How much is the average yield of millet per mu? How much is the profit of planting millet per mu?

Millet yield per mu

Millet is an important food crop, but its yield is not very high. It takes about 135 days from sowing to harvesting. The yield per mu is about 600-800 jin, but the rice yield is only about 70%.

Prospects for millet cultivation

The yield of millet is relatively low, and the market price is about 1.5 yuan per catty. Therefore, after deducting the cost, the income per mu of millet is only about 1,000 yuan, which is relatively low.

If you want to make money by growing millet, you must develop in the direction of high quality and high yield. Solving the problem of high yield is the key to improving efficiency, so the focus of future work can be placed on cultivation and breeding.

How to grow millet for high yield

1. Choose good varieties

If you want to obtain high yields of millet, it is best to choose high-quality, high-yield and stable-yield varieties for planting. Recommended ones include Changxiang Valley, Yugu, Maomao Valley No. 5, etc.

2. Site selection and land preparation

For millet planting, the choice of planting site is also very important. It is necessary to choose a plot with deep soil and convenient drainage and irrigation. It is not advisable to plant repeatedly during planting, and the land should be deep plowed to a depth of at least about one foot.
