Is the yield of yacon high?
The yield of yacon is very high, the actual yield per mu can reach more than 8000 kg, and the highest yield can reach 10000 kg, but the specific yield is related to the planting time and climate of the plant.
How to plant yacon with high yield
1, land selection and land preparation
Yacon is best planted in sandy soil with convenient irrigation and drainage. Before planting, about 4000-6000 kg of farm manure should be applied per mu, and appropriate amount of quicklime can be added to prevent underground pests.
2. Planting
You can plant 1 100 yacon per mu. When the seedlings grow to 20 cm high, water them and weed them. When the weather is dry, the amount of watering should be increased appropriately, and drainage should be paid attention to in rainy season.
3, plastic pruning
After the yacon tree survives, it can be pruned and all the branches and long branches that are too dense can be cut off. This means that there is no need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides in the later stage, but plants that grow too weak should be properly watered with manure.
4. Dig.
The excavation can be carried out around June+10 in 5438. After the flowers wither, the yacon will be stored in the cellar, and the stems and leaves of the plants can also be used as feed.
