In the past, many farmers would plant some thorny trees in front of their houses, because the fruit of this tree could be used to wash clothes, wash hair, or taste Chinese medicinal herbs.
However, in the past ten years, many farmers have chosen to cut it down, and many villages can no longer find a single tree, which is the soap pod tree, also known as the soap horn tree.
For many knowledgeable people, although soap horn is also a Chinese herbal medicine, it has certain economic value. However, the most valuable thing is the thorn on the soap pod tree - the soap horn thorn! But it's not so easy to make money with soap horn thorns.
A few years ago, a farmer in Shaanxi heard that planting soap pod trees could make money, so he bought more than 50,000 saponaria seedlings from Luoyang, Shanxi and other places, and planted more than 60 acres at once. I thought I could make a lot of money, because the soap horns in the market could sell for more than 100 yuan a kilogram.
Who knows, after three years, the tree grows bigger and bigger, but there is no knot, or the knot thorn is very small, no one wants it at all, 3 years lost more than 400,000 yuan, even the land contract fee can not be paid.
Soap horn stinging spicy, warm; return to the liver, stomach meridians; can play a role in disinfection, prolactination, especially for the treatment of some skin diseases, the effect is very good. For pregnant women, the appropriate use of some soap horn thorns can be well breastped. Soap horn thorns can also improve the body's immunity, but it is important not to use them indiscriminately.
In addition, the soap horn thorn also has the effect of reducing swelling and toxin, and can promote the discharge of pus from the carbuncle carbuncle, so it can often be used to treat the initial onset of carbuncles or pus for a long time without ulceration, which has a good effect.
Soap thorn into the liquor soaked, can effectively improve cervical spine disease, of course, can also be taken with other Chinese herbs, such as with pangolin has been paired, can make the toxin quickly discharged, and soap horn thorn and honeysuckle together, can play a role in activating blood stasis.
However, for people with gastrointestinal diseases, often after taking, it will lead to unnecessary impact on the gastrointestinal mucosa, and may even lead to serious impact on the central nervous system, at this time we should pay attention to, in general, it is not recommended that people with gastrointestinal diseases eat soap horn thorns.
Soap horn thorns can be planted in most parts of the country, and in the case of better water and fertilizer conditions, "soap horn thorns" will grow better in the northern region.
At present, the price of soap horn thorn seedlings is about 2-3 yuan / plant. The planting of saponaria seedlings will generally have a large harvest after 3 years, and one mu of soap horn trees can produce 150-200 kg of dry soap horn thorns and 600-800 kg of dry soap horns.
In addition, higher harvesting and processing costs also need to be considered, now most of the soap horn prick harvesting is still mainly artificial, artificial harvesting less than 7-8 kg a day, more than 10 kg, and also need to be sliced and dried, resulting in high costs.
Soap horn thorn was originally also dominated by wild resources, the whole country has production, the production area is mainly Henan, Hubei, Anhui, Shaanxi, Gansu and other places, of which Henan, Hubei production is slightly more, the best quality.
Due to the depletion of the resources of wild saponaria thorn in recent years, the market of saponaria thorn before 2013 was on the rise. Especially between 2014 and 2015, it remained at 140 yuan / kg, and the high price lasted for two years.
But since the beginning of 2016, the market price of soap horn thorns has fallen all the way. Today, the market demand growth is slower, the market in recent times weak and slippery, the current soap horn thorn price of small unified goods between 25-26 yuan, wild large unified goods 95-100 yuan.
Therefore, it is recommended that farmers who want to grow soap horn thorns to make a fortune must consider it before buying seedlings!
