About Garlic China by Garlic China https://padlet.com/GarlicChina/About Known worldwide for the quality and pungent flavor of its garlic, China stands as its largest producer and contributes some 77 percent of the supply spanning the globe. Most garlic in China is grown in Shandong Province, which offers an ideal temperate climate for production of flavorful Allium Sativum varieties. China’s garlic is known for the cleanliness of its white bulb thanks to the hand cultivation still practiced by many farmers instead of mechanical, large-scale methods. Pesticides are not utilized in production, as insects are not a major factor and, indeed, the juice of the bulb is marketed as an organic insecticide. One technique used by China’s garlic farmers involves the use of clear plastic ground covering after tilling, which prevents weeds from growing during the hot summer months. It also prevents the accumulation of disease-causing organisms. Weeds that do make it through are removed using hoes. Much of the garlic grown meets organic certification standards. en-us 2017-04-14 08:17:00 UTC 2017-07-14 03:40:15 UTC hello@padlet.com GarlicChina https://padlet.com/GarlicChina/About/wish/177222239 2017-06-22 16:02:40 UTC https://padlet.com/GarlicChina/About/wish/177222239 GarlicChina https://padlet.com/GarlicChina/About/wish/177222271 2017-06-22 16:02:59 UTC https://padlet.com/GarlicChina/About/wish/177222271 Garlic from China and Other Countries Has Significant Health Benefits GarlicChina https://padlet.com/GarlicChina/About/wish/177843340 In China, farmers use hand cultivation to produce a bright white variety of garlic that is thought by many to be the best-tasting of any form of the vegetable around the world.
