Judging from data and trends in some regions, China's konjac production continues to grow. For example, Langao County plans to continue to expand the konjac planting "territory" in 2024, with a total area of ​​150,000 acres, and plans to achieve a konjac output value of 1.5 billion yuan. Hanbin District is also planning to develop 10,000 acres of konjac planting, and has already achieved high konjac yield and value.

 

In addition, from a global perspective, China has become the largest country in konjac production in the world, accounting for about 63% of global production. Therefore, it can be inferred that China's konjac production leads the world and is expected to continue to grow.

 

The growth cycle of konjac is usually 7-9 months, which varies slightly according to different regions and planting conditions. Usually planted in spring (March-April) and harvested in autumn (October-November).

 

It is understood that konjac production may decline in 2024, resulting in a slight increase in konjac gum prices. Chengdu Road is also continuing to pay attention to specific industry information.
