Why interplanting dry Pinellia ternata in fruit orchards is highly profitable
Dry Pinellia ternata is best suited for interplanting in fruit orchards, because it prefers shaded environments. During hot seasons with direct sunlight, the plants are prone to lodging (seedlings turn yellow, wither and shrink), causing tuber growth to stop. In the hot summer, the lush foliage of fruit orchards serves as a natural protective umbrella that provides shade during the vigorous growth period of dry Pinellia ternata, offering favorable conditions for normal tuber growth. Interplanting dry Pinellia ternata in each mu of fruit orchard can yield about 120 kg of dried product, and its cultivation benefit increases by 3-5 times compared with interplanting conventional crops. 1. Sowing. Spring March-May

High returns from intercropping mushroom cultivation in citrus orchards
The author succeeded in growing mushrooms between the rows of a densely-canopied citrus orchard, achieving a double harvest of both citrus and mushrooms. Large-scale promotion has shown that generally each mu of orchard produces more than 3000 kg of citrus per year, worth 4000 yuan; and 800 kg of fresh mushrooms, worth 3200 yuan. After deducting production costs of 1500 yuan, the total net income is more than 5700 yuan, which is more than 2000 yuan higher than growing citrus alone. Intercropping mushrooms in the orchard also helps to increase humidity, retain warmth and improve the soil. 1 Raw material preparation Each mu requires 1500 kg of dry wheat straw (rice straw or sawdust may also be used), 20 kg of lime and 15 kg of urea

Key Technical Points for Autumn and Winter Management of Pear Orchards
Autumn and winter is an important period when pear trees shed their leaves and enter dormancy. Strengthening the management of pear orchards in autumn and winter is beneficial to the growth, flowering and fruiting of pear trees the following year. 1. Rational fertilization: By the end of November, apply a deep autumn fertilizer to the pear orchard once, and the amount applied should account for more than 30% of the total annual fertilizer application, mainly organic fertilizers such as decomposed oil cake fertilizer, residue fertilizer, composted manure and human and livestock manure. The method is: at the drip line of the canopy of adult pear trees, dig 1-2 ring-shaped fertilization pits about 60 cm long and 25 cm deep and 25 cm wide, and apply 30-40 kg of decomposed human, livestock and poultry manure water fertilizer per tree.

Occurrence and Control Methods of the Comstock Mealybug in Pear Orchards
(1) Occurrence patterns The Comstock mealybug belongs to the order Homoptera, family Pseudococcidae. Also known as the pear mealybug, plum mealybug, and mulberry mealybug. It generally produces three generations per year, overwintering as eggs and nymphs in hidden places such as cracks in the rough bark of tree trunks, bagged diseased and pest-infested fruits scattered in the orchard, weeds around the root zone, soil clods, and fallen leaves. Adults and nymphs suck the sap of tender buds, tender shoots, and fruits. Before bagging, it mainly damages tender buds and tender shoots, causing leaves to twist, swell, and shrivel, leading to branch dieback. After bagging, it burrows into the bags to damage the fruit, gathering in the calyx depression and stem depression, secreting white wax powder, contaminating the fruit, and sucking

How to control insect and mite pests in citrus orchards? Rotenone-cypermethrin EC is the first choice
Spring returns to the earth, and the citrus orchard has also put out tender green spring shoots, full of vitality. However, as long as you observe carefully, after the long winter rest, insect, mite and disease damage in the citrus orchard is also quite serious. According to our field observations, the pests currently occurring in citrus orchards include scale insects, aphids and various whiteflies, and the harmful mites include red spiders and rust mites, etc.; in addition, sooty mold disease in ordinary citrus orchards is also quite serious. Control should be carried out early, so as to treat it early, treat it when there is little, and treat it until it is gone. Red spiders, rust mites, scale insects and various whiteflies are all tiny pests with strong resistance that have given people headaches in recent years.

Detailed Explanation of Early Spring Management Measures and Technical Points for Peach Orchards
For early spring management of peach orchards, focus on ditching, supplementary fertilizing, gap filling, and applying eradication agents, which helps form strong buds and lays the foundation for high yield and quality peaches that year. 1. Clear ditches for smooth drainage. Low-lying terrain and heavy clay soil mean waterlogging damage is a major constraint on high yield and quality of peach trees. Especially since precipitation was low since the second half of last year, it is highly likely that rainfall will be excessive this year. If the ditch system in the peach orchard does not drain smoothly, severe waterlogging will damage roots and weaken tree vigor. Therefore, for the main drainage ditches and perimeter ditches of the peach orchard, labor should be organized for thorough clearing to

High-yield cultivation technique for three successive crops intercropped in jujube orchards
The jujube tree (Ziziphus jujuba) has relatively strong growth adaptability and is a tree species that prefers warmth and light. When the spring temperature reaches 13-15°C, it begins to sprout branches; when the monthly average temperature is above 17°C, flower buds begin to differentiate; when it is above 2O°C, it flowers; the suitable temperature for fruit ripening is 18-22°C; when the temperature drops to 15°C, it begins to shed leaves. Because of its characteristics of late sprouting, early leaf fall, and little shading, it is suitable for intercropping with grain, cotton, and vegetables, and the economic benefits are very considerable. The following introduces the high-yield technique for interplanting three successive crops in one year in a jujube orchard. 1. Key points of jujube cultivation techniques

Key Points of Water Management Techniques in Schisandra chinensis Orchards
1. Irrigation The root system of Schisandra chinensis is relatively shallow, and drought has a considerable impact on its growth, flowering, and fruiting. In Northeast China, spring rainfall is scarce, making drought conditions likely and highly unfavorable to the early growth of Schisandra chinensis. If irrigation can be carried out promptly throughout the year according to climate changes and the plant's water requirements, it will have an extremely significant effect on improving the yield and quality of Schisandra chinensis. Schisandra chinensis is most sensitive to water during the bud break stage, the rapid shoot growth stage, and the rapid berry enlargement stage. Water shortage in the early growth period can cause uneven bud break, short and small shoots and leaves

Key Points of Post-Harvest Cultivation and Management Techniques for Citrus Orchards
During the annual growth cycle, mature citrus trees go through flower bud differentiation, flowering, fruit set, physiological fruit drop, fruit expansion, three flushes of new shoots and branch growth, and three root growth peaks, consuming a large amount of energy and nutrients, severely weakening tree vigor. In addition, various pest and disease residues concentrate within them, bringing many adverse effects to the following year's growth and fruiting of citrus trees. Therefore, strengthening post-harvest cultivation and management of citrus orchards to rapidly restore tree vigor is of vital significance to the following year's citrus production. The author believes that post-harvest cultivation and management of citrus orchards should focus on implementing the following techniques
