A new method for keeping garlic fresh, teaching you to store it longer
5-10 days before harvesting garlic, spray the basal leaves with a 0.2% maleic hydrazide (MH) sprout inhibitor. The MH sprout inhibitor is absorbed through the leaves and transferred to the young sprouts of the garlic cloves, thereby inhibiting their growth and achieving the purpose of keeping them fresh. With this method, garlic can be stored until April of the following year. The following points should be noted when spraying the chemical: 1. Do not water for 3-4 days before spraying the solution. If rain occurs within 24 hours after spraying, immediately re-spray the solution once at the original dosage after the weather clears. 2. Strictly control the concentration of the maleic hydrazide (MH) sprout inhibitor, which must not exceed 0.

New Rapid Propagation Technology for Hybrid Gastrodia: Detailed Explanation of Two Methods
I. Potted Breeding Method for Gastrodia Arrow Bud Mother Corms (Using Yidu Red Gastrodia as an Example) 1. Potted Seedling Cultivation: Around Qingming Festival, when room temperature stabilizes above 15°C, select fresh, robust, plump-budded, undamaged high-mountain wild red gastrodia arrow bud mother corms weighing 100-150 g (labeled Wild Red) and plains-cultivated red gastrodia arrow bud mother corms (labeled Domestic Red). Plant them separately in river sand in plastic washbasins or enamel basins, evenly placing 4 arrow bud mother corms (plants) per basin, with arrow buds (parrot-beak tips) facing upward and 3-5 cm from the basin edge, covering with 5-

How Should Garlic Be Stored? Five New Methods to Teach You
There are many methods for storing garlic. Depending on the storage purpose and conditions, methods such as hanging storage, heap storage, burial storage, radiation storage, and chemical treatment storage can be used. They are specifically introduced as follows. 1. Hanging storage method: When harvesting garlic, the garlic intended for hanging storage should be strictly selected, removing those heads that are too small, have rotten stems and leaves, are damaged, or have been affected by moisture. Then spread them on the ground to dry in the sun until the stems and leaves become soft and yellow, and the outer skin of the garlic is dry. Finally, select 50 to 100 garlic heads of uniform size, braid them, and hang them under a cool, ventilated, rain-sheltered eave so they are air-dried and stored.

How to prevent and treat Newcastle disease in chickens? These methods you need to master
Newcastle disease in chickens, also called Asian fowl pest, commonly known as fowl plague, is a highly contagious, acute, and virulent infectious disease of chickens caused by Newcastle disease virus. It often presents as septicemia, with the main features being difficulty breathing, diarrhea, nervous system disorders, and hemorrhage of mucous membranes and serous membranes. I. Epidemiological characteristics: chickens of all breeds and ages can be infected, with young chickens and growing chickens being more susceptible, and older chickens over two years of age having reduced susceptibility. The main sources of infection for this disease are sick chickens and virus-carrying chickens; their secretions, feces, as well as contaminated feed, drinking water, non-susceptible wild birds, external parasites, humans and livestock can all transmit the pathogen. The main routes of transmission are the digestive tract and respiratory tract, and it can also invade the body through damaged skin and mucous membranes. It can occur in all four seasons. In non-immune areas or in flocks with low immunity, once a velogenic strain invades, it can spread rapidly, causing a devastating epidemic, with morbidity and mortality reaching over 90%. At present, in large and medium-sized @#@230@#@ farms, where flocks have a certain level of immunity, Newcastle disease mainly appears in an atypical form, which should be given attention.

How to treat swine asthma? Sharing effective remedies and new methods
Swine asthma is a chronic disease characterized mainly by coughing and wheezing, accelerated breathing, audible wheezing sounds, a dog-sitting posture, foamy discharge from the mouth and nose, and reduced appetite, and it mostly occurs in cold, damp weather or when the climate changes abruptly. Affected by feeding management and sanitary conditions, the mortality rate is relatively high when secondary infection occurs. The following combination of drugs can cure it in a very short time, with good results. The method is: inject 1 ml of Houttuynia cordata injection and 10 ml of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride injection per kilogram of pig body weight, and inject 5-10 ml of methylene blue injection and 0.01-0.03 ml of atropine sulfate injection per pig, all by intramuscular injection, twice a day, with 4 days as one course of treatment, and two courses for severely ill pigs.

How to prevent and control frost damage to young and newly planted tea trees? These seven methods must be mastered
1. Apply winter manure. Young and newly planted tea trees have relatively weak cold resistance, so before overwintering, a heavy application of winter manure should be combined with earthing up and mounding around the base. The fertilizer should mainly be farmyard manure, stable manure and biogas residue, which have a certain heat-preserving effect, along with a certain amount of cake fertilizer, superphosphate and potassium sulfate fertilizer. Winter manure can not only preserve heat and prevent freezing and enhance the tea trees' freeze resistance, but also lay a good foundation for the tea trees' growth the following year. 2. Earth up and mound around the base. Preventing the root crown from freezing is a key measure for protecting young and newly planted tea trees from frost. Therefore, before young and newly planted tea trees overwinter, they should

Detailed Explanation of New High-Yield Potato Cultivation Methods
In order to simplify traditional potato planting techniques, reduce labor intensity, reduce labor employment, lower production costs and improve planting efficiency, we conducted experimental demonstrations of the potato "four noes" planting technique. The technique is summarized as follows. I. Technical advantages 1. Saves labor and effort. Compared with traditional methods, this technique implements the "four changes": first, changing plowing and land preparation to compartmentalized no-till; second, changing hole-digging and hole sowing to laying seed potatoes on the soil surface; third, changing cultivation and weeding to mulching for weed prevention; fourth, changing digging soil to harvest potatoes to lifting straw and picking potatoes

What are the new methods for high-temperature mushroom cultivation?
Mushrooms are tender and delicious, making them a traditional edible fungus variety that people generally love. However, the common mushroom variety is the button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus), with a fruiting temperature of around 16°C, coming to market in autumn, winter and early spring. The edible fungus technology extension station of Zhangjiagang City, Jiangsu Province, introduced and cultivated a high-temperature mushroom variety in 1998: the four-spored mushroom (Agaricus bisporus, four-spored type), with a fruiting temperature of 26-31°C; the fruiting bodies still grow well in July and August when temperatures reach as high as 26-38°C, and it can maintain continuous batch production capacity. The following is a brief introduction to high-temperature mushroom cultivation techniques.
