莼菜(Brasenia schreberj)系多年生的野生水生植物,分布于湖滨沼泽等浅水区域。我县东山曾是太湖莼菜的主要天然产地,沿太湖的渡村、浦庄、横活、越溪等乡也有生产历史,由于围湖造田,莼菜面积和产量均大幅度下降。为了恢复和发展这一名特产品,我们进行了莼菜的人工种植试验。 Brasenia schreberj is a perennial wild aquatic plant located in shallow water areas such as lakeshore swamps. Dongshan Prefecture was once the main natural habitat of Taihu waterfowl. The villages along Duhu Village, Puzhuang, Henghuo and Yuexiu along Taihu Lake also had their own production history. Because of the reclamation of the lake, the area and yield of Buk-bei subsided significantly. In order to restore and develop this special product, we carried out the artificial cultivation test of Brasenia schreberi.
