Two Processing Methods for Dehydrated Garlic Slices and Sweet-and-Sour Pickled Garlic
1. Dehydrated garlic slices: Select fresh garlic bulbs that are well matured, free of injuries, pests and diseases, white in color and large in size. After removing the stems, separating the cloves and peeling, slice them while wet, then rinse in an aqueous citric acid solution to reduce the activity of garlic enzymes. Note that rinsing must be completed within 24 hours after slicing, so as to prevent the garlic slices from producing colored pigments due to oxidation, which would affect the color of the finished product. Place the rinsed garlic slices in a temperature-controlled dehydrator and dry them in three stages: keep the temperature at around 60°C in the early stage, increase it moderately in the middle stage, and keep it above 70°C in the late stage, but it must not exceed 78°C, so as to prevent the garlic slices from scorching, which would affect flavor and color. When the moisture content of the garlic slices drops to about 5%, the finished product is obtained.

Garlic-Ginger Intercropping Brings Good Returns: A Full Analysis of the Planting Advantages
In the history of Zhucheng City, Shandong Province, ginger was mostly grown as a sole crop. Trials and demonstrations of garlic-ginger intercropping began in the 1980s and achieved relatively good economic returns. However, because the intercropping techniques were not fully matched, for example no intercropping rows were left, the intercropped ginger bulbs became smaller, and some even failed to meet export standards, which dampened ginger growers' enthusiasm for intercropping. In order to explore the cultivation techniques for garlic-ginger intercropping, the author carried out multiple trials and survey analyses from 1992 to 1995 in Chengguan Town, Lubiao Township and other places, and summarized a matched set of techniques suitable for local garlic-ginger intercropping.

Key Field Management Techniques After Harvesting Garlic Scapes
First, clean the field sources in a timely manner. After the garlic scape harvest is finished, garlic growers should promptly clean the field sources, tidy up the leaves in the field that were bruised during scape harvesting, and carry broken leaves, old leaves and diseased leaves out of the field for deep burial, so as to prevent the year-by-year accumulation of fungal sources in the field and reduce the number of pathogenic fungi in the soil the following year. Second, do a good job of clearing ditches and regulating soil moisture. Taking advantage of the free time after the garlic scape harvest, garlic growers should promptly clean the drainage ditches in the garlic field to prevent waterlogging after rain from affecting the growth of garlic bulbs, ensure that the field has a complete three-ditch system with smooth drainage, and improve its own stress resistance.

Adding garlic to pig feed can promote pig growth
Swiss researchers have found that adding a small amount of garlic to pig feed is highly beneficial to the healthy growth of pigs. Garlic may be enough to play the role of antibiotics in the process of raising meat pigs. Martin Jost of the poultry research institute added ordinary antibiotics, garlic, or nothing at all to the feed of three groups of piglets. The results showed that the use of garlic was more effective in reducing diarrhea and sudden death in piglets than using no garlic or only antibiotics, but the drawback was that pigs fed with garlic as an additive gained weight more slowly, while those using antibiotics
