Two-stage cultivation method of ophiopogon japonicus
By adopting a two-stage cultivation method in Ophiopogon japonicus planting, rice and Ophiopogon japonicus are planted in separate areas to achieve crop rotation between water and dryland crops. This solves the problems of competition between medicinal and grain crops for land and pests and diseases in traditional planting, and improves the yield and economic benefits of Ophiopogon japonicus and rice.

AI Technical Summary
Traditional planting methods for Ophiopogon japonicus involve competition between medicinal and food crops for land. Continuous dryland farming combined with continuous cropping leads to an increase in pests and diseases, and weeding costs are high while yields are low.
A two-stage cultivation method is adopted, dividing the planting field into paddy fields and lilyturf seedling fields, and planting rice and lilyturf together. After the rice is harvested, lilyturf seedlings are planted. A crop rotation system is adopted, fertilizers are applied rationally, planting density and timing are controlled, and reliance on manual weeding is reduced.
This method enabled crop rotation of Ophiopogon japonicus and rice in the same field within a year, which increased the yield of Ophiopogon japonicus and the output of rice, reduced the cost of pest and disease management, and significantly improved various growth indicators and net income of Ophiopogon japonicus.
