Garlic sprout yield per mu

Generally, the yield of garlic shoots is about 300 catties per mu of land, and the more fertile land can reach 400 catties per mu. The yield of garlic heads is about 1,500 catties . Since the growing period of summer-sown garlic is short, scientific field management will help increase yields.

Prospects of garlic sprout cultivation

Planting cost: The planting cost of garlic sprouts mainly includes all the expenses of arable land, garlic seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, mulch, irrigation, labor, garlic planting, garlic sprout extraction, garlic digging, etc., which costs about 3,700 yuan. One mu of dry garlic can be sold for 7,500 yuan, and the harvest of garlic sprouts can bring about a profit of about 1,000 yuan. After deducting the cost, you can make about 5,000 yuan.

They contain a lot of protein, vitamins, minerals, and allicin, which are very good for protecting the skin, sterilizing, and promoting digestion. Most consumers prefer to eat them. To plant garlic sprouts, you can do a simple survey of the local market and cultivate them according to your actual situation.

How to grow garlic sprouts for high yield

1. Select garlic cloves: If the purpose of harvesting garlic shoots is to select garlic shoots with high yield, large and uniform garlic heads should be selected. Small cloves, pod core cloves, yellow cloves, and soft cloves should be removed. The standard weight of every 100 cloves of garlic is between 400g and 500g.

2. Fertilization and land preparation: Apply sufficient base fertilizer, apply well-rotted chicken manure or other organic fertilizers, choose land with fertile soil and good drainage, avoid continuous cropping, and use a rotary plow to till the soil to a depth of 13 to 20 centimeters, which is conducive to the root system to take root.

3. Dig furrows and sow: When sowing, place the garlic cloves upright in the furrows, and the direction of the seeds should be consistent and parallel to the rows, so that the unfolded leaves after emergence are perpendicular to the rows, and the leaves are reasonably distributed to absorb strong light.

4. Watering and ground covering with film: After planting, use a stone roller to flatten the ground. After watering, use a film press to press the film. If there is no weed film, spray garlic herbicide before pressing the film. Pressing the film is the key to increasing production, which can increase it by 30% compared to usual.

5. Prevention and control of diseases and pests: Garlic sprouts are prone to purple spot disease and downy mildew. Spray them with 500 times diluted fungicide one or two times. Use methyl thiophanate to prevent and control garlic white rot, garlic dry rot and garlic leaf blight.
