Introduction to Rongcheng American Ginseng

In addition, it is located in a hilly area with loose and well ventilated soil, which is very suitable for the growth of American ginseng. But a suitable environment is one aspect, and the careful management of local ginseng farmers is the top priority. The construction of ginseng beds has put in all their efforts, with various decomposed organic fertilizers and scientifically standardized ridges, providing a comfortable breeding ground for the long growth of American ginseng
