Konjac is planted in ponds or ditches, and taro is planted obliquely. After the upper part is covered with farm manure and soil, it is required to cover the soil surface with a layer of pine wool or straw with a thickness of 3-5 cm, preferably without soil. This can not only keep the soil loose and moist, but also prevent drought and weeds.
