One out of every five watermelons in the country is from henan
Henan is the province with the largest area of watermelon cultivation in the country, with an area of about 3 million acres, yielding more than 10 million tons annually and ranking first in the country for years. One out of five watermelons is from henan. Right now, it's time for the watermelon in the south。
In the prenupt-yenzin district, where over 7,000 acres are grown in watermelon, the guanon is busy selecting, picking and loading vehicles. In the summer of this year, there are an estimated 14,000 tons of watermelon supply markets in yanzin county。
More than half of the watermelons grown in henan province are lugus, with nearly 1. 5 million acres planted in sheds. According to the data, watermelon acreage in the province of henan is now more than 3,000 kg, more than double the world average, and good species plus good practices are the secret。
There are still a small number of late harvests of watermelons that are not harvested in henan, and drip irrigation techniques are used in the field to allow for precision irrigation and accurate fertilization。
The chinese academy of agricultural sciences, zhengzhou institute of fruit trees, is an expert in watermelon breeding: using a “wheat set of watermelons to plant sweet potatoes”, it can also increase land use by planting corn and peppers to ensure food production while improving farmers' efficiency。
The watermelon is sweeter this year
In your traditional impressions, watermelons are grown “on the ground”, while many of them are grown “on the right foot” in the largest watermelon-producing area of beijing. What are the advantages of this form of empty neutral cultivation
In the summer season, when the boom watermelon had just ended its first listing period, the small, thin and early “pomponquaon watermelon” was popular。
The towns of pang, located in the core area of dynamite watermelon, are now mainly growing small and medium-sized watermelons. On weekends and holidays, many citizens drive to pick them, and around three pounds of small watermelons are increasingly favoured。
In the past two years, watermelon cultivation in beijing has been in the range of 35,000 acres, with an annual production of about 100,000 tons, of which more than half the area and production of watermelon in the dynasty region has been distributed。
Radio reporter shen li: i've got a hot watermelon. From the looks of it, because it is a watermelon growing up on vines, it is free of the sun and more abundant light provides it with sweetness。
Sugar is one of the key indicators of fruit sweetness and maturity. According to agricultural technicians, this year's watermelon sugar is slightly higher and sweeter than in previous years。
Not only is it sweet, this year, during the local king of gua competition, the watermelons that were grown by the guacamole in the pang townships of the dynasty region have also refreshed the records of successive weights。
Radio station reporter shen li: i'm standing next to this big guy, nearly 100 kilos, who's the heavyweight champion this year, nearly 80 centimeters long and weighs 97. 75 kilos。
Why is the watermelon so sweet
The power of technology, easy logistics, has enabled us to achieve “free watermelon” in the heat of summer, and perhaps many people feel that watermelon is becoming more and more sweet today, and how is that possible? Listen to the expert。
At the new village integrated experimental base at zhengzhou fruit tree school at the chinese agricultural institute, nursery work in autumn watermelon is under way. The temperature outside the shed is approximately 40°c, but it remains at around 27°c。
The chinese academy of agricultural sciences, zhengzhou institute of fruit trees, is an expert in watermelon breeding: in order to produce a new species of watermelon of good quality more quickly and better, our team is growing watermelon in spring, autumn and winter three times a year, while we use molecular markers to support breeding, reducing the breeding cycle of watermelon from six to eight years to two to three years today。
Why is a watermelon sweet
The zhengzhou fruit tree institute of the chinese academy of agricultural sciences, the country's leading research and research institute for the genetic breeding of watermelons, has so far succeeded in producing more than 50 new species of watermelons in the series zhengjin, chinese honey, chinese zhongqing and lechong. At the same time, more than 400 watermelon seed resources have been sequenced at the relevant research institutes, and a high-quality mapping of the entire new generation of watermelon genomes has been completed。
The chinese academy of agricultural sciences, zhengzhou institute of fruit trees, is an expert in the breeding of watermelons: together with the metabolite group data, a complete analysis of watermelons' domestication paths, such as taste, and a comprehensive and systematic analysis of watermelon's “sweet” genes and molecular mechanisms have laid down the leading role of our basic research in the world。
Why are watermelon sweet? Varieties are constantly being updated
Watermelon varieties are constantly being updated and growing techniques are constantly being upgraded by successive generations of scientists。
The chinese academy of agricultural sciences, zhengzhou institute of fruit trees, is an expert in watermelon breeding: the species of watermelon that were selected in the 1970s as conventional hybrids, usually containing about 10 per cent sugar, have now reached about 13 per cent。
Watermelon sugar is up 3% in 50 years, but not as sweet as possible
In 50 years, the sugar ratio of the watermelon increased by at least 3 per cent. Well, isn't the watermelon sweeter
The zhengzhou fruit tree institute of the chinese academy of agricultural sciences is an expert in watermelon breeding: we believe that watermelon can't be too sweet, it can affect its overall taste. Usually, we evaluate whether a watermelon is good and, in addition to high sugar levels, there are a range of quality evaluation indicators, such as whether the wind tastes plentiful, whether the juice is abundant or not, and whether the taste is cuddly。
New varieties are emerging to meet more needs
The demand for watermelons is increasing, both sweet and thin, and high-value, low-head, low-seed and durable。
The chinese academy of agricultural sciences, zhengzhou institute of fruit trees, is an expert in watermelon breeding: many urban families are three or four people, and large watermelons are in short supply for long periods of time, giving them a market. We are studying a new species, also of rainbow watermelons, weighing 2. 0-0. 0-kg, with fruit containing more than five times more beta-carrot than normal red melons, with a very good taste。
Look at the look, listen to the sound
Watermelon's getting better, so what's the trick for people who like watermelon? What time is it better to eat watermelon
Zhengzhou fruit tree research institute, chinese academy of agricultural sciences。
First, look at its appearance, the watermelon's background is brighter and its teeth are clearer, which proves that maturity is better
It is also possible to look at the part of watermelon that is in contact with the ground, where yellow hair is more mature than white watermelon
The sound of a knock can be heard, and if the sound of a knock is as loud as a tap, the maturity of it is still a bit poor; if it's ringing like the chest, it's just as mature; if it's ringing like the belly, it's ripe。
The chinese academy of agricultural sciences, zhengzhou institute of fruit trees, is an expert in watermelon breeding: when we increase the sweetness of this watermelon by 0. 5 per cent, increase the commodity rate by 1 per cent, reduce the rate of fibrosis by less than 1 per cent, and reduce transport losses by 10 per cent, these seemingly modest improvements, multiplied by over 20 million acres in the country, are billions of dollars of additional benefits, millions of tons of tons of lost waste, and tens of millions of consumers' sense of security on the tip of their tongues。
Watermelon is the most popular summer fruit
What's the best time for a watermelon
Lee jing, director of the medical care unit at the central hospital in henan province: we suggest eating in the middle of two meals, two or three hours after breakfast or lunch, or half an hour after exercise. The watermelon is cut open and consumed within four hours of room temperature, and if it does not run out on the same day, it can be frozen in the fridge, even if it does not exceed a day。
