Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of agricultural planting, and specifically relates to a planting method for effectively alleviating the continuous cropping obstacle of Gastrodia elata Bl.. Background Art

[0002] Gastrodia elata Bl. is a plant of the genus Gastrodia in the Orchidaceae family. It is mainly used to treat symptoms such as headache and dizziness, infantile convulsions, paralysis of hands and feet, epilepsy, convulsions, and tetanus. It is a traditional precious Chinese medicinal material in China. At present, Gastrodia elata Bl. mainly comes from understory semi-wild cultivation. Gastrodia elata Bl. is suitable for planting under broad-leaved or shrub forests at an altitude of 800 - 2200 m, with an air humidity of 70% - 80%, an average annual temperature of 10 - 25°C, loose and breathable soil, slightly acidic to neutral soil rich in organic matter, and a canopy density of 0.6 - 0.7. Moreover, Gastrodia elata Bl. is a heterotrophic plant without roots and leaves, and completely depends on the symbiotic relationship with Armillaria mellea to obtain nutrients. It requires a large amount of fungus wood, and has relatively high requirements for the tree species of the fungus wood, mainly broad-leaved trees such as oak, chestnut, birch, and liquidambar, and camphor tree, pine tree, cypress tree, etc. are not suitable. Therefore, there are not many forest lands suitable for planting Gastrodia elata Bl..

[0003] The continuous cropping of Gastrodia elata Bl. for a long time will lead to the enrichment of pathogenic bacteria in the soil, resulting in the imbalance of the bacterial community, the accumulation of autotoxic substances, the decline in the activity of Armillaria mellea, and the overconsumption of humus and specific trace elements required by Armillaria mellea, etc., causing the rot of Gastrodia elata Bl. tubers, the reduction of yield, and even crop failure. Therefore, Gastrodia elata Bl. avoids continuous cropping. Generally, the land needs to be fallow for four to five years before Gastrodia elata Bl. can be planted again, which makes the medicinal farmers who plant Gastrodia elata Bl. often change forest lands, resulting in low utilization rate of forest lands and high economic costs. Therefore, improving the soil and alleviating the occurrence of continuous cropping obstacles of Gastrodia elata Bl. are urgent problems to be solved in the current Gastrodia elata Bl. industry.

[0004] In recent years, people have carried out relevant research on the continuous cropping of Gastrodia elata Bl., but most of them are the analysis of the diversity of the rhizosphere soil bacterial community in continuous cropping, and there are few reports on soil repair and improvement methods. In the patent application No. 2023104379533, corn is sown on the Armillaria mellea bed in the Gastrodia elata Bl. planting area, and Gastrodia elata Bl. is planted after harvesting the corn. The contents of gastrodin, p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, etc. are higher than those of the traditional method, but the terrain of this patent is more suitable for slightly flat land. Corn is not suitable for planting under the forest, and there is a large gap from the understory planting of this patent. The patent application No. 2018111881665 mainly provides a method for culturing Armillaria mellea wood for Gastrodia elata Bl. planting. The selected plot is a hillside land, not understory planting and continuous cropping soil. At the same time, the soil selected by this method is the soil after one year of fallow after understory Gastrodia elata Bl. planting. Summary of the Invention
