What is the per-mu yield of quinoa in jin? Methods to increase the per-mu yield

SummaryIn northern China, the per-mu yield of quinoa is around 500-800 jin, while in southern China the per-mu yield is generally around 500 jin. Its place of origin is South America, and it is now grown all over the world. In China, it is mainly grown in the northern regions.

I still remember the first time I saw a quinoa field about to be harvested, and I was truly stunned by that beautiful sight. The colorful hues surged like waves as the breeze blew past, and it was gorgeous. Quinoa is the only complete-protein grain plant; a single food can meet the various basic nutritional needs of the human body. However, the price of quinoa is very high, because the growing conditions for quinoa are relatively demanding, so the yield is not high. Next, let us get to know it together.

What is the per-mu yield of quinoa in jin

The per-mu yield of quinoa grown in northern China is 500 to 800 jin, while the yield in southern China is generally around 500 jin. The place of origin of quinoa is South America, and it is now grown all over the world. In China, it is mainly grown in the northern regions. Quinoa also has different types.

1. Classified by color, it can be divided into dark-colored quinoa and light-colored quinoa.

Dark-colored quinoa generally includes red quinoa and black quinoa. Red quinoa has a very high fiber content and a beautiful color, and is generally used to make salads. Black quinoa has a relatively sweet taste.

Light-colored quinoa is mainly white quinoa, also known as ivory quinoa.

2. Classified by saponin content, it can be divided into bitter quinoa and sweet quinoa.

How to increase the per-mu yield of quinoa

To increase the per-mu yield of quinoa, you must improve the cultivation techniques for quinoa. Next, let us learn about them together.

1. To grow quinoa, you need to choose a place with strong light, good ventilation, and convenient irrigation, and choose soil with good fertility. Moreover, growing quinoa is not suitable for continuous cropping. The land must be prepared thoroughly to ensure good soil quality, and sufficient base fertilizer must be applied; you can choose organic compound fertilizer or well-fermented farmyard manure.

2. The planting time of quinoa is also very important. Generally, sowing begins in late spring, and the specific time should be decided according to the climate of that year. Too low a temperature is not conducive to sprouting, and sowing too late will affect the growth of quinoa, resulting in relatively small quinoa grains and a low yield.

3. After quinoa seedlings emerge, planting can begin. Generally, strong seedlings with a height of about 15 cm are chosen for planting. During the quinoa seedling stage, weeds must be cleared in time to avoid taking away the nutrients of the quinoa. In addition, quinoa is not drought-tolerant during the seedling stage, so it needs timely watering to ensure the survival rate. In the mature stage, watering is no longer needed.

4. In the later stage of growth, attention must be paid to the prevention and control of pests and diseases.

5. After quinoa heads, diseased and poorly growing plants need to be pulled out to ensure that healthy quinoa can grow better.

6. In the late mature stage of quinoa, attention must be paid to preventing lodging, because the stems of quinoa break very easily.

Quinoa has a unique taste and also carries a faint, light fragrance. It is a food that is very easy to cook and especially easy to digest. It can help us supplement nutrition in a balanced way and improve the body's immunity. Long-term regular consumption will have very noticeable effects.
