Potatoes have high nutritional value, and vitamin C is four times that of apples.
Potato planting is distributed in various areas of China, including Guizhou and Hubei in the south, Gansu, Ningxia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Shandong, Inner Mongolia and Northeast China in the north. There are all kinds of varieties, and there are different ways to keep seeds, process them and eat them.
I saw a news last night that a potato buyer in Xi 'an transferred a truck driver from Shaanxi to pull potatoes. The driver traveled 2000 miles to Xi 'an, but was deducted 1 10,000 yuan for being late. I calculated that it is only over 500 kilometers from Lan County, a potato planting area in Shaanxi, to An. Is it a potato from Inner Mongolia? Calculated by kilometers, Xi to Jining is exactly 1000 kilometers. In addition, this Xi 'an potato buyer must have a reason to pull Inner Mongolia potatoes further and further.
So as China, which occupies 1/3 of the potato planting area in the world, which potato is the best? Planting, processing and sales. Whose cow is this? Listen to my introduction.
Fresh potatoes
1. Why does the nutritional value of potatoes become the fourth staple food?
Potatoes are an indispensable food for northerners, especially in rural areas, and potatoes have long been a staple food, while in cities, potatoes also change with the coarsening of food. Now people pay attention to it, only to find that the nutrition of potatoes is not generally high, and its vitamin C content is actually four times that of apples.
The nutritional value of potatoes can be divided into three parts:
1, high potassium
Potatoes contain potassium 100 mg per 100 g, which can protect myocardium, maintain heartbeat rhythm and have obvious antihypertensive effect.
2, high dietary fiber
From the picture, we can all see the fineness of the fiber, which is distributed in all parts of the potato body. Potato cellulose accounts for 8% of the total, which can make human intestinal organisms grow and develop, promote intestinal peristalsis and maintain intestinal moisture. It is an excellent dietary fiber food.
3, vitamin C is high.
The content of vitamin C in potatoes is four times that of apples, reaching 45%. Ascorbic acid in vitamin C can prevent colon cancer and lung cancer.
And why did potatoes become the fourth staple food in China?
One is that the planting area has increased year after year. As far as I know, potatoes were only 80 million mu in 20 17, nearly doubling in just three years. This is the result of the country's emphasis on potato cultivation. And now the quality of potatoes is really impressive, whether fried, roasted, roasted or steamed, they all have different tastes. Coupled with the output adjustment of rice, wheat and corn, it is possible to increase the planting area of potato, which is also the reason why potato has become the fourth staple food in China.
The potatoes have blossomed.
Second, the distribution of potatoes in South China
Potato planting in South China is relatively rare, because it is a warm zone with relatively high annual average temperature, which is suitable for planting crops in two or three seasons. The soil is acidic and sticky, so it is really not suitable for planting potatoes in large quantities.
But you can't say absolutely, in China, Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Yunnan, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan and other places, potatoes are really planted, and it is two crops, and potatoes are inoculated after the middle rice and late rice are harvested. Among them, small potatoes in Enshi, Hubei Province, have swept the country in the past two years, making people feel a kind of fresh air. In the seventh part below, we will talk about Enshi potatoes.
Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Chongqing in the south have great changes in altitude, complex terrain and abundant rainfall, so we can find out the areas suitable for planting potatoes, because they can be planted twice a year, and the output is also very large.
Potato harvest
Third, the distribution of potatoes in the north.
The north mainly refers to the northwest, north China and northeast China. The temperature in these areas is lower and colder than in the south, and the frost-free period is short. Generally speaking, crops are harvested once a year.
Northeast China is a high corn producing area, Henan is a high wheat producing area, and Shaanxi is a high fruit producing area. Not to mention here, potato cultivation is concentrated in Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shandong and Shanxi.
Judging from the planting scale in recent years, there are 3.6 million mu in Dingxi, Gansu, 3.4 million mu in Yulin, Shaanxi and 465,438+10,000 mu in Wulanchabu, Inner Mongolia, which are relatively large counties and cities in northern China. In the development of new varieties, Tengzhou, Shandong Province has 300,000 mu, which is a county and city with good potato cooperative economy. From the perspective of potato tourism economy and food culture, there are 350,000 mu in Lanxian County, Shanxi Province, which is a distinctive potato producing area.
In terms of potato planting technology, Wulanchabu City, Inner Mongolia is the most advanced. One is because its soil is sandy, with plenty of sunshine and large temperature difference between day and night; Second, the land is flat and suitable for large-scale planting; Third, the local government has integrated potato resources in place, and growers all over the country have invested in planting potatoes; Fourthly, the technology of sprinkler irrigation and drip irrigation has changed rapidly, and it has become the leader of potato planting in China.
The good news is that the annual national potato conference is held in Wulanchabu almost every year. This year, due to the epidemic situation, it was held online, becoming the national 2020 Potato Cloud Internet Merchants Conference, which will open this month 1 1 (next Wednesday). If you want to participate, you can find the entrance from online search, or you can pay attention to my private letter and ask my entrance together.
Dingxi potato
Fourth, all of them? Land of potatoes? Who is authentic?
Interesting to say, what can you do? Hometown? There is only one crop, but as potatoes, there are actually many? China, the land of potatoes? Title area, but everyone has to admit that others deserve it. Let me give you a brief introduction.
Ningxia Xiji 1
February 2004 was named? China, the land of potatoes? Xiji County, with a population of only 470,000, has 3.2 million mu of cultivated land. Is a pure agricultural county, the main agricultural products are potatoes. Xiji county has high altitude, low temperature and loose soil. In 2003, it was listed as one of the top ten high-quality pollution-free agricultural products bases in Ningxia, which was named earlier in China? China, the land of potatoes? County. It can mainly introduce new seed potatoes for planting, and there are also many starch and vermicelli production enterprises.
2. Dingxi of Gansu Province
Dingxi city was identified as? China, the land of potatoes? The exact date is unknown, but it is well known. Dingxi, Le Tong is the east gate of Gansu? Longzhong? The climate is very good. Traditionally, Chinese medicine villages and potatoes, especially potatoes, have high starch content. Now Dingxi has the largest number of fans in the northwest.
Dingxi potato? The trademark was registered in 2008, and now it has become a well-known trademark in China. Therefore, Dingxi potatoes can not be sent to all parts of the country without the guidance of the government.
3. Tengzhou, Shandong Province
In 2000, Tengzhou, Shandong Province was named as? China, the land of potatoes? The title is mainly because Tengzhou has carried out technical transformation on potatoes at that time, which made it the largest area in China to use virus-free seed potatoes at that time, and the potato yield of 10,000 Jin per mu was also achieved first from Tengzhou. There are national potato geographical indications.
Drip Irrigation Technology of Potato in Wulanchabu City
4. Wulanchabu, Inner Mongolia
Approved by the Ministry of Agriculture in 2008? Wulanchabu potato? Wulanchabu, as a geographical indication of agricultural products, was awarded by China Food Industry Association in 2009? China Potato Capital? The title of.
Wulanchabu city is located on the edge of desert, with a semi-arid continental monsoon climate in the middle temperate zone, cold and windy in winter, less precipitation, abundant sunshine and sandy soil, with a long history. Oil cotton, yam (potato), sheepskin coat? Therefore, potato cultivation is the main agricultural product. With the tilt of the national policy to Inner Mongolia, Wulanchabu City first seized the opportunity to build sprinkler irrigation potato planting, and in recent years, it seized the opportunity to develop drip irrigation potato planting, which greatly reduced the planting cost and improved the potato quality. Now it is a well-deserved hometown of potatoes, attracting worldwide attention.
5. Wuchuan County, Inner Mongolia
Potatoes in Wuchuan County, Inner Mongolia are famous for their fine packaging and publicity and the success of the No.1 seed potato. It has successively supplied potatoes for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Paralympic Games and the 20 1 1 Shanghai World Expo, and became famous in one fell swoop. 20 15 registered successfully? Wuchuan potato? But exported to many provinces in China.
6. Weining in Guizhou
In 2008, the Potato Professional Committee of China Food Industry Association awarded Weining? China Southern Potato Town? The title of "Hometown of Potatoes" is the only title area in southern China.
Weining belongs to Bijie City, Guizhou Province, with subtropical monsoon climate, abundant sunshine, abundant rainfall, large temperature difference between day and night, good ecological environment, no other local characteristic industries, good potato quality and large size. Weining potato is a favorite potato product in southern China.
From these few? China, the land of potatoes? From the point of view, I have to say that they all have their own characteristics, such as long-term planting, processing-oriented, potato planting, new technology development, taking into account the climate requirements of the north and south. I think this is also about potatoes as agricultural products. Let's judge who is better in the future.
Potato processing
Five, potato processing
Potato processing is a relatively large project. Today, there are large-scale potato starch factories and vermicelli factories in Xiji, Ningxia and Dingxi, Gansu, and the processing industry is relatively prosperous. Other areas are relatively scattered. Relatively speaking, China's potato processing industry is still monotonous, far from the processing level of developed countries, which is related to the eating habits of China citizens.
I won't go into details here, but I will specifically analyze potato processing in the future.
Tourism Economy of Potato in Lanxian County
Sixth, potato meal, tourism genus? Lan county?
Lanxian potatoes? 20 14 successfully registered geographical agricultural products, belonging to the rising star of potato family. In fact, Lan County belongs to the northwest of Shanxi Province. Together with Jingle County, Wuzhai County and Shenchi County, it is the largest potato planting base in Shanxi, and its products are very famous in this province. However, through the transformation of agricultural production, new potato varieties were not grafted in time and were replaced by new cash crops such as millet for a period of time.
Under the leadership of the county government, Lan County planted 200,000 mu of pollution-free potatoes, which spread all over the country through potato banquets in spring, summer and autumn, and organized potato flower tourism, which promoted the local economic development. It is an unusual potato economic model, which is worth learning and emulating everywhere.
20 19 Enshi national potato conference venue
7. Why do Enshi small potatoes bloom differently?
20 19 national potato conference was held in Enshi, Hubei province, which opened a different road for selenium-enriched small potatoes in Enshi. Because Enshi was originally a selenium-rich area in China, right? World Selenium Capital? ,? The only proven independent selenium deposit in the world? In this area. Potatoes planted in Enshi naturally contain selenium, which can bring a unique reputation to Enshi potatoes.
In the past two years, Enshi selenium-enriched small potatoes have been independently packaged and sold online through concept guidance, and have formed a scale. At the same time, building a potato garden to guide the tourism economy is related to Shanxi? Lanxian potatoes? Grasping the leading area of potato economy caused by individual characteristics.
Enshi potato Shang garden
This paper briefly introduces the distribution of potatoes in China and the general situation of main potato products, and briefly introduces the processing of potatoes, especially the two potato economic zones of Lanxian County, Shanxi Province and Enshi, Hubei Province. After potatoes were designated as the four staple foods by the country, people in the industry have been actively looking for breakthroughs in planting area, yield per mu, planting technology and extending economy, which should be praised by Chinese people. As the table food of our people, potatoes have their own tastes and preferences. Whichever you like, please leave a message and tell us.
