Why has the price of Anomatis soared so fast from being worthless to 3,000 yuan per pound?

Anomatis has always been valuable. It has never been cheap, but it has become more expensive in recent years. The specific reasons can be explained in detail below:

1. The more expensive ones are the red-leaf Anomatis. Although the green-leaf ones are not cheap, they are not extremely expensive either.

There are two types of Anomatis, one with green leaves and the other with red leaves. The green-leaf type is Anomatis common on the market. Its price is not too high. In the 1990s, its price was 40 yuan per catty. Now most of them are around 300-700 per catty. Fresh, but even if it is fresh, it is very light. This kind of Anomatis can be cultivated artificially, so its price is not too high. The price of green wild Anomatis is around 800 yuan per pound at most, and it is not impossible for ordinary people to tell the difference.

The red-leaf Anomatis is the most expensive, because it basically cannot survive cultivation, so most of them are wild of. Even if some planting experts simulate the artificial environment, that technology must not be passed on to others, and the price must be in the hands of others. In the 1990s, it had already received 400 yuan per catty, which is the kind that has now risen to 3,000 yuan per catty, and 3,000 yuan per catty is still priceless.

2. Irregular operation of herbal collectors.

There are many herbal collectors in our country who have become monks on the way. They are the kind of herbal collectors who will collect all the herbs in the entire area. Since the 1990s, rock orchid, orchid grass, Ganoderma lucidum, wild panax notoginseng, five-fingered peach, fire plum bark, and tung seeds have all been harvested in an extinct way. Because they are poor and rely on the mountains, it is not easy to find something that can be sold for money. , found a piece, leaving nothing to harvest next year.

For those that grow on slopes, dig up the roots;

For those that grow on stone walls, the entire patch of moss will be removed from far and near. Stay;

If it grows on a tree, that tree will not see the spring of the second year;

If it grows by the water, not a single root will be left in the surrounding reeds?

These herb collectors can’t say that they did something wrong, they are just afraid of poverty. If you dig one more, you will get 7 cents more, and if you pick three more taels, you will get 1 yuan more. 2? These were in those days , have been exchanged for children’s tuition fees, medicine fees for the elderly, and fines for over-children?

You tell them about ecology, but they don’t understand; you tell them about species protection, they don’t understand; you tell them They said that collecting herbs is like hunting, and you need to keep the roots; they can understand that egg-laying snakes are not caught, pregnant deer are not killed, seed fish are not slaughtered, and wild boars with cubs are not hunted, but they don’t understand that it’s just flowers and plants, what’s the point? Protected?

It was during that period that many wild herbs were almost extinct everywhere in terms of their medicinal sources.

3. Anomatis is not easy to cultivate artificially.

In artificial cultivation, only green-leaf Anomatis has been successfully cultivated, but red-leaf Anomatis has rarely been successfully cultivated. Even if the red-leaf Anomatis is transplanted from the wild environment, it will still grow into green leaves soon. It has been impossible to simulate the growth environment of the red-leaf Anomatis for more than 30 years.

Some breeding bases brought back the entire rotten leaf field where the wild Anomatis grew intact, and it only grew A crop of red-leaved goldenrod grows after harvesting, and the leaves slowly turn green again. Although there are many Anomatis growing now, there are still no ones that can grow Anomatis with red leaves, so its price is on the rise.

In general, as far as the planting and cultivation of traditional Chinese medicines are concerned, there are many wild environments that cannot be simulated. Many precious Chinese herbal medicine plants are still disappearing under the inadvertence of farmers. This is not only It is caused by the greed of people and changes in the environment. It is not easy to stabilize the price of Chinese herbal medicine.
