英国Horticulture Research International(HRI)日前开发了一种小型酒花,可降低生产成本。 与传统方法首先切下酒花蔓,再除去酒花果不同,该公司利用特制的采收机,可快速收割酒花果。 HRI科学家设计的简易种植及采收技术可为英国农民降低生产成本,提高市场竞争力。 一般酒花高约4.9米,小型酒花只有2.4米高。据HRI估计,小型酒花可节省15％涉及种植、护理及采收的成本。 Horticulture Research International (HRI) has recently developed a small hops to reduce production costs. Unlike traditional methods, which cut the hop first and then remove the hops, the company uses a special harvester to harvest hops quickly. Simple planting and harvesting techniques designed by HRI scientists can reduce production costs and increase market competitiveness for British farmers. Hops generally about 4.9 meters high, small hops only 2.4 meters high. HRI estimates that small hops save 15% on the costs of planting, care and harvesting.
