Apply 1500 kg of decomposed farmyard manure as a base fertilizer per mu, and apply a layer of farmyard manure and a layer of soil to the pit.

Soak seeds for germination before sowing, soak seeds in warm water at 25 ° C to 30 ° C for about 4 to 6 hours, germination at 25 ° C to 30 ° C, and soak seeds when the seeds are white for about 30 hours. According to the plant spacing of 25 to 30 cm, about 4 seeds per hole, covering 2 cm of soil and slightly suppressing, so that the seeds are in close contact with the soil. The dosage of each acre is about 400 grams, about 10 to 20 days after sowing, and the seedlings are once after emergence. When there are 2 to 3 true leaves, the seedlings are once again.

At the time of harvest, the petiole of 10~20 cm is often left on the plant, and the leaf stalk is cut off. The shovel is dug 80~90 cm deep on the side of the sirloin root of the burdock to reveal the burdock root. You can hold the base of the burdock and tilt it upwards. Out.
