Can Ganba be planted artificially?
Ganba is a rare wild edible fungus endemic to Yunnan Province. Ganba is a rare wild edible fungus endemic to Yunnan Province, which can't grow in other provinces in China and abroad. Scientific name: Embroidered cocci, also known as opposite flower fungus, horse tooth fungus, etc. It grows among pine trees in central and western Yunnan. Produced in the rainy season in July and August, it has not yet been artificially cultivated. Its ugly, black with a layer of white. But the taste is fresh and fragrant, which is the top grade of wild edible fungi.
How to increase the output of Ganba bacteria
Up to now, artificial culture has not been realized. Scientists have tried to dig all the "fungus nest" and soil cover into the laboratory for research and cultivation. As a result, every year, no fungus can emerge from the "fungus nest". So far, this problem has not been solved. Although it can't be cultivated artificially, we managed to get along with artificial intervention to make it more productive and high-yielding. The scientific and technological personnel started a new experiment. After adopting artificial management and protection measures such as setting fences, closing hillsides to cultivate bacteria, adjusting the thickness of mulch, the canopy density and establishing a management and protection shed for nursing during the growing season of Ganba, the yield and benefit of wild Ganba really increased significantly.
Distribution origin
Ganba bacteria are mainly distributed in the central Yunnan Plateau, and the main producing areas are Kunming, Yuxi, Qujing and Chuxiong in Yunnan.
Followed by Simao, Lijiang, Baoshan and Dali in Yunnan, and a small amount in western Guizhou and southern Sichuan, as well as parts of Hunan and Hubei.
market prospect
Because of its high protein and low fat, and many functions, edible fungi have become an ideal health food for patients with arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases, and are called one of the "top ten health foods" in the world today. According to the statistics provided by Kunming Customs, in 2003, the export volume of edible fungi in Yunnan Province was as high as 9,563 tons, and the export earned 65.76 million US dollars, increasing by 43.2% and 52.3% respectively over the same period of 2002, making it the second largest export agricultural product in Yunnan Province.
