How to grow licorice for high yield? A full breakdown of the technical key points
1. Soil selection. Choose deep soil layers, good drainage, high-lying terrain, and sandy soil and sandy loam soil with relatively high calcium content. Waste flats and waste slopes with slightly alkaline soil and a pH between 7 and 8.5 can all be cultivated. Plots with low-lying terrain and heavy clay soil must not be planted. 2. Variety selection. Choose the new "Wosheng licorice" variety suitable for artificial cultivation. This variety has the following characteristics: First, strong adaptability, drought resistance, cold resistance, salt-alkali resistance, heat tolerance, and tolerance to poor soil. Its temperature adaptation range is 43 to 45°C. In areas with severe water shortage or relatively dry conditions, no wilting or death has been found, and it can adapt to weakly alkaline calcareous soil. At the same time, it is suitable for intercropping with young forest and fruit trees; second, a short growth cycle. With seedling raising and transplanting, the seedlings grow for 3 to 4 months, and after planting they can be harvested after 8 to 10 months of growth; third, fast growth. Because of its prostrate growth habit, combined with artificial cultivation techniques, it grows horizontally at 30 cm on the soil surface, and its absorption rate of natural conditions such as light, water, and fertilizer is high, so its growth speed is fast. Thirty days after sowing, 3 to 4 true leaves appear. At 60 days, the plant height is 30 cm, the root length can reach 20 cm, and the diameter is 0.5 cm; fourth, harvesting and processing are simple. All operations can be mechanized, less labor is used, and it can be sold after being naturally dried to 80 percent; fifth, high yield and good quality. The yield of medium rough grass per mu is more than 500 kg, and high-yielding fields can reach 800 kg. The skin is red, there are few branches, and the strips are uniform. It meets the standards of the national pharmacopoeia and complies with the germplasm requirements for building a GAP production base.

What are the key techniques for high-benefit cultivation and management of licorice?
(1) Site selection and land preparation. Licorice has strong adaptability, and most soils can be used for planting except saline-alkali land. In autumn, apply barnyard manure or compost as base fertilizer, plow more than 20 cm deep, rake level and make beds 1 m wide and 17 cm high, and open small furrows on the bed surface for sowing at planting time. (2) Propagation methods. Use seed propagation and rhizome propagation. 1. Seed propagation. This method can be used to expand the area. (1) Seed treatment. Under natural conditions, the hard seed rate of licorice seeds is as high as more than 80%-90%. Pre-sowing seed treatment is the key to a high yield.

Symptoms and Control Methods of Licorice Root Rot
Latin scientific name: Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn. Damage symptoms: Infected plants develop yellowed, withered leaves; the stem base and main root all turn reddish-brown and dry-rotted, with longitudinal cracks or red streaks on them; lateral roots are rotted or very few; diseased plants are easily pulled out of the soil; the vascular bundles of the main root turn brown; when humidity is high, pink mold grows on the roots. Morphological characteristics of the pathogen: generally caused by nematodes and Pythium species. Classification: called Rhizoctonia solani, a fungus of the subphylum Deuteromycotina. Disease occurrence characteristics: Fusarium is a soil-inhabiting fungus, in the soil

Detailed Explanation of the Processing Technology and Method for Licorice-Flavored Melon Seeds
1. Ingredients: Use 5% licorice, 3% salt, and 0.05% saccharin, add water and boil into a broth. 2. Method: Wash the black melon seeds, air-dry them, put them into a wok and heat over high heat until hot to the touch. Switch to low heat, and at the same time sprinkle in the prepared broth, stirring while sprinkling, until the melon seed kernels turn yellowish.

Detailed Explanation of Control Methods for Licorice Leaf Spot Disease
① The pathogen is a type of imperfect fungus (Cercospora astragali), belonging to the subdivision Deuteromycotina → Moniliales → Cercospora fungus. It damages leaves; affected leaves produce circular or irregular lesions, with the center of the lesion grayish-brown and the edges brown, and grayish-black mold-like growth on both the front and back of the lesions. Fruiting bodies grow on both sides of the leaf, but mainly on the upper surface; the stroma consists of only a few brown cells; conidiophores are born in bundles of 6 to 12, pale brown, with the apex lighter in color and narrower, unbranched, having 0 to 5 geniculate nodes, with the apex nearly truncate, spore scars prominent, and 1 to 7 septa; conidia are whip-shaped to obclavate, colorless and transparent, straight to curved, with the base truncate to nearly truncate, the apex slightly blunt, and 3 to 10 septa.

What to do about bloody diarrhea in dogs? It can be treated with Pulsatilla decoction combined with Licorice and Donkey-Hide Gelatin
Bloody diarrhea in dogs is one of the most common canine diseases in clinical practice. The disease develops extremely rapidly, and treatment with antibiotics yields little or no effect, with a mostly poor prognosis. Pulsatilla decoction plus Licorice and Donkey-Hide Gelatin decoction is a representative formula in human clinical medicine for treating blood deficiency and prolonged diarrhea damaging yin, originating from the Jin Gui Yao Lue (Synopsis of the Golden Chamber). 1. Clinical symptoms: sudden onset, listlessness, fever, thirst with excessive drinking, little or no eating, dry nose, vomiting, diarrhea with pus and blood that is often bright red or purplish red, along with tenesmus, weakened or faint bowel sounds, a crimson tongue body, yellow coating, and a slippery or wiry rapid pulse

What are the highly effective pesticides for controlling rice skipper?
1. Optimal control period: This should be strictly timed to the peak egg-hatching stage and young larval stage of the rice skipper in the field, that is, July 29 to August 6 is the best period for pesticide application. 2. Targets for control: Rice fields with tender green growth, late transplanting and late development, late development after sitting, and seed-production maternal rice fields are all key target fields for control. 3. Protect natural enemy resources, prohibit the application of highly toxic pesticides, increase the parasitism rate of eggs, larvae, and pupae, and achieve pest control through beneficial organisms. 4. Chemical control: For rice skipper, use Qiansheng 8000 at 50 grams per mu, 90%
