Harvesting Methods and Technical Key Points for Licorice
For licorice grown from seedlings and transplanted, it is best to harvest at 2-3 years, with autumn harvesting giving the best quality. Before harvesting, the stems and leaves can first be cut off for use as livestock feed. Then harvest with a subsoiler or a special licorice harvesting plow, trying as much as possible to prevent damage to the root bark and premature root breakage. Shake the soil off the dug roots; they must not be washed with water. While still fresh, remove the remaining stems and fibrous roots, cut off the root heads, and grade them according to root thickness; the root strips must not be shorter than 20 cm. After trimming and cutting into sections, dry the licorice in the sun by grade. When sun-drying licorice, pay attention to protecting it from rain, and the drying yard must be free of contamination. When the licorice is half-dried, tie it into

Key Technical Points for Seed Treatment in Cultivated Licorice
Licorice seeds have a hard seed coat and poor water absorption, with a germination rate of only 4-6%. They need to be treated by milling or sulfuric acid to break the hard-seeded state and improve the germination rate and seedling emergence rate. I. Sulfuric acid treatment method. For each kilogram of clean seeds, use 20-30 milliliters of 80% sulfuric acid and stir evenly. Once uniform sulfuric acid etching marks appear on the seed coat, rinse with clean water and dry in the sun for later use. The treatment time depends on temperature and the amount of acid added. With the same amount of acid, a high temperature means a short treatment time, and a low temperature means a long treatment time. The more acid added,

Processing Methods and Technical Key Points for Licorice Olive
The raw material used for licorice olive is also olive base, with the same processing technique as chili olive, only the formula is different, and of course the flavor is different too. The processing technique is as follows: 1. Raw material treatment: Desalt the olive base. Since the aim is to highlight the licorice flavor, too much salt should not be left during desalting; generally a slight saltiness is sufficient. After desalting, drain the water or bake until semi-dry for later use. 2. Licorice liquid preparation: Use 5% licorice liquid, that is, for 50 kg of olive base use 2.5 kg of licorice, add 50 kg of clean water, boil down into 20-25 kg of licorice liquid, filter and set aside.

Detailed Explanation of the Key Technical Points for GAP Cultivation of Honeysuckle
The original plant of honeysuckle is Lonicera japonica Thunb., a plant of the Caprifoliaceae family, also known as silver flower and two-flower. It is a perennial evergreen vine-like shrub. It is mainly produced in Shandong and Henan nationwide, and can be produced in most areas, among which the production areas abundant in high-quality honeysuckle lie between 32o-35o north latitude. I. The health value of honeysuckle. Since ancient times, honeysuckle has been widely famous for its medicinal value. The Shennong Bencao Jing records: "Honeysuckle is cold in nature and sweet in taste, and has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying,

Key Technical Points and Correct Methods for Applying Boron to Cotton
In recent years, statistics from cotton boron fertilizer trials in various regions show that on boron-deficient soils (soil available boron below 0.5 mg/kg) and potentially boron-deficient soils (soil available boron below 0.8 mg/kg), applying boron fertilizer to cotton can achieve good yield increases. 1. Base fertilizer: Apply before cotton sowing or before transplanting nutrient (pot) seedlings, incorporated during land preparation. Apply about 0.5 kg of borax per mu, which can be mixed evenly with fertilizers such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium and applied together, or mixed with fine dry soil before application. 2. Seed fertilizer: At cotton

Key Technical Points for Cultivation and Management of Cotton under Hose Drip Irrigation
As the crop area in Jimsar County has increased year by year, water resources have become scarce, and the cost of cotton has risen, the comparative benefit of cotton has declined year by year. For this reason, we introduced and promoted the technique of cotton drip irrigation under film at normal pressure (hose). I. Main indicators 1. Yield: 100-130 kg of lint cotton per 667 sq m. Yield composition: 13,000-15,000 harvested plants per 667 sq m, 5-6 bolls per plant, 5 g per boll, lint percentage 33%-35%. 2. Fertilizer and water

How to manage cotton after topping in July? Detailed technical points
Hot or high-temperature and high-humidity conditions are one of the most harmful factors in the livestock and poultry industry, leading to the occurrence of heat stress syndrome in livestock and poultry. Heat stress suppresses the body's immune function, reduces the concentration of immunoglobulins in the blood, decreases the number of lymphocytes in the blood, and causes a decline in the phagocytic capacity of macrophages in the body, triggering infectious diseases in livestock and poultry. Therefore, heat stress makes livestock and poultry prone to all kinds of diseases. Since modern excellent livestock and poultry breeds with higher production performance have weaker resistance to heat stress, severe heat stress often causes high-producing livestock and poultry to die first, resulting in serious economic losses. Here we discuss improving the

Detailed Explanation of Key Technical Points for Drip Irrigation and Fertigation under Cotton Mulch
Drip irrigation under cotton mulch is a new water-saving technology that allows artificial control of irrigation volume and field microclimate, greatly alleviating the **tension of water use for the first irrigation, and can control the reproductive growth and vegetative growth of cotton, helping to shape an ideal plant architecture and reduce ineffective nutrient consumption. Although some problems still exist in practical application, cotton under drip irrigation generally opens bolls earlier, has better quality and higher yield. At the same time, under special climatic conditions, drip irrigation has demonstrated unique cold resistance. When encountering special low-temperature conditions in spring and autumn, growth and development remain normal, with strong high and stable yield, and a relatively concentrated maturity period.

What are the key technical points for cotton boll stage management?
The period from flowering to boll maturity and boll opening in cotton is called the flowering and boll stage. In general cotton fields, from early July to early September, cotton growth during the flowering and boll stage still involves both vegetative growth and reproductive growth proceeding simultaneously, but gradually shifts from vegetative growth dominance to reproductive growth as the main focus. The main direction of management in this period is to increase the setting of three bolls. Its management techniques mainly include five aspects. 1. Heavily apply flowering and boll fertilizer, and supplement with top-covering fertilizer. The fertilization time is at full flowering when 2 mature bolls have set on the lower part of the cotton plant. Generally, apply 10-15 kg of standard nitrogen per mu. If soil fertility is poor, cotton plant growth is weak, and soil

How to Raise Ducks? Key Technical Points Explained
Stocking time. According to the feed resources in the orchard, orchard duck raising is divided into a period dominated by free-range stocking and a period dominated by confinement rearing. The most suitable stocking period is the peak season for the reproduction and growth of plants and animals in the orchard, generally from mid-April (after Qingming and before Guyu) to the end of October. At this time, the forage grass in the orchard grows luxuriantly, and there is plenty of residual byproduct from the fruit trees; the ducks can feed on various kinds of green grass, wild vegetables, and fallen flowers, leaves, and fruit as plant-based feed, as well as various insect eggs, pupae, crawling insects, and near-surface flying insects as animal-based feed. Adult ducks can be stocked year-round. Site selection. Ducks move clumsily
