Between Zhanglin Town and Yangying Town in Zhenping County, there is a large area of barren land, which makes food and agriculture complain incessantly. In 2012, Linfeng Green Agricultural products Development Co., Ltd., Zhenping County, founded by Chu Guolin, settled here. Five years have passed in an instant, the once barren farmland has become a ten thousand mu lotus base, and the villagers who used to "cultivate land without making money" have also increased their income, and the barren land has opened a delicate and beautiful "poverty alleviation flower".

The 46-year-old Chu Guolin was born into a peasant family in Yinying Village, Yangying Town. because of his poor family, he joined the ranks of selling vegetables after graduating from junior high school.

In the spring of 2001, Chu Guolin expanded from simple lotus root sale to lotus root planting. He contracted 3000 mu of paddy field in Hubei Province to grow lotus root. From seed selection to fertilization, from soil preparation to field management, from mining to preservation and transportation, he has developed a good skill of planting lotus root. At the same time, his lotus root sales network has also gradually expanded to Neixiang, Nanyang, Xixia and other places, with an annual income of millions of yuan.

"you've done so much in lotus root business out of town, why don't you go back to our hometown and let the villagers get rich, too?" During a visit to his hometown, the words of the villagers deeply touched Chu Guolin. So he decided to return to his hometown to start a business.

In 2012, Chu Guolin returned to his hometown to establish Zhenping County Linfeng Green Agricultural products Development Co., Ltd. So far, the company has transferred more than 10000 mu of land, raised more than 90 million yuan of investment, and built the largest lotus root production base in the dry farming area north of the Yangtze River. At present, the company has an annual production capacity of more than 20000 tons of lotus root and an annual sales income of more than 52 million yuan, driving more than 2000 farmers around to develop lotus root production and absorbing more than 300 rural idle workers.

"Farmers rely on enterprises to achieve labor employment on their doorstep, which not only increases their income, but also takes care of the elderly and students at home, which greatly improves the happiness and sense of security of rural families." Chu Guolin said that he will further lengthen the industrial chain, do a good job in the deep processing of lotus roots, lotus flowers, and lotus leaves, and explore a way for the comprehensive development of agriculture, which is dominated by agricultural production and integrates production and processing, eco-tourism, and cultural and creative industries. we will achieve the deep integration of primary, secondary and tertiary industries, continue to play the radiation-driven role of leading enterprises in the battle of "precision poverty alleviation", and bring more benefits to local farmers.
