The history of its cultivation can be traced back to India in 3000 BC. my country was also the first country to cultivate it. It then gradually developed westward and was introduced to southern Europe in the Middle Ages. There is also a theory that it originated in Nigeria, West Africa, about 3,500 years ago. During its growth, it is best to use paddy soil and ensure the temperature and humidity range.

1. Origin

Its cultivation history can be traced back to India in 3000 BC. my country is also a country with a long history of planting rice. Rice has been planted in the Yangtze River Basin of China for 7,000 years. . Later, with the spread, it gradually developed westward and was introduced to southern Europe in the Middle Ages. There is also a theory that it originated in Nigeria, West Africa, about 3,500 years ago. It is now distributed in a wide range of areas, generally in tropical, temperate, and semi-tropical coastal plains. In my country, it is generally concentrated in the Yangtze River Basin and other areas in the south.

1 . Soil: It does not have very strict requirements for the substrate. It can be planted in soft-drained soil, but paddy soil is best.

2. Temperature: There are certain requirements for temperature. The minimum temperature for seedlings to germinate needs to be 10-12°C. The most suitable temperature is 28-32°C. If the temperature is too low, differentiation will occur. If the time is extended, below 20℃ or above 40℃, pollination will be seriously affected.

3. Humidity: It needs humidity in the environment where it grows. For support, the humidity must be high to extract the ears. The relative humidity is most suitable to be maintained at 50-90%.
