Basic introduction of Xingyi ginger

Xingyi ginger has medium branching roots and stems, arranged irregularly and tightly, with short internodes; Ginger ball spindle shaped, smooth skin, light yellow; Ginger meat is yellow in color and has a bright luster; The meat is tender, with little fiber, rich aroma, and a strong spicy taste

Soil landform Xingyi ginger planting area is located in the transitional zone of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, which is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. From a geographical perspective, the ginger production area is located in a relatively typical karst landform area; Most of its surface components are sandy residual weathered materials, with a thickness of several meters to more than ten meters, forming thicker sandy loam soil. This type of sandy soil has a moderate surface sand viscosity, loose soil, good tillage and air permeability, which is beneficial for the growth of crop seedlings and root development. The soil is weakly acidic or neutral, with a pH value between 5 and 7, and is rich in various mineral elements such as selenium, zinc, iron, and calcium. The soil is fertile, with a high degree of soil maturation, a deep plowing layer, suitable permeability, strong soil and fertility preservation, and moderate to high fertility, which is very conducive to the later growth of ginger roots and stems. The Xingyi ginger planting area belongs to a subtropical monsoon humid climate with an average annual temperature of 15 ℃~18 ℃, 1400 hours of sunshine per year, rainfall of 1300mm~1600mm, an average annual accumulated temperature of over 5000 ℃, and a frost free period of 275~334 days. There is no scorching heat in summer, no severe cold in winter, with simultaneous rain and heat. The frost free period is long, and the temporal changes of light, heat, and water resources match well with the growth period of crops. Especially from September to October, when there is sufficient light and a large temperature difference between day and night, it is the key period for ginger to form yield. Light and temperature conditions are more conducive to the growth and development of ginger. Xingyi ginger prefers warm and humid environmental conditions and is not tolerant to low temperature frost. It begins to sprout at temperatures above 16 ℃, grows at temperatures between 20 ℃ and 25 ℃ for seedlings, grows at temperatures between 25 ℃ and 28 ℃ for stems and leaves, and stops growing below 15 ℃. The temperature in Xingyi Ginger Reserve is generally above 15 ℃ throughout the year, which is very suitable for the growth of ginger and has a relatively high yield. Hydrological condition There are many rivers in Xingyi ginger producing area. There are 76 large and small rivers except Nanpan River, all of which belong to Nanpan River water system of the Pearl River basin. Xingyi City is also an important water source ecological protection area, with multiple lakes such as Wanfeng Lake, Xingxi Lake, Mulang Lake, and Weishan Lake, storing 10.3 billion cubic meters of water. The ecological environment in this area has always been well protected and has not been affected by industrial pollution. Therefore, the irrigation water for Xingyi ginger, with clear and pollution-free river water, has laid a solid foundation for the formation of excellent quality of Xingyi ginger
