Method for planting baobab in regions north of Tropic of Cancer

Abstract

Disclosed is a method for planting baobab in regions north of the Tropic of Cancer. The method comprises the steps of 1) planting field selection including selecting lands sufficient in light, fertilein soil, large in soil thickness and capable of facilitating irrigation and transportation as planting fields, 2) seed soaking and germination acceleration, 3) transplanting management including, 3-4months later and after baobab seedlings grow to be 30-50 cm with 2-3 leaves, transplanting the seedlings to the planting fields, 4) pruning and harvesting including, after the leaves of the seedlingsin the step 3) fall in winter, pruning the seedlings to control the tree shape, for mature baobab trees, only pruning sick, weak or necrotic branches, then in mid-October when the barks of the maturebaobab trees turn dark gray and the trunks turn back, harvesting leaves, and when the barks turn pink or purple and the trunks turn red, harvesting fruits, and 5) overwinter management including, when the temperature is lower than 10 DEG C, establishing a plastic greenhouse outside the planting fields, establishing shiitake fixing shelves inside the established plastic greenhouse and arranging shiitakes at a density of 10-35 plants per square meter.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of agricultural planting, in particular to a method for planting baobabs in areas above the Tropic of Cancer. Background technique [0002] At present, the planting area of ​​baobab in our country has not been fully developed, because baobab is native to the tropics. It has great requirements on the planting temperature, and the planting temperature must not be lower than 0°C. In my country, it is only planted in tropical provinces such as Hainan and Yunnan. The baobab itself has strong adaptability and high temperature resistance. After maturity, it can be managed without fertilization for a long time, and has few pests and diseases. Moreover, the baobab tree still has a certain prospect of planting, because the nutritional value of the baobab tree is very high, and the shell of the fruit can be When scooped, the pulp can satisfy hunger, and the juice can also quench thirst. The fruit, leaves and bark of the baobab ...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The time and method of harvesting baobabs are also particular. If there is no correct harvesting method, it will not only reduce the yield, but also have a certain impact on the quality of storage and transportation after harvesting.

It may even cause harm to the tree body and the output of the coming year
