The latest market trends of safflower and dayun medicinal materials in Bozhou

Flower planting is extremely enthusiastic. The planting area in Tacheng area has soared from 140,000 to 150,000 acres in 2006 to nearly 200,000 acres. T)8p:}P!

35-37 yuan, and the net income has shrunk by more than 70% compared with the same period in 2006, and a considerable number of farmers have suffered losses. Farmers gave up picking and only waited to harvest safflower seeds. During the period when safflowers were in full bloom, there were two or three rains in the Tacheng, Jimu, and Ili producing areas, causing safflowers to bloom. Unable to pick, some safflowers were forced to give up. _2O uskL
It can be seen from the above that farmers in Xinjiang production areas expanded planting but did not increase income. Affected by various factors, the output of new products increased H) 5QqZ8

Four products: What are the major factors for the rise in safflower prices? #C\4/g? =,
1. The rise in grain prices, to varying degrees. Restricting the development of safflower area.

2. The transfer of rural labor force has accelerated the significant reduction of safflower area. Although safflower is easy to grow and easy to manage, it is easy to grow. p>l`gTU?

It greatly affects the yield of safflower, and at the same time, it also affects the quality of safflower. There are two types of safflower varieties: thorny and thornless. X?df cS*!n

Through optimization and improvement in recent years, most of them are thornless. Even the thornless variety safflower has small thorns on the edges of the leaf teeth.

It is easy to hurt the flower pickers, and when the price of safflower is low, farmers are even less willing to pick it. Many safflowers are wasted because no one collects them, which makes the yield even lower. s4t0f_vj `

4. National policies, natural disasters, man-made disasters, epidemics and other unexpected factors have caused a surge in usage.

has increased sharply. Since Sichuan and Henan are the main labor-exporting provinces for safflower picking in Xinjiang, an earthquake occurred in Sichuan during the early stages of safflower picking.
