Yield of wormwood. Wormwood germinates in the old roots in March every year, and the first one can be harvested at the end of April, and 4-5 trees can be harvested every year, and the yield per mu can reach 400 kg (hay).
The price of wormwood. The wholesale price of wormwood (dry) in 6 yuan, the retail price in the market 12 yuan, and 50 yuan per catty. For example, Jianqiao Food Processing Co., Ltd., Lanxi County, Anhui Province, has an annual output of 400-500 tons of wormwood, which is exported to Japan at the price of 50 yuan, with a price of more than 50 yuan per catty.
Imported wormwood. In addition to labor costs, there are fixed commercial street acquisitions, with an income of about 4,000 won per mu.
In this regard, it can be said that if wormwood makes money like this, why are many people unwilling to plant it? In fact, wormwood planting has advantages and disadvantages.
The growth field is relatively broad. Artemisia argyi has strong vitality, can grow in fields, mountains and land, and can be planted in most areas of China except in arid and cold areas.
Strong growth ability. Artemisia annua doesn't have high environmental requirements, and it can grow 4-5 trees every year. Different from other crops, Artemisia annua can wait for receiving if it is topdressing in time after planting.
Suitable for industrial molding. If there is wormwood planting nearby, an industrial chain of wormwood planting can be formed, and cooperation with some buyers can further reduce sales costs, reduce capital investment and improve management ability.
The planting of wormwood in many areas is different from that in Shancha County, with special support from the government. If individual planting is carried out in a small area, contacting buyers and freight costs are a huge investment. If this matter can't be solved, the price of 6 yuan per catty can only be seen in the fog and the moon in the water.
Wild wormwood is more popular. Many moxa processing enterprises, such as moxa sticks, moxa sticks, moxibustion, essential oil, etc. There is a great demand for wild wormwood, but there is little demand for artificial cultivation. With the vigorous development of wild plants, many humble wild vegetables have become delicacies on people's tables. In addition, some wild plants have certain health care effects on human body, so they are processed into medicinal materials or healthy foods and sold at home and abroad. Now people in many areas use local resources to turn wild vegetables into an industry, which greatly promotes farmers' income. There is a kind of wild grass that we are very familiar with. It's absinthe.
The wormwood industry has developed quite well, and there are many products about wormwood in the market, most of which are slogans of health preservation, so the market demand is also great. It is reported that wormwood can not only be eaten after processing, but also be widely used in health care, beauty, health preservation, medicine and other industries after deep processing. Generally speaking, the demand is particularly large, and now the export volume is increasing year by year. It can be seen that China people not only recognize the efficacy of wormwood, but also foreign friends quite recognize wormwood.
