Jingyang rice is produced in Jingyang Town, Jianshi County, Hubei Province. Jingyang Town is located in the southeast of Jianshi County, Hubei Province, with an average elevation of about 400 meters, deep mountains and strange sunshine. Because the planting area is rich in selenium, Jingyang rice contains 500 micrograms of selenium per kilogram. Its nutritional value also contributes to the high price, and it is also a real pure natural healthy green rice, and its growing environment can only be planted in Jingyang Town.
The growth cycle of Jingyang rice is about 200 days, and it is completely harvested manually. No chemical fertilizers and pesticides are used during planting, and the yield is very low. The rice grains are large and thin, and after steaming, the color is green, the fragrance is rich, and the wine is rich, which shows that planting is not easy. The shortage of supply is also the main reason why its price is still rising.
Introduction of other southern rice:
1, Yunnan mixed rice
The most famous rice in Yunnan belongs to Mimo. "Xiaguan Wind, Longling Rain, mangshi Millet and Gaimi" are the four scenic spots in western Yunnan. During the Ming Dynasty, it was also presented as a tribute to the emperor together with jewels and elephants, so it was also called "Tibetan Gong Mi".
2. Zengcheng Simiao Rice
The traditional silk seedling rice varieties were mixed and degraded, and the yield decreased greatly. After cultivation in the 1980s, rice seeds with the same export feeling and taste as the original silk seedling rice were gradually planted. Zengcheng Miao rice is slender and slightly mercerized. The cooked rice is soft and smooth, and it is a natural pair with clay pot rice. The clay pot rice made from it has distinct grains, crispy rice crust and a taste that other rice does not have.
3. Jiangxi Wannian Gong Mi
In Wannian County, the origin of Gong Mi is relatively small, and it only grows in two small villages around Wannian County, because it has extremely high environmental requirements. Located in the hilly and canyon area, it is irrigated by mountain springs, and the water temperature is kept at 15℃ all year round. Because the soil layer is deep and the clay is acidic, it is called cold slurry field.
