The harvesting of water chestnuts should be carried out by designated personnel, fields, and timing. There should be dedicated personnel, fixed fields, and pathways during harvesting, and the harvesting personnel should not be changed arbitrarily. When picking buds, precautions should be taken to prevent the buds from being too ripe or too tender. Generally, starting from late August, if the large leaves are lifted up and the spines on the surface of the bracts are found to be tilted, erect, and soft, it is a sign of early fruit ripening, and batch harvesting can begin. When harvesting, be careful to preserve the stem and avoid breaking it to prevent water from entering the plant through the stem wound and causing decay.Gorgeous fruit processing machineryProcessed water chestnuts are agricultural products with local characteristics, high nutritional, health, and economic value, and are traditional agricultural export commodities Researching the processing technology and supporting equipment for the industrialization of water chestnut, breaking through the bottleneck of easy planting and difficult processing, will drive the industrialization of water chestnut production, expand the planting area, develop green foreign exchange agriculture, and bring immeasurable economic and social benefits to water chestnut production areas.
Almost all operations are manual, and the peeling process is a crucial and difficult step in the processing of water chestnuts. Water chestnuts are mainly composed of cellulose and hemicellulose, with small gaps between the shells and hard shells that are difficult to peel off. While peeling, the kernels and their quality cannot be damaged. After unremitting efforts, the rotary type was finally developedGorgeous fruit processing machineryThe machine is reliable in quality and durable, making it a good helper for growers. Suitable for family style processing operations, it has the characteristics of simple operation, durability, small size, fast speed, low failure, and low maintenance, greatly improvingGorgeous fruit processing machineryThe shell removal speed has solved the problem of difficult and slow shell removal of water chestnuts, saving a lot of processing time.
