CATDOLL : CATDOLL: What are the methods of breeding cicadas?

1. What are the methods of breeding cicadas?

1. Breeding site: Cicadas are mainly bred under forests. Various fruit trees and timber trees can meet their growth needs. There is no need to invest in building sites and houses, and there is no need to purchase other breeding facilities. Forest resources are abundant. Generally, it is difficult to interplant crops under fruit trees and other trees that are more than three years old. Cicada breeding makes use of the space under trees and grows by sucking the sap of tree roots. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone to develop breeding without affecting the growth of trees. The entire breeding process does not require feeding management, epidemic prevention, etc., and does not occupy labor. Under the condition of solving the technology and sales of cicada breeding, cicada breeding is a good project for laid-off workers to develop re-employment and farmers to engage in the tertiary industry.

2. Egg collection: Egg collection is done after the cicada lays eggs in autumn, usually around the seventh month of the lunar calendar. The cicada uses the small thorns on its tail to pierce the tender branches of one year old trees and lay eggs in the branches, mostly on juicy branches such as fruit trees. After laying eggs, the branches will dry up, so most branches with green lower ends and dry tips have cicada eggs.

3. Post-harvest processing: After collecting the branches with cicada eggs, remove the dry leaves, cut off the two ends, bundle thirty branches into a bundle, spread a layer of sand on the bottom of a large washing basin, and put the bundled branches upright in the basin. Keep the temperature at 28-34 degrees and the humidity moist. Spray it when it is dry. Use a sprayer to spray the branches until they are thoroughly wet.

4. Hatching: The larvae will hatch in about fifteen days. At this time, you will see some larvae crawling up and down on the branches. When about 20% of the larvae are hatched, they should be buried. The burial pit should be selected in an area with many fine and soft hair roots so that the larvae can absorb nutrients from the roots. It is best to choose a plot where honeysuckle is planted. In a plastic pot that is 10 cm long, 40 cm wide and 20 cm high, spread 5 to 10 cm thick fine dry sand on the bottom, place the egg branches in bundles vertically or horizontally on it, and constantly spray mist with a small sprayer to maintain high humidity in the air around the golden cicada egg branches so that excess water droplets are absorbed in the fine sand at the bottom. During the hatching period, the hatching of the golden cicada eggs should be checked continuously. When a small number of golden cicada larvae are found to be active, the branches can be placed in the breeding site together with the fine sand for planting.

3. How many years does it take to breed cicadas? Attached are the breeding methods

It takes about 3 years to breed cicadas, because the nymphs, or larvae, of cicadas need to live underground for 2-3 years. Breeding methods: 1. Provide nutritious forests: cultivate seedlings of broad-leaved trees and bury branches with eggs at the roots of trees in the net room. 2. Provide high-quality feed: regularly add some root plants, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes and yams, to provide energy for the growth of cicadas. 3. Provide a livable environment: the place where cicada eggs are buried should be sunny, frost-proof, pollution-free, and have appropriate humidity.

2. Introduction to Zhiliao

(1) Cicadas are cicadas, a species of insect in the family Cicadidae. Cicadas use their front legs for digging. They will burrow out of the soil at dusk or at night, and then grasp the bark to molt. Male cicadas have sound organs on their abdomens that can continuously make sharp sounds. Female cicadas do not make sounds, but have hearing organs on their abdomens. Cicada larvae live in the soil and feed on plant roots, while adults eat plant juices. Cicadas undergo incomplete metamorphosis, molting multiple times from eggs to nymphs, and transforming directly into adults without becoming pupae.

(2) In recent years, there have been cases of catching cicadas for food in Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, Hebei, Anhui and other places in my country. Since cicada larvae survive for a long time underground before breaking out of the ground, large-scale capture has reduced the number of cicadas. Cicadas are facing a survival crisis and may even become extinct.

2. Cicada breeding methods

1. Provide nutritious forests for cicadas. You can cultivate seedlings of broad-leaved trees, such as willows, poplars, and elms. The trunks should be planted shorter, and the trees should be covered with nylon nets. The adult cicadas are placed on the trees in the net room to lay eggs. The eggs should be well preserved, and the branches with eggs should be buried at the roots of the trees in the net room. You can also use fruit trees in abandoned orchards, set up fences around them, surround them with wire mesh, and cover the top with nylon nets.

2. Provide high-quality feed for cicadas, such as poplars, willows, elms or some fruit trees, and regularly add some root plants, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes and yams, to provide enough energy for the cicadas at all stages of their growth.

3. Provide a comfortable and livable environment for cicadas. Cicada eggs should be buried at a depth of 30cm-50cm. The burial site should be sunny, frost-proof, with soft, fertile, pollution-free soil and appropriate humidity. In winter, the burial site should be covered with wheat straw, rice straw or corn stalks.
