What is the price of bletilla (Bletilla striata) per jin? What are its cultivation prospects?

There are many plants with high nutritional value on rural mountains, but in recent years, due to environmental changes, the numbers of many wild plants have declined. On the other hand, people pay more attention to health, and the market demand for nutrient-rich wild herbs and Chinese medicinal materials is also growing. Under these circumstances, artificial cultivation of bletilla (Bletilla striata) has become a trend. Today we will learn about the price of bletilla per jin and the cultivation prospects of bletilla.

1. How much is bletilla per jin?

The market price of bletilla fluctuates. Because its yield, quality and demand differ, the price varies widely, and the market prices of bletilla in different regions also differ. In general, the market price of fresh bletilla is about 50-80 yuan per jin, while processed and dried bletilla, according to different grades, is priced at about 150-250 yuan per jin. According to the bletilla prices in most markets at present, the most common is bletilla at about 170-180 yuan per jin, but at the peak of the bletilla market it can generally sell for over a thousand yuan per jin. At present, the price in the Anguo market is generally about 120-150 yuan, in the Yulin market it is generally about 160-170 yuan, and in the Bozhou market it is about 150-160 yuan. Therefore, the above prices are for reference only, and the specific price should be based on the actual price.

2. Cultivation prospects of bletilla

The annual yield of bletilla is very small. In recent years, people have dug up bletilla without restraint, causing the wild yield to decrease year by year. Therefore, the bletilla market is generally in a state of supply falling short of demand, so a rise in the market price of bletilla is also an inevitable trend. The nutritional value of bletilla is very high. Not only can its rhizome be used as medicine, but its flowers also have very high ornamental value and can also be used as flower tea. As research on bletilla intensifies, its range of uses is also becoming wider, so the cultivation prospects of bletilla are still quite good.
