How many jin per mu does licorice yield? About 1200 to 1600 jin per mu

AbstractThe yield of licorice per mu is about 1200 to 1600 jin, and the harvest cycle is generally 2-3 years. Licorice is a common Chinese medicinal herb and is currently cultivated in Northwest, North and Northeast China, with characteristics such as water saving and drought resistance.

1. How many jin per mu does licorice yield

1. Growing licorice is not difficult. As long as the soil and moisture are suitable, it can be planted on a large scale. When planting licorice, it takes 2-3 years to harvest, and the yield per mu is about 1200-1600 jin. Licorice has relatively strong adaptability and can be planted in arid and semi-arid areas with an average temperature of 4℃-12℃.

2. The key to solving the problem of artificially cultivated licorice is not funding or land, but the ability to improve the quality of artificially cultivated licorice.

3. It is necessary to increase investment in scientific research, conduct research on variety selection, seed collection and other aspects, and find suitable solutions.

2. How to grow licorice

1. When growing licorice, the land should be prepared and fertilized. Before sowing licorice, use a rice mill to crack the seed coat, and grind 1-2 times. When the seed coat shows alternating green and white, it is ready.

2. The suitable germination temperature for licorice seeds is 20℃-25℃, and licorice seeds are mostly sown in late April.

3. On the second day after sowing, apply licorice-specific insecticide and herbicide once each. The two agents can be combined into one spraying.

4. During the seedling stage in the first year, pay attention to weeding. From the second year onward, there is no need for intertillage and weeding.

5. After licorice enters the branching stage, in order to accelerate rapid growth, each mu of licorice can be topdressed with 10KG urea and 10KG diammonium phosphate. In autumn, when the stems and leaves wither, the stems and leaves can be burned or cut off.

6. After entering the rapid growth period in the second year, combined with watering, each mu of dry grassland can be topdressed with 20KG diammonium phosphate, 10KG urea, 10KG potassium fertilizer or one bag of compound fertilizer.

7. Under different climate and soil conditions, there are relatively large differences in the yield and quality of licorice.

8. Licorice has relatively strong adaptability to temperature conditions, and moisture conditions play a decisive role in licorice yield.

9. For licorice cultivation, sandy soil with fertile soil, loose texture, good drainage and low salinity is usually selected.

10. Areas with a high groundwater level are not suitable for growing licorice. Generally, deep plowing is about 20 cm. Areas with heavy clay soil are not suitable for growing licorice.

3. Current status of licorice cultivation

1. At present, due to increasing demand in international and domestic markets, the price of licorice has been rising.

2. Large-scale artificial digging has caused environmental damage. Since last year, the state has issued relevant documents refusing artificial digging of wild licorice, and major production areas have also carried out strict crackdowns. At present, licorice stocks are difficult to meet export demand.

3. Licorice is relatively suitable for cultivation in Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Ningxia and other places. Licorice is relatively drought-tolerant and salt-alkali-tolerant, and is a good project for sand fixation and desert control.
