Save labor and plastic can reduce the environmental protection tray! Hualien Agricultural Improvement Farm (abbreviated as Hualien Agricultural Improvement Farm) cooperated with Xingzhong Paper Industry to launch a decomposable "multifunctional pulp seedling tray". The organic matter content of the tray made of raw pulp reaches 99.5%. It will automatically decompose in the soil within 30-40 days. It will not cause environmental burden and can also be used as soil fertilizer. The trial farmers pointed out that it can improve crop growth efficiency and prevent insects.

Cai Yifeng, acting director of the flower reform field, said that the traditional plastic plug tray used for vegetable seedling cultivation could not be decomposed, and then it had to be planted in another place, while the use of "multifunctional pulp seedling tray" could make seedling cultivation and planting work complete in one go, alleviate the problem of insufficient field labor, and inhibit weeds and clean the countryside. At present, the price is only 10 yuan at half price.

Half price subsidy during promotion period, only 10 yuan per tablet

Does this new, easy-to-use nursery tray increase farmers 'additional purchase costs? Lin Wenhua explained that a traditional plastic tray costs about 7 yuan, while a new nursery tray currently costs 20 yuan. The average cultivated area of farmers planting small-leaf vegetables in China is about 2.5 points, and it is estimated that 10,000 pieces of "multifunctional pulp seedling tray" will be used at one time, which is equivalent to investing 200,000 yuan in the purchase of seedling tray for cultivated land each time, and the average annual use is 8-9 times, and the cost is not low.

However, he points out that at the current promotion stage, farmers can get half of the subsidy, equivalent to a 50% discount, as long as they show their purchase receipt to the flower reform market. The subsidy activity will last until the end of Ming Dynasty (108), and the purchase method is to go to the Xingzhong Paper Market. He also mentioned that if the market acceptance is high in the future, the price of the new seedling tray will be lowered after mass production, hoping to compare the price of plastic tray.

Cai Yifeng also responded that the development potential of "multifunctional pulp seedling tray" is high. At present, raw materials are still used due to consideration of the safety of recycled pulp sources and components. If recycled pulp raw materials are sufficient, they will further develop "recycled pulp trays", and even other agricultural wastes such as rice husks and rice stalks will be stirred into pulp to make trays, hoping to help reduce more agricultural wastes.
