Spring bamboo shoots appear from early March to the end of April, and autumn bamboo shoots appear from October to December. ③High output and good benefits. The yield of thunder bamboo shoots per mu (1 mu = 1/15 hectare, the same below) can reach more than 3,000 kilograms, and the output value per mu is more than 10,000 yuan. ④Bamboo shoots are delicious and nutritious.
