Requirements of Bupleurum chinense planting conditions on the growth environment

Bupleurum planting conditions

Bupleurum prefers a warm and humid growing environment, has strong adaptability to the environment, and is cold-resistant, drought-resistant, and afraid of waterlogging. It requires a growth and development period of 2 years for artificial cultivation. The flowering time is from early August to late September, and the fruit ripens from early August to late November.

Bupleurum planting climate

Bupleurum can safely overwinter at -40℃ and is very cold-resistant. The seeds begin to germinate at 18 degrees, and the growth of the plant accelerates as the temperature rises. However, if the temperature exceeds 35 degrees, its growth is inhibited. It grows vigorously from June to September, and the root growth accelerates in the later period.

Bupleurum planting area

Bupleurum is distributed in Northeast China, North China, Northwest China, East China, Hubei, Sichuan and other places. The land can generally be sandy soil, loess, or sloping land, but it cannot be compacted or have stagnant water. Most importantly, there cannot be stagnant water, otherwise the roots will rot.

Bupleurum planting time

Bupleurum is suitable for sowing in spring and autumn. The temperature at this time is neither high nor low, but relatively warm, and the air humidity is relatively high, which is suitable for seed germination. The survival rate of planting is very high compared to summer and winter.

Benefits of Bupleurum chinense cultivation

If planted properly, one acre of Bupleurum can produce about 100 kilograms of dry products. It will enter the high-yield period the following year and can produce more than 100 to 200 kilograms of dry products. The output value per acre can reach 8,100 yuan. Excluding the cost of 550 yuan, the profit of one acre of Bupleurum is about 7,550 yuan.
