Herbridge,22 April 2010-Epimedium will see the harvest season at the end of June.Will it relieve the shortage market?

    It is not likely to avoid the shortage situation.said Lan Beiya,manager,Hanzhong Trg Biotech  Co.,Ltd.

    Epimedium primary grows in Gansu once destroyed in the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake.A great many of  people worked for the post-disaster reconstruction.They are reluctant to pick epimedium on the  hill.The pay gradually rose to 80 yuan from 30 yuan per day each.It presently takes around 100  yuan to employ one farmer to pick epimedium every day.Meanwhile,overexploitation causes the  material quality to decrease from 0.6% to 0.4%.In addition,the SW drought affects the output  somewhat this year.Presently,some manufacturers go to Gansu for epimedium.

    Lan said,epimedium has significant seasonality.Only be harvested sometime in June can we get  superior epimedium. In addition,epimedium has distinct locality,the qulity varies even in  Gansu.Therefore,it is difficult to cultivate epimedium in Shaanxi or somewhere else.

    The price for epimedium rises to around 30RMB/kg from 8RMB/kg.Accordingly,10% Icariin price  rises from 270RMB/kg to 850RMB/kg.20% icariin price increases to about 1700RMB/kg from  350RMB/kg.

    There are only one or two manufacturers providing Epimedium extract in large volume  now.Hanzhong Trg Biotech and Shaanxi Jiahe Phytochem Co.,Ltd are both enterprises with abundant  strength.Currently,Hanzhong Trg Biotech has 10%-98% icariin in stock.Lan said,"as one of our  main products,we will try our best to supply epimedium extract in any case."
