Is growing ginseng profitable?

At present, with the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for ginseng is getting higher and higher, and the price of ginseng is very high. The better quality ginseng costs 200-300 yuan per catty, so if properly maintained, growing ginseng is still very profitable.

Profits and Benefits of Ginseng Planting

Ginseng planting is a high-yield project, but the initial investment is also very high. The total cost is approximately 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. Based on an output of 5,000 kilograms per mu, after deducting the cost, there can still be a profit of 50,000 to 100,000 yuan.

High-yield cultivation techniques for ginseng

1. Land preparation and fertilization

If you want a high yield of ginseng, it is best to plant it in an area with fertile soil, good drainage, and rich organic matter. Before planting, you need to deep plow the soil three times and rake the soil flat and fine.

2. Sowing and seedling raising

In order to increase the germination rate, ginseng needs to be germinated before planting, and then sown by broadcasting or row sowing, with the row spacing controlled at about 30 cm.

3. Build a scaffold

After ginseng is planted, a shed needs to be built to block some light to prevent the plants from being killed by the sun. The height of the shed is required to be around 80-100 cm.
