Entering September, wolfberry entered the picking season. The bright red wolfberry fruit hangs on the branches, and the farmers are busy harvesting the wolfberry. As a product with the same origin as medicine and food, wolfberry has always been favored by consumers. In recent years, as people pay more and more attention to health preservation, the demand for wolfberry is also increasing. Young people have also joined the health care industry. "Putting wolfberry in a thermos cup" has not only become a hot word on the Internet, but also a true portrayal of contemporary young people's punk health care.

As a characteristic and advantageous industry in some places, wolfberry is generally sold in the form of dried fruit, and the traditional drying method is generally drying. This method is strongly dependent on the weather, and the weather conditions determine the drying time and efficiency of wolfberry, and the yield is low, which is not suitable for the needs of large-scale and industrialized development. In addition, in the process of natural drying of wolfberry, it is very easy to be polluted by the ash layer in the air, and the quality of the product is difficult to guarantee. With the breakthrough development of food processing technology, the drying process of wolfberry has been changed from traditional drying to mechanical drying, and the drying efficiency has been significantly improved.

In addition, the cleaning work before the wolfberry is dried is also very important. There is a lot of dust and harmful substances attached to the surface of the freshly picked wolfberry. The traditional cleaning method is not only inefficient, and the cleanliness is not guaranteed, but also easily damages the outer skin of the wolfberry, which greatly reduces the quality of the wolfberry. Generally, a bubble cleaning machine is used to clean wolfberry, and the bubbles are gentle, which is not easy to cause damage to wolfberry. The bubble cleaning machine uses the air pump to generate a large air wave to roll up the wolfberry in the pool to achieve the effect of full cleaning.The transportation process adopts dust-free sunscreen technology. After being transported into the fresh-keeping warehouse to be heated in the field, the fresh fruits are then cleaned, and the drying process can only be entered after cleaning. There are as many as 14 drying processes for wolfberry. Before leaving the factory, goji berries are also tested for microorganisms.

With the arrival of the health-preserving trend, the production areas of wolfberry need to accelerate the pace of chain extension, supplementation, and chain strengthening of the wolfberry industry, introduce processing equipment and processing technology, and accelerate the development of the wolfberry deep processing industry.
