Development Prospects Of The Ecological Industry Of Cistanche Deserticola
Feb 23, 2024
Cistanche deserticola is a famous tonifying traditional Chinese medicine and one of the precious Chinese medicinal herbs in the northwest region of China. It is widely used to improve physical functions, prevent and treat dementia and Parkinson's disease, anti-aging, health care, and constipation. At the same time, as a parasitic plant, the large-scale cultivation of Cistanche deserticola has a good role in preventing and fixing sand, controlling deserts, and improving the ecological environment in the western region. Therefore, the Cistanche deserticola industry is a typical ecological industry that integrates economic benefits, ecological benefits, environmental benefits, and social benefits.

1, The characteristics and advantages of the ecological industry of Cistanche deserticola
(1) The advantages of desert governance and improving the ecological environment

At present, the measures taken by China to control deserts, such as nylon net sand interception and ecological cushion sand suppression, are only temporary or passive sand control, with high investment, and high cost, and cannot achieve sustainable development. How to develop a sustainable development project that can not only control deserts but also generate good economic benefits, and transform passive sand control into active sand control, is the dream sand control method in the field of desertification control.
The hosts of desert deserticola and tubular deserticola are Haloxylon ammodendron and willow trees, respectively. To plant deserticola, it is necessary to first plant Haloxylon ammodendron or willow plants, which are shrubs and semi-trees suitable for desert and arid environments. Haloxylon ammodendron and willow plants have good sand control and fixation effects and are excellent plants for desert management. Cistanche deserticola parasitizes on the roots of the main plant. After excavating medicinal herbs, the sandy soil is filled in without affecting the desert environment. Planting Cistanche deserticola and its host plants is a sustainable and proactive desertification control project.

(2) Economic benefits advantage
Cistanche deserticola is one of the precious Chinese medicinal herbs. Currently, the market price for desert Cistanche deserticola is 100-120 yuan/kg, and for tubular Cistanche is 80-100 yuan/kg. At the same time, the plants of the Haloxylon ammodendron and Salix genus require less water, and their cultivation is relatively rough, resulting in lower production costs and thus having good economic benefits.

2, Construction of the Ecological Industry Chain of Cistanche deserticola
We have proposed three aspects: ecological agriculture mainly focuses on the cultivation of Cistanche deserticola, green industry mainly focuses on the production of Cistanche deserticola and its related products, and characteristic commerce mainly focuses on the sales of Cistanche deserticola medicinal materials, decoction pieces, and series products. We have systematically constructed the Cistanche deserticola ecological industry chain to promote sustainable development of the industry and further expand and strengthen the Cistanche deserticola ecological industry.

3, Outlook on the Development of Cistanche deserticola Ecological Industry
Cistanche deserticola has high medicinal and health value. Planting Cistanche deserticola and its host plants has a good effect on preventing and fixing sand, improving the ecological environment. With the aging population and increasing health awareness of the people in China, the Cistanche deserticola industry will develop rapidly. In the next 10 years, it is expected that the planting area of Cistanche deserticola will exceed 1 million mu, and more than 100 Cistanche deserticola-related products will be developed, achieving an annual output value of over 10 billion yuan, forming a Cistanche deserticola ecological industry with western characteristics.
