What nectar plants are there in Guangxi?

There are two kinds of nectar plants in Guangdong Province: wild and artificial. Wild honey sources are mainly distributed in mountainous areas, and there are more than 100 species, among which the most important ones are podophyllum, linden and aconite. The nectar source plants of artificially planted plants are mainly fruit trees, covering an area of more than 6.5438+0 million hectares, mainly litchi and longan, as well as oranges, plums, grapefruit, persimmons, bananas, pineapples and miscellaneous fruits. In addition, there is a large area of rice and nuclear forest in the province, a certain area of rubber forest and coconut trees in Leizhou Peninsula, and a small amount of rape in the mountainous area of northern Guangdong. There are also some artificially planted green flowers and trees all over the province.

From the four seasons, honey sources account for 30% in spring, 20% in summer, less than 65,438+00% in autumn and more than 40% in winter. There are only three production seasons in a year, litchi and longan in spring, juniper and tallow in summer, and nightshade and tallow in winter. There are only some auxiliary honey sources in autumn.

Litchi is mainly distributed in the south of the Tropic of Cancer, Guangzhou, Gaozhou, Huazhou and Dianbai in western Guangdong, Dongguan and Shenzhen in the Pearl River Delta, and Puning, Huilai and Huidong in eastern Guangdong are the most abundant. Longan has the largest planting area in Gaozhou, Huazhou and Huadu. Citrus and plum are planted all over the province, among which the old planting areas such as Chaoshan Plain, Xinhui, Sihui and Huazhou, as well as northern Guangdong, Meixian and Huiyang have the largest planting areas. Rape is also planted in Yingde, Shaoguan, Wengyuan, Ruyuan and Qujiang in northern Guangdong. Bananas are mainly distributed in the Pearl River Delta, with the largest planting areas in Dongguan, Shunde and Gaozhou. Eucalyptus is planted all over the province, and Leizhou Peninsula and other places have the largest area, mostly artificial shelterbelts.

In recent years, eucalyptus urophylla, also known as eucalyptus globulus and fast-growing eucalyptus, has been planted in Shaoguan, Meizhou, Qingyuan and Zhanjiang. It is a new strain introduced from Australia and Southeast Asia, which is mainly used in the paper industry. Its wood is used to make high-grade paper and can be used for 5-6 years. It blooms after 4 years of planting, and it blooms in mid-September every year, lasting 1 month, which is similar to the flowering period of eucalyptus tenuifolia. The characteristic taste of honey with caudate leaves is not much different from that of other nuclear trees, and the powder secretion is not much.

In mountainous and hilly areas, there are a large area of secondary forests, and a large number of main nectar plants such as Chinese tallow, osmanthus fragrans and nightshade are growing. The suburbs of Guangzhou, Huizhou, Heyuan, Zhaoqing, Qingyuan and yingde city are the most widely distributed areas.
