"Loquat Secretary" in Tongzi Town, Jiang'an

The sky is clear, Huifeng is smooth, now is the loquat picking season, Jiangan County Tongzi Town Dalu Village "Loquat Mountain" fruitful. The breeze is blowing slowly, blowing the sweet smell of loquat. Liu Bing, secretary of the branch of Dalu Village, is enjoying the joy of harvest, picking trees, packing them into boxes, and carrying them into the car. All this embodies the painstaking efforts of Liu Bing, the secretary of the village.

Exploring the planting of Loquat to develop the Industry

"Loquat can promote digestion and prevent vomiting. Soaking loquat with honey can also moisturize the lungs and relieve cough. 'Chuanbei Loquat Ointment' is made of loquat and other medicinal materials," Liu Bing said proudly while picking loquat.

Since he became a cadre in the village group of Dalu Village in 1995, seeing that other villages have developed with characteristics and the income of farmers is increasing day by day, Liu Bing began to explore characteristic agriculture to drive the development of this village. the cultivation of loquat began after many investigations and on-the-spot visits to Dadukou Town in Naxi. In the early stage of planting, due to lack of experience, loquat only had long leaves and did not hang fruit. Liu Bing led village cadres to "worship their teachers and learn skills" from large growers, and at the same time introduced high-quality fruit seedlings from Baihe Town, Longquanyi District, Chengdu. through grafting excellent branches, careful pruning, and careful management, loquat trees are getting "taller and stronger" year after year. Today, the barren mountain behind Liu Bing's house has been full of loquats. there are 135loquat trees in the full fruit stage alone, with an annual output of 9000 jin and an output value of 100000 yuan. Picked loquat 10 jin a box of unified packaging sales, the price is 150 yuan, mainly sold to Chongqing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Jiang'an and other places, supply exceeds demand year after year.

Realize the combination of planting and cultivation to make use of the wasteland

"in the past, many people in the village went out to work, most of the fields were abandoned, and we also used other people's land to grow crops, and we couldn't sell it for much money after a year's hard work," Li Jianqiang, a villager of Dalu Village, told us. However, Secretary Liu turned the wasteland into a "treasure land". Not only did Liu Bing plant loquat, but Liu Bing also used the open space under loquat trees to develop a project of raising chickens under the forest, including native chickens, 882 yellow chickens, black-bone chickens, etc., with more than 500 chickens a year. Since breeder chickens are scattered under loquat trees, it can be said that they grew up eating "Loquat-Shaped Cake", which made the meat of chickens particularly fresh and tender. Liu Bing affectionately called them "loquat chickens." In the rice fields near the loquat trees, Liu Bing did not "let go". He raised rice field fish, which ate not only rice flowers but also loquat flowers. Secretary Liu Bing also called them "loquat fish."

The Party Building leads the Industry to make Farmers well-off

Most of the villagers in Dalu Village rely on traditional agriculture to maintain their livelihood, and the harvest depends entirely on "God." in order to realize the transformation from traditional agriculture to new characteristic agriculture, Liu Bing took the initiative to go to the house to do ideological propaganda work to drive the surrounding people to develop industries. At first, most of the masses held a wait-and-see attitude and were afraid of "losing money," but after seeing Secretary Liu Bing take the lead in developing citrus and loquat cultivation and earning considerable income, the villagers joined in one after another. Today, Dalu Village has set up a professional cooperative for sweet orange farmers in Orange Township, with 178members, and plans to set up a party branch in the special cooperative this year to further play the leading role of the party organization. the village planted summer oranges, Eyuan, Taroko more than 800mu, loquat more than 120mu, with an annual output value of more than 6.5 million yuan, driving 250 farmers, and the per capita net income of farmers increased by 4200 yuan compared with the same period last year. "sales are very good this year. I'm going to mobilize the surrounding farmers to plant loquats together, and we can sell as much as we plant." Liu Bing said confidently that this kind of self-confidence makes us see the brilliant prospect of the industrial development of Dalu Village in the future.
