A pumpkin
seed, also known as a pepita, is the
edible seed of a pumpkin or certain other cultivars of squash. The seeds are typically rather flat and asymmetrically oval, and light green in color and may have a white outer hull. Some cultivars are hulless, and are grown only for their seed. The seeds are nutrient-rich, with especially high content of protein, dietary
fiber and numerous micronutrients. The word can refer either to the hulled kernel or
unhulled whole seed, and most commonly refers to the roasted end product.
In a 100 gram
serving, the seeds are calorie-dense (574 kcal) and an
excellent source (20% of the Daily
Value, DV, and higher) of protein, dietaryfiber, niacin, iron, zinc, manganese, magnesium and phosphorus. The seeds are a good source (10–19% DV) of riboflavin, folate, pantothenic

Do not ignore the pest control of dormant fruit trees
The prevention and control of fruit trees during the dormancy period in winter and early spring is an important opportunity for prevention and control throughout the year. Qing is Qingyuan. Some diseases of fruit trees often occur in weeds, fallen leaves, diseased branches, fallen fruits, and frozen fruits. Therefore, after deciduous fruit trees, weeds, deciduous and diseased branches, etc. of orchards should be promptly removed and buried deeply. burn. Turning is ploughing orchards. It is possible to turn overwintered pests in the soil to freeze or die on the surface, or to be eaten by birds and other natural enemies. Tillage orchards can be combined with organic fertilizer application. Generally, the depth of the garden is 30-40 cm. The better the time is, the closer to the soil freezing effect. At this time, the pests have entered dormant wintering conditions and cannot be re-entered into the winter. Scraping is scraping the bark. Because many pathogens and pests that harm fruit trees overwinter in rough cracks and scrape bark in winter, they can be removed. Practice has proved that scraping bark is best carried out in the late autumn and early winter, which also eliminates pests during the early winter. The degree of scraping the skin is generally to grasp the principles of light and large trees and Wangshu should be heavy for small trees and weak trees. The light only scratches dead rough skin, and the thicker scrapes yellowish green to the cortex. After shaving, the rough skin is buried or burned. Scissors combine with winter pruning to cut out branches and dead fruits that have pests and diseases, and burn or bury them deeply. Spraying is usually performed after the defoliation of the fruit trees and before germination with the use of 300 mg of Formosa arsenic and 30 times of crystal lime sulfur, preferably twice. When spraying, it is required that the trees be sprayed on the ground. This will not only protect the wounds and branches, but also eliminate some of the pests that have passed through the winter in the branches and soil. Tu is painted white on the trunk. It can reduce the risk of sunburn and freezing injury and overwintering under the trunk. It can delay the budding and flowering of fruit trees and avoid the hazard of late frost. It is better to paint white twice, the first time after falling leaves and before the soil is frozen, and the second time in early spring. Whitening agent formulation: 12 parts of quicklime, 1 part of salt, 3 to 4 parts of clay, 1 part of lime sulfur, 25 to 30 parts of water. The main part of the white painted area is the main trunk. The main branch, the base of the main branch, the sunny side of the trunk, and the branches and branches are mainly painted. Be careful not to apply it to the bud to prevent burning. It is appropriate to coat white with no flow and no dry skin.
