Origin Processing Methods and Technical Key Points for Angelica sinensis
The processing of Angelica sinensis directly affects the quality and medicinal efficacy. Because fresh Angelica sinensis contains more than 60% water and the medicinal component volatile oil, if processing is not timely or not done well, it will become moldy and deteriorate. Processing methods and procedures for Angelica sinensis: 1. Sorting and bundling. The recovered Angelica sinensis should be sorted promptly, and roots that are rotten, especially water-rotted, should be picked out to prevent the spread and infection of water rot. The selected Angelica sinensis is spread under the eaves in a dry, ventilated place to air-dry for about 7 days so that the moisture evaporates and the roots become soft, then they are bundled with willow twigs or tree bark. Each bundle of fresh

Key Harvesting and Processing Techniques for Angelica sinensis (Danggui) (Part One)
(1) Harvesting For direct-sown plants, dig in mid-to-late October of the second year; for seedlings raised in a nursery and then transplanted, dig in mid-to-late October of the same year, when the plants have withered and turned yellow. Digging too early results in roots that are not plump and solid, with low yield and poor quality; digging too late means the soil has already frozen, making digging difficult and prone to breaking the roots. Before harvesting, first cut off the above-ground stems and leaves and sun-dry them for 3-5 days, so that the roots become fuller and more solid; then carefully dig out the entire root. (2) Processing After harvesting, angelica sinensis must not be piled up. First clean off the soil, choose a high, dry, well-ventilated spot, spread the roots out to dry until the roots become soft, or sort them

Detailed Explanation of Angelica sinensis Harvesting and Processing Techniques (Part 3)
For autumn direct-seeded plants, harvest in the second year; for transplanted plants, harvest in late October of the same year, when the plants turn yellow and withered. Dig up the whole plant, shake off the mud and sand, and air-dry for 2-3 days until the roots become soft. Then remove the stems, leaves and fibrous roots, sort them by root size, tie them into small bundles, hang them head-down on the curing rack, and smoke and roast them slowly with smoke and fire. During smoking, pay attention to indoor ventilation and turn them frequently. After drying, rub off the fine hairs and fibrous roots, and they are ready as a commercial product. Generally, 667 sq m can produce about 150 kg of dried product. High-yield fields can reach 400 kg.

Detailed Explanation of the Key Processing Techniques for Reishi Mushroom Fine Powder
For the processing technology, direct grinding into powder or drying an extract into powder is generally used. For direct grinding into powder, the reishi fruiting bodies are first crushed into small pieces, then repeatedly ground with an electric grinder and sifted to obtain fine powder. For drying an extract into powder, the reishi fruiting bodies are first crushed into granular form, then soaked in warm water. After that, the extract liquid is dried into powder. This kind of fine powder contains no cellulose, has higher commercial value, and has better market prospects. This processing method is described in detail below. 1. Preparatory work: The raw material is dried reishi fruiting bodies selected to be free of soil and dust and free of mold; the equipment includes a grinder, a jacketed reaction tank
