——Preface·]—
When we were children, we went up to the mountains to pick wild fruits, and it can be said that it was commonplace to go down to the river to fish, and there were all kinds of wild grasses growing in the countryside.
Among them, there is such a weed, it is very interesting, he bites and explodes, pinched and exploded, it can be said that it is a natural toy of our childhood.
And when we were young, we could often see a large area of this vigorous weed in the depression on the edge of the rice field, this weed grew in patches, all over the mountains, this weed is called cattail.
It is such a kind of cattail that explodes when you bite and fries when you pinch it, in the past, it was a weed that people discarded like a footpath, but now, an acre of cattail can earn 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.
However, Rao is able to bring such high benefits to people, but there are still people who regard it as a pest, seeing this, some people can't help but ask, why in the past, people abandoned the weeds, now the value has increased dozens of times, and it has become unattainable?
And why is it that some people regard such a weed, which can bring high profits to people, as a pest? What is the reason behind the fact that it is considered a pest of grass?
-- Natural toys -- cattails.—
Cattails are an amazing plant, not only do they have unique growth habits and appearance characteristics, but they also have extremely high economic value.
Cattail is a wild plant that usually lives in humid environments such as water's edge, swamps or lakes, and it is a plant that loves light very much, and it needs enough light to ensure normal growth.
The above-ground stems and leaves of the cattail are very stout, slowly tapering upwards, the leaves are strip-shaped, the leaves are smooth**, the cattail plant produces small flowers from May to August, and it also has brown spots on the skin.
Generally, this plant is distributed in the northern region of China, but in addition, it is also distributed in regions such as the Philippines, Japan, and Oceania.
Chinese know cattails very early, as early as ancient China, hard-working Chinese people have a certain understanding of cattails.
As early as in a very famous ancient book in China, there is a record of cattails, in the ancient book "Shennong's Materia Medica" recorded cattails, this plant, cattails are called cattails.
Cattails have a certain status in ancient Chinese medicinal materials, in addition, the book "Tang Materia Medica" has also recorded cattails, cattails not only have ornamental value, it also has a very high economic value.
As early as ancient times, the leaves of cattails were used to make mats, straw hats, and the ancients would extract the organic matter from the cattail roots and convert them into starch.
In addition to this, the dried pollen of cattails can also be used for medicine, the cattail's purong rods can also be used for lighting, and the hair on his female tidbits is called cattail, which is often used by people to make pillow cores.
The shoots of cattails are known as cattails, and in some places they are a rare delicacy that is carefully cooked into a delicious dish. Cattails have been a plant with a special form and ornamental value since ancient times.
——The modern application value of cattails].
Even now, the value of cattails should not be underestimated. Until now, cattails have also had a high economic value, and its roots and seeds can be refined to produce oil.
This oil has a wide range of applications in both industrial and commercial fields, and it can be said that it covers many fields.
Cattails are considered a valuable cash crop in many regions, and cattails are now widely cultivated in China, and cattails also have an ecological role in absorbing and storing large amounts of carbon, helping to slow down the trend of global warming.
Cattails can also absorb and purify water quality, absorb pollutants, and protect the ecological balance of waters, in some areas, cattails grow too quickly, affecting the growth and survival of other aquatic plants, and destroying the ecological balance of waters.
——The reason why cattails are called "weeds".
Seeing this, I believe that many people have a certain understanding of the value of cattails, and according to this situation, it is not unreasonable that an acre of cattails can earn 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.
After all, cattails can be widely used in various industrial manufacturing fields, and there is a very high ecological value, it seems that cattails are indeed a priceless weed, but why would anyone regard this priceless weed as a pest?
What is the reason behind the fact that it is considered a pest of weeds? In fact, in some areas, people regard cattails as pests, mainly because cattails are a plant that grows too quickly, and can be reproduced in large quantities in rivers, lakes and other waters.
And the abundance of cattails must also mean that the growth of other aquatic plants in this area of water is inhibited.
As we all know, nature is an environment that pays attention to the balance of all things, and if a species grows too vigorously and is not suppressed by heaven and earth, then it will inevitably cause ecological imbalance, and cattails are exactly this kind of plant.
Because cattails reproduce in large quantities in rivers and lakes, the growth of other aquatic plants is greatly inhibited, and under such conditions, the ecological balance of the water area will be greatly damaged.
In addition, the roots and seeds of cattails contain certain poisons, which may cause certain health hazards if people, if humans or other animals accidentally eat them, or if humans do not process them properly in their use.
Therefore, proper measures need to be taken when handling cattails, and people tend to be careful when handling cattails. These practices are done to prevent people from using cattails to cause harm to the environment and human beings.
Although cattails are regarded as pests by some people, with the progress of society, people have begun to control the cultivation and growth of cattails.
In order to protect the balance of ecological waters and human health, people will carry out scientific management and control of cattails when planting cattails to ensure that their growth rate and number will not have an adverse impact on the environment and human beings.
When planting cattails, people will control the planting density, arrange the planting time reasonably, or choose the right varieties, and strengthen field management.
Cattails are now able to bring huge economic benefits to people, and people have also prevented it against its bad root of destroying the ecological balance.
——Conclusion·]—
Cattail is a plant with special morphological and ornamental value, and also has certain economic and ecological value.
Although it has potential harm, as long as we manage it properly and use it scientifically, we can still achieve a win-win situation of ecological and economic benefits.
