ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo analyze the production of Poria in 5 major producing areas and the problems through field investigation and literature review and thus to lay a foundation for healthy development of Poria industry. MethodEach production process of Poria in Anhui, Hubei, Hunan, Yunnan, and Sichuan was probed and related research was retrieved for the analysis. ResultSichuan, Guangxi, Guizhou, and other areas have been the emerging producers of Poria. However, a few Poria cocos lines were used and the variety breeding lagged behind. Different cultivation techniques were adopted in different production areas. For example, the "induction" method failed to be widely used. Moreover, the harvest time was mainly dependent on the market demand not matter it was suitable or not. Furthermore, steaming has replaced the traditional diaphoretic processing in the processing of this medicinal material in production areas. In addition, fumigation with sulphur was still used in the processing of Poria. ConclusionAn excellent variety is the key to the quality of Poria. Efforts should be made to strengthen the evaluation of the germplasm resources of P. cocos and variety breeding and standardize the processing in production areas, thereby ensuring the safety and effectiveness of Poria and the decoction pieces. In addition, the contradiction between artificial cultivation and woodland ecology should be fully coordinated to ensure the sustainable development of Poria industry in China.
