The 10-year old tree has a relatively high yield of eucommia bark, which can be partially peeled for the first time. Then every 4 to 5 years peeling is more appropriate, can maintain the normal growth potential of the tree, but also can effectively increase the production of dulcimer bark.
ExpandedThe peeling of eucommia, the traditional method of peeling is to cut down the tree and then peeling, eucommia to 20 to 30 years when the fastest growing, if cut down before this age, reduces the economic benefits; if you wait until the tree grows into the tree and then cut down the peeling, it is too late to gain the benefits of the time. since the 1970s, the study of the success of live tree ring peeling or peeling method, greatly improving the economic benefits.
The peeling time is roughly in early May to mid-July, due to different climatic conditions around the world, should be tested around the world, choose the best peeling period. According to the ring peeling test on the cultivated eucommia in Shenyang area, harvesting in May and June, the new skin formation is fast, the skin layer is uniform and the color is the same;?
