Scope of geographical protection

The geographical indication protection area of Leye pepper covers Leye, Yiche, Jinzhong, Zhehai and Huohong villages and towns in Huize County. The geographical coordinates are 103 ° 22 ′ 00 ″ east longitude - 103 ° 37 ′ 00 ″ north latitude 26 ° 29 ′ 00 ″ - 26 ° 47 ′ 00 ″. [6]

Quality and technical requirements

  • Production technical requirements
(1) Origin selection
Leye pepper chooses a loam plot with flat terrain, convenient irrigation and drainage, deep, loose and fertile soil layer, no industrial "three wastes" discharge nearby, and far away from the traffic trunk road.
(2) Variety selection
Leye pepper is mainly cultivated in Leye, a traditional fine local variety. It is named because it is planted in Leye slot and the shape of pepper fruit is like sheep horn.
(3) Production process management
Seedling raising time: in March and March of each year, plastic arch shed is used for seedling raising. If conditions permit, plug seedling raising and factory seedling raising can be used, and seedling facilities are disinfected to create environmental conditions suitable for seedling growth and development.
Preparation of seedbed: The seedbed shall be selected from the land with leeward and sunny, loose and fertile soil, convenient irrigation and drainage, and no solanaceous crops have been planted in the last three years. Deep turning and sunning shall be carried out first, and the soil shall be finely ground. Six portions of garden soil, four portions of decomposed organic fertilizer, and 75 grams of ordinary superphosphate and 60 grams of potassium sulfate shall be added every 1 square meter to fully mix. The border shall be 1.2 meters wide, and the length shall be suitable for flat border.
Seed treatment: select plump and shiny seeds, soak them in 25-30 ℃ clean water for 4-5 hours, and mix them with 2-4 grams of 50% carbendazim wettable powder per kilogram of seeds before sowing.
Seeding method: select windless and sunny weather, and sow in the afternoon. The sowing amount is 10-15 grams per 1 square meter. Before sowing, fully water the seedbed. After the water seeps out, evenly sow the seeds on the seedbed, and then cover a layer of 1cm thick seedbed soil. The bed surface is covered with plastic film for heat preservation and moisture preservation.
Seedling management: after sowing, keep the temperature in the shed at 25-30 ℃ in the day and 18-20 ℃ at night. When the seedlings emerge at 70%, remove the mulch and mulch on the bed surface in time, and spread a thin layer of fine soil on the bed surface to prevent the seedlings from falling down and exposing their roots. After the seedlings are complete, keep the daytime temperature in the shed at about 25 ℃, and the night temperature at 15-20 ℃. The seedlings should be pulled out in time. The injured seedlings, deformed seedlings, top shell seedlings, and diseased seedlings should be pulled out. After thinning, the seedlings should be covered with 0.3cm thick fine soil to protect the soil moisture and roots. If the humidity of the seedbed is too high and the temperature is too high, the seedbed should be properly ventilated to cool down and remove moisture. If it is too dry, it should be properly watered. The seeding bed seedlings shall be refined one week before seeding. When two leaves are in one mind, select sunny morning to divide seedlings in time, and the seedbed shall be watered thoroughly the day before seedling separation. When picking up seedlings, first use a shovel to loosen the soil from below the root group, carefully take out the seedlings, and immediately plant them into the sub seedling bed. After the seedlings are separated, the plastic shed shall be covered in time, and then the straw curtain shall be covered. Generally, the shed shall be uncovered during the day and covered at night. The temperature in the shed shall be kept at 30 ℃ within 7 days to promote the rooting and returning of seedlings. When the temperature exceeds 35 ℃, ventilation shall be provided to prevent seedlings from burning. Thereafter, the seedbed temperature shall be kept at 25-27 ℃, and ventilation shall be conducted when the temperature exceeds 30 ℃. Urea was applied 2-3 times depending on the growth of seedlings. When seedlings are obviously short of water, water them properly. 10 days before planting, gradually remove all the covers and conduct outdoor seedling training.
Land preparation: select the plot without solanaceous crops in the previous crop, remove the weeds in the field and the residual branches and leaves of the previous crop, turn the land to sun, and prepare the land carefully. Before the last plowing, 2000-3000 kg of decomposed farm manure and 30-50 kg of ordinary calcium superphosphate shall be applied every 667 square meters as the base fertilizer, mixed and evenly scattered on the ground, buried in the soil during plowing, and furrowed and ridged for planting after raking.
Planting: When seedlings grow to 7-10 true leaves, they shall be transplanted and planted in time. The wide and narrow rows shall be ridged and covered with film for planting. The wide rows shall be 70-80cm, the narrow rows shall be 40cm, and the pond spacing shall be 30-35cm. The fertile land shall be thin and the thin land shall be dense. When planting, dig ponds on the ridge surface to plant seedlings, apply 30-50kg compound fertilizer to the holes per mu, and water enough to stabilize the seedlings. Cover the film, break the film to attract seedlings, seal the film with soil, and pour small water on the film once to make the film more compact.
Water and fertilizer management: after the planting is successful, 4-6 kg urea shall be applied every 667 square meters. For soil fertilization, attention shall be paid to digging ponds 8-10 cm away from the root, covering soil and watering to prevent root burning; After entering the young fruit stage, 4-5kg potassium sulfate and 4-5kg urea should be applied every 667 square meters; From the initial flowering stage, spray 0.1-0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate aqueous solution on the leaves 2-3 times, 0.1% borax aqueous solution 1-2 times, once every 10 days, and spray about 50 kg every 667 square meters each time. The plots with irrigation conditions shall be watered once in the young fruit stage, and then watered timely in sunny morning according to the moisture content. During the whole growth period, pay attention to drainage in rainy days, avoid waterlogging on the border surface, and properly control watering in the red ripening period. It is prohibited to water polluted dirty water, use garbage, sludge, nitrate nitrogen (ammonium nitrate, etc.), chlorine containing fertilizer, compound (mixed) fertilizer with nitrate nitrogen and chlorine containing fertilizer as raw materials, and prohibit any fertilizer within 20 days before harvesting.
Disease and insect control: adopt physical, biological and chemical control measures, carry out rotation for more than one year, cultivate healthy seedlings at the right age, ridging and film mulching cultivation, increase organic fertilizer, and improve stress resistance. Use yellow board to lure aphids, actively protect and use natural enemies such as ladybugs septempunctata to prevent and control diseases and pests; In terms of drug control, biological pesticides such as matrine and azadirachtin are preferred for pest control, followed by chemical pesticides, which are strictly in accordance with GB 4285 and GB/T 8321.
(4) Product harvest
The standard for fruit harvesting is that the whole fruit turns red, and more than 90% of the whole fruit will be harvested at one time with fruit in succession when it is red and ripe. 8-10 trees will be bundled together, hung to dry, and then picked for marketing. Strengthen post harvest management to ensure product safety, nutrition, quality and hygiene.
(5) Production record requirements
During the whole Leye pepper production process, the inputs of production materials (fertilizers, pesticides, seeds, etc.), production base plots and relevant quality inspection data shall be recorded.
