The cost and prospects of planting 50 acres of lawn

In recent years, with the acceleration of urbanization and the rise of new rural construction, the demand for turf for beautifying the environment and purifying the air has become increasingly greater.

Naturally, the uses of lawns are becoming more and more extensive, and many farmers have also seen business opportunities and started growing turf. The income from one acre of turf can exceed 10,000 yuan .

Of course, turf cannot be planted in basic farmland, but turf has very low requirements for soil. No matter it is sandy soil, clay, loess, black soil, or gravelly soil with stones, it can grow as long as there is water.

The cost of growing turf is very low. The main inputs are seeds and labor costs. The total cost per acre is about 1,200 yuan, and 50 acres of land requires about 60,000 yuan.

The turf can be harvested three times a year, at 7 yuan per square meter. One acre is 660 square meters, so it costs 4,620 yuan each time. If it is harvested three times a year, the total income is 13,860 yuan .

With the rapid development of urban construction, the demand for turf in landscaping, stadiums, residential areas, leisure courtyards, high-end leisure places, etc. is increasing.

Turf planting is favored by farmers for its short cycle, quick results, easy management and high economic benefits. Turf planting has become a "green bank" for farmers to increase their income and become rich .

How to grow a good lawn with high returns

1. Land preparation: Level the ground, fine-tune large pieces of soil, pick out stones, and tidy up the terrain to prevent water accumulation on the grass.

2. Laying medium and sand: The main function is to level and increase the flatness of the turf.

3. Lay out the lines and lay the lawn.

4. Watering: Water the turf as soon as it is laid and water it thoroughly at one time. Flatten the turf: Flatten the turf immediately after watering. First, it increases the flatness of the turf. Second, it allows the roots of the turf to penetrate into the soil in the largest area, which promotes the rooting of the turf.
