge around the garden also brings extra income, double benefit from planting
Building a garden is easy, but guarding it is hard, and a full perimeter fence takes up space; is there a tree that can both enclose the garden and increase income? Yes. That is the cold-hardy large-fruited goji berry. Through the author's observation, it has the following advantages: 1. Easy to plant and highly resistant. It overwinters without freeze damage at 45°33' N latitude, and is drought-tolerant and poor-soil-tolerant. Seeding, cuttings, and division all readily produce new plants, and apart from occasional aphids, no other pests or diseases have been seen. 2. Fast growth and results in the same year. In the year of planting, goji berry can reach a height of 1.5 m to 2 m, initially providing protection. On vigorous leaf axils

What to do when mushrooms grow from the sides of the bag and many are deformed
During sterilization, the bags press against one another, the round bags become deformed, and gaps form between the substrate and the bag, providing air and space for the mycelium to knot together. Add low temperature, light stimulation and mechanical stimulation (such as turning the bags over), and the mycelium on the sides of the bag knots to form primordia, which develop into fruiting bodies. Because of the restriction of the plastic bag, these mushrooms are all deformed. When this happens, pinch and press the mushroom buds promptly to stop their growth, so as to avoid wasting more nutrients. The fruiting bodies are small and the marketable rate is low:

How should cuttings be treated when propagating yew (Taxus) from cuttings?
When propagating yew from cuttings, the method for treating the cuttings is: cut branches at least 15 cm long as cuttings, remove the lower leaves, girdle the base of the branch to make a wound 0.5 to 1 cm wide, wait until nodular growth forms around the wound, then cut the branch off below the girdled part, and soak the basal end in 100 ppm indoleacetic acid or phenylacetic acid for 3 hours, or soak it in a 200 ppm ABT No. 2 rooting powder solution for 8 to 10 hours.

Detailed Explanation of the Method for Sprouting and Raising Black Locust Seedlings from Root Segments
Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) is tolerant of drought and poor soil and grows quickly, making it a good tree species for rural landscaping around homes and for block planting. If the root-segment sprouting method is used for raising seedlings, it is not only low in cost and simple to carry out, but the seedlings are also of good quality. 1. Site selection and bed preparation Choose a nursery site that is sheltered from the wind, faces the sun, has level ground and good drainage as the hotbed. Before making the beds, apply 1000 kg of organic fertilizer per mu, and 50 kg each of ammonium bicarbonate and superphosphate; after plowing and harrowing level, scatter a 100:1 bait of bran and methamidophos on the bed surface to prevent damage from underground pests such as mole crickets. The beds should run north-south, 1.5 m wide and about 12

How to rescue fish from toxic water? Three methods for treating fish
Excess dissolved oxygen toxic water syndrome: Excessive dissolved oxygen in the water body can cause eutrophication of the water, leading to gas bubble disease and various other conditions in fish. Many small bubbles adhere to the fish gills, causing the fish to float up or lose balance when swimming. There are white bubbles in the fish intestines, or relatively many bubbles are attached to the fish body surface, fin rays, and gill filaments, and the fish body floats on the water surface; in severe cases, it can cause fish to die in batches. When bubbles appear in the fish pond, first, clean water should be injected quickly while discharging part of the pond water; fish with mild symptoms can expel the bubbles in clean water; second, use 400-60 per mu of water surface

How to Distinguish Swine Dysentery from Diarrhea? A Detailed Guide to Integrated Prevention and Control Methods
Dysentery and diarrhea in pigs are relatively common, especially in large-scale pig farms. On some pig farms, the harm caused by swine dysentery and diarrhea is quite serious, particularly piglet dysentery and diarrhea, which have become key factors restricting piglet survival rates. Improving the ability to clinically distinguish swine dysentery from diarrhea is of great significance for grassroots animal disease prevention and control workers and large-scale farm (household) owners to promptly adopt prevention and control measures. 1 Differences and Classification of Dysentery and Diarrhea. Dysentery and diarrhea are both clinical symptoms. What is commonly called loose stool mostly

What are the ways to prevent finishing pigs from becoming too fat?
Some farmers, in trying to make their pigs grow faster, end up with large pigs that are too fat. Why? Growing pigs "eat to meet their energy needs," so the energy level of the diet affects a pig's feed intake, growth rate, feed utilization and carcass lean percentage. For example, when the dietary energy level is reduced to 10.8 MJ/kg feed, the growth rate and feed utilization decrease, but the carcass lean percentage increases; when it is reduced to 8.8 MJ/kg feed, the energy intake is insufficient, which severely reduces the pig's growth rate and feed utilization, and the pig will be very thin. Energy

Raising pigs and chickens in a layered, combined system yields high profits and is worth learning from for farmers.
It is reported that this good method of raising pigs and chickens in a layered, combined system was first promoted and used in rural areas across Shanxi in 1998. Seven years later, this rearing method has been widely promoted in most rural areas of our country and has achieved good economic and social benefits. According to farmers using the combined pig-chicken system, in a combined pig-chicken house of about 32 sq m, using the raised-bed cage method (chickens on the upper layer, pigs on the lower layer), the upper layer can raise about 180 to 200 laying hens, and the lower layer can raise 6 to 8 fattening pigs (or 10 to 15 piglets), with the pigs directly pecking at and eating fresh chicken manure.
