Farmers grow fruit that grows in the soil, yielding 4000 kilograms per mu and earning more than a hundred thousand a year.

In rural areas, it is normal for farmers to grow this and that. Generally speaking, we all know that only sweet potatoes, potatoes and taros are grown in the soil. However, there is a kind of fruit which is similar to sweet potato in color and appearance, and even grows in the soil like sweet potato. When it comes to this kind of fruit growing in the soil, there may be some friends who do not know what it is, or may find it strange. Usually, the fruit we often eat grows on trees, and I have heard for the first time that there are fruits growing in the soil. This kind of fruit is snow lotus fruit, and some farmers earn more than one hundred thousand yuan a year by planting it.

Maoye, a farmer from Xinhua Village, is growing this kind of fruit growing in the soil-snow lotus fruit, which can be sold for 7 yuan per jin in the market. Snow lotus fruit mainly grows in Hainan, Guizhou, Hunan, Hubei and other provinces, its flesh entrance fragrant, crisp and delicious, taste very good, nutritional value is also relatively high, can lower blood sugar, cholesterol, can help digestion, is a natural health product for beauty. Snow lotus fruit contains more than 20 kinds of oxygen acids and minerals and trace elements such as calcium, iron, potassium, selenium and so on. Regular consumption can improve human immunity. It is favored by public friends and sells very well in the market.

Brother Mao is now planting this piece of loess sloping land, which used to grow sweet potatoes, but the income is low. Later, after realizing the snow lotus fruit, I used this fertile slope to plant the snow lotus fruit. Unexpectedly, the snow lotus fruit was of excellent quality, large in size, and very sweet and crisp in taste. Each plant produced 3 kilograms of fruit, and the highest plant produced 10 kilograms. The yield per mu reached 4000 kilograms. After the purchasers came to taste the snow lotus fruit planted in the first year, I thought it tasted very good, so I bought it all at once. It was planted for the first time that year, so it was planted less, but it also made tens of thousands of yuan.

Up to now, Brother Mao has been planting snow lotus fruit for the seventh year, and the planting area is getting larger and larger, from a few mu of sloping land at the beginning to more than ten mu now. The first kind of planting earns tens of thousands of yuan a year, but now it earns more than NT $100,000 a year by planting snow lotus fruit, which is higher than that of planting sweet potatoes. Every year, the snow lotus fruit planted by Brother Mao is purchased by the acquirers in the unearthed season, and it has never changed, because the snow lotus fruit he grows is of high quality and has been purchased by the same acquirer for seven years. According to Brother Mao, the unearthed purchase price is 2.50 yuan per jin, and the output value per mu is 10000 yuan. It will not be a problem to earn more than 100,000 yuan per mu of snow lotus fruit a year.
