Recently, Brother Li is a little depressed, the reason why Brother Li is depressed is that a bull raised by his family has actually appeared unwilling to see the cow, to know that the emergence of this situation is equivalent to the bull has been "scrapped", Brother Li's desire to make money from this bull is difficult to achieve, so it is impossible for Brother Li not to be depressed.
Two days ago, Brother Li chatted with an old farmer about his own bull, and when Brother Li finished describing the problems in his own bull, the old farmer opened his mouth, and the old farmer said: Have you not heard the saying "Don't be afraid of bulls and don't be 'obsessed', feed more snake rice can do it"? Wouldn't it be okay for you to go find some snake rice and feed the bulls for a while?
"What? Do we still have such a saying in the countryside? What is snake rice? Brother Li asked incomprehensibly.
The old farmer said: Yes! We do have such a saying in the countryside! As for saying that you don't know what snake rice is, I can give you a nagging.
Next, the old farmer began to explain to Brother Li about the snake rice. The old farmer said:
Snake rice is also known as wild fennel, cnidium monnieri, cnidium monnieri, snake beads, wild radish seeds, etc., its scientific name should be called cnidium monnieri.
Snake rice is a perennial herb of the family Umbellifera. This plant has more stems, all stems are born from rhizomes, the highest stem is up to about 60 cm high, its stem is quadrangular, the stem has a shallow groove, generally purple-red, the stem has a very dense white flat bristle, the lower part of the stem bristles are relatively sparse, and the internodes of the stem are much longer than the leaves.

According to the measurement, snake rice contains more volatile oil components, in the volatile oil mainly contains pine thin, isoa valerianate dragon brain ester, parsley phenol methyl ether, dihydro eugenol, bergamot lactone, cnidin, isoinces, isosepine, isooprecone, colombian lactone, dipterosterone acetate, limonene, 3-sittanol and other components.
In the past, bull farmers were particularly fond of feeding bulls with snake rice. Before there are any problems with the bull's body, the bull farmer will take 25-30 grams of snake rice grains every 7 days and mash them into the concentrate to feed the bulls, as long as they insist on feeding in this way, the bulls will not appear "obsessed". And once the bull has appeared not "obsessed" phenomenon, the bull farmers will use snake rice grain 35-40 grams mashed and mixed into the concentrate to feed the bull, and, once a day, after 30-40 days of continuous feeding, the bull is not "obsessed" Phenomenon will disappear!
When Elder Brother Li heard the old farmer say this, he immediately dragged the old farmer to the wild to look for snake rice. Later, I heard Brother Li say that after more than 40 days of using snake rice to feed the bulls, the bulls were really "obsessed" with the cows!
