What is annual pueraria lobata?

Pueraria lobata, which we habitually talk about, is actually a general term for pueraria lobata and pueraria lobata. Of course, you don't have to worry too much about oral English, but in the code of traditional Chinese medicine, "Pueraria lobata" actually refers to Pueraria lobata. Pueraria lobata is a variety improved by artificial cultivation of wild Pueraria lobata.

Pueraria lobata produced in tengxian has a long history of cultivation. More than 100 years ago, local farmers discovered a wild kudzu vine, which is not only medicinal, but also powdery and residue-free, and tastes slightly sweet, especially in soup, which is delicious and nutritious. Gradually, some people tried artificial cultivation and named it "Pueraria lobata". Through continuous variety improvement, hard work and improved planting methods, kudzu vine has developed into an excellent mainstream variety with fast growth and high yield, and a set of fast growth and high yield planting techniques has been explored. When we say "annual kudzu vine variety", we actually mean not only a kudzu vine variety, but also its planting technology. Through shed cultivation, pruning and seedling control, bare roots and selection of pueraria lobata, the yield per mu of perennial pueraria lobata can reach several thousand kilograms in 6~7 months, and the spring planting and winter harvest can be realized.

Annual kudzu vine is mainly distributed in heping town, tengxian, Wuzhou City, Guangxi Province. It is the main producing area of kudzu vine in China and a veritable hometown of kudzu vine. Pueraria lobata is a traditional soup ingredient in Guangdong and Guangxi. It can be used to make dozens of excellent dishes, such as braised pork, bone soup and herring soup. Pueraria lobata can also be deeply processed, such as Pueraria lobata tea, Pueraria lobata beverage, Pueraria lobata vermicelli and Pueraria lobata noodles. The market demand for Chinese herbal pieces, prescriptions, flavonoids extraction, estrogen extraction and other medical uses is increasing. Feng Wan Ge Ye provides high-quality annual kudzu seedlings.

Pueraria lobata has the same growth characteristics as tuber crops such as sweet potato, and can be planted in frost-free period 150 days except Tibet and Qinghai provinces. Sow in February-May every year and harvest in batches from September of that year to the end of March of the following year. Planting methods include extensive creeping planting (also known as creeping planting) and scaffolding planting. Creeping planting saves labor, planting 500 to 600 plants per mu, which is suitable for planting in mountainous areas, but the yield is low. Scaffold planting is 800 to 1000 plants per mu, which has a heavy workload in field management, but it is particularly high-yielding, and is suitable for farmers with less land. These two methods can be combined. Pueraria lobata has strong disease resistance, less pests, less pesticide use during planting and simple and extensive management, which is suitable for developing green ecological agriculture.
