What effects does Dendrobium have?
Dendrobium is a valuable Chinese herbal medicine in China. Dendrobium has a balanced and rich medicinal composition and a long medicinal history. It has a certain therapeutic effect on various chronic pharyngitis, gastrointestinal diseases, eye diseases, diabetes and even cancer.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that Dendrobium is sweet in taste and slightly cold in nature, and has the functions of benefiting stomach, promoting fluid production, nourishing yin and clearing heat, moistening lung and kidney, improving eyesight and strengthening waist. Dendrobium is also a good health care product used by modern people to nourish yin. There are six varieties of medicinal Dendrobium recorded in Pharmacopoeia, namely Dendrobium nobile, Dendrobium candidum and Dendrobium nobile, among which Dendrobium nobile is the most precious.
Dendrobium is a herbaceous plant of Dendrobium of Orchidaceae, also known as black knot grass, belonging to Dendrobium of Orchidaceae, a perennial epiphytic herb of Orchidaceae and a precious wild medicinal plant. Dendrobium can be divided into dozens of species, such as yellow grass, golden hairpin and whip, among which Dendrobium candidum and Dendrobium nobile are the best. Dendrobium nobile is one of the commonly used traditional Chinese medicines, which was recorded as early as Shennong Herbal Classic and listed as the top grade. It has the effects of nourishing stomach, promoting fluid production, nourishing yin, clearing away heat, and improving eyesight, and can be used for treating yin injury and fluid deficiency, dry mouth and polydipsia, anorexia and retching, asthenic heat after illness, and blurred vision. So with the decrease of Dendrobium nobile production, how will the price change? What are the determinants of Dendrobium nobile price?
First of all, due to the special growth environment, the yield of Dendrobium has not been high. It takes about three years to harvest in Yunnan, Zhejiang and other places, and the yield per mu is 300 to 400 kilograms. However, the planting time in Raoping is only two years at most, and the yield per mu has also increased to about 600 kg, thanks to the local suitable climate conditions and the latest cultivation techniques.
The price has been raised. After artificial cultivation technology solved the problem of small supply, the market sought after it in succession. Many people pursue Dendrobium planting, capsule making and other technologies, and many people want to speculate. In the United States, Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, its price is as high as 3,000 to 5,000 US dollars per kilogram, and the domestic sales price of pure organic Dendrobium has exceeded 20,000 yuan per kilogram.
The market is in chaos. Because of the soaring price, many people outside the traditional Chinese medicine circle began to fry Dendrobium. At present, there are many chaos in the Dendrobium market.
For these reasons, the price of Dendrobium is also high, ranging from 30,000 yuan per kilogram to 6,543.8+10,000 yuan.
