The invention relates to a rivier giantarum rhizome pit planting method, and belongs to the technical field of crop cultivation. The method comprises the specific steps that 1, seeds are selected, wherein 100-250 g of rivier giantarum rhizomes with no scab or rot are selected as seed rivier giantarum rhizomes; 2, storage is carried out, wherein the seed rivier giantarum rhizomes are stored at the indoor temperature in a heat preservation mode after being dried in the sun; 3, grooves are dug, wherein land parcel outer edges are selected, and grooves are dug along the land edges; 4, backfilling is carried out, wherein the grooves are backfilled with straw and fine soil, and strip-shaped planting belts are formed through accumulation; 5, seeding is carried out, wherein seeding is carried out in mid-to-late April next year. By the adoption of the rivier giantarum rhizome pit planting method, the soil organic matter can be increased, the soil quality can be improved, the soil water permeability and breathability are improved, the development space is expanded, the problems that the rivier giantarum rhizomes have harsh requirements for land parcels and a few of appropriate planting areas exist are solved, and the purpose of controlling and relieving diseases and improving the yield of the rivier giantarum rhizomes is achieved. Chemical fertilizer and pesticide can be replaced, or the usage amount of chemical fertilizer and pesticide can be reduced, high yield and stable yield of the rivier giantarum rhizomes are achieved, and it is ensured that the product is environmentally friendly and safe in quality.
