I can't finish it in July. Some people use it as feed and fuck a catty of 50 yuan. The gap is too big.

After entering July, the temperatures in various places are simply unacceptable. It is said that the temperature this year will once again break the historical record. Many places have reached a high temperature of 40 degrees, which is the hottest year in decades. Especially the heat in big cities, not to mention, that thermometer may be used outside the chart. However, in hot weather, in order to harvest crops, farmers still have to work in the outdoor heat and go home sweating with bags of agricultural products on their backs. Although I am a little tired, I will naturally be happy when the crops are harvested.

July is the season when peppers are ripe, and pepper producing areas actively harvest peppers at this time. Fresh peppers are hung on trees, and it is quite hard for farmers to pick them one by one in hot weather. However, it is said that the market is good this year, and farmers are full of energy and are not afraid of hardship. Zanthoxylum bungeanum is very small, but the quantity is super large. Every year when the pepper is ripe, it is endless pepper.

Pepper is a kind of seasoning, it is estimated that no one knows it, but it is a fresh pepper hanging on a tree, which is estimated that many people have never seen. Pepper on the market is processed and dried, and fresh pepper hardly enters the market. Now pepper has become a well-known condiment, but in ancient times its social function was not food in people's mouths, and most of the time it was only used for sacrifice.

This is recorded in ancient times. For example, the Book of Songs in Zhou Song records that "Pepper has its fragrance, and Hu Kao is the best", which means that the ancient Ming people sacrificed peppers to ward off evil spirits and asked the gods to bless them.

Until later, people found that the taste of pepper was very strange, and some even fell in love with its taste. Since then, pepper has embarked on the road of ingredients and has gradually been accepted by people. At present, China's pepper planting areas are mainly concentrated in the southwest, and Chongqing is a famous pepper producing area.

This has a lot to do with the living habits of local people. People in Chongqing, Sichuan and other places have a feeling for pepper, which is almost indispensable in every family life. Slowly, pepper cultivation was formed locally, and later it gradually became a cash crop.

In some producing areas, people may find a strange phenomenon. Many farmers pick pepper and feed it to chickens instead of using it as seasoning. What the hell is going on here? It turns out that local people raise chickens and find that chickens are always anorexic in summer. By chance, I found that feeding chickens peppers can improve their appetite, so when the peppers are ripe in summer, I always take some fresh peppers to feed them. But this is also the practice of chicken farmers. Most people grow peppers to make money.

The price of peppers in the market varies, mainly depending on the quality pricing. Ordinary quality peppers can be sold to 50 yuan for a catty after drying, and the best quality peppers can be sold for several hundred yuan a catty. However, these prices are not fixed and will fluctuate with market changes. So many people don't understand why peppers are so valuable. It's a pity to feed them to chickens. In fact, the amount of pepper used to feed chickens is actually very small, which does not affect the farmers' harvest.

In fact, Zanthoxylum bungeanum has many uses, not only as seasoning, but also as Chinese herbal medicine, which has high medicinal value. Nowadays, in the market, Zanthoxylum bungeanum can also be used as industrial raw materials to make various perfumes and essential oils. I wonder how much you know about pepper.
