As an important support for poverty alleviation of planting in Guilin, Guangxi, the "Gifforth Luohanguo Industry Precision Poverty Alleviation Project" has realized accurate poverty alleviation by optimizing and integrating poverty alleviation resources through the Luohanguo industry model of "company + standardized planting". Many green Siraitia grosvenorii have set up a bridge for poor households in Guilin to get rid of poverty.

"Sweet Fruit" draws a blueprint for getting rich

Wu Yongping's family used to be a poor family in Jintang Village, Daxijiang Town, Quanzhou County, Guilin City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous region, but now his planting technology of Luohanguo is second to none in the village. Last year, he planted nearly 18 mu of Siraitia grosvenorii, with more than 160 trees per mu, each with more than 100 fruits, growing gratifying. According to the purchase contract signed, the price of each Siraitia grosvenorii is calculated at 0.5 yuan, the income per mu is more than 7500 yuan, excluding the cost, the net profit per mu is more than 6000 yuan, the annual income of more than 2800 Siraitia grosvenorii is more than 110000 yuan, and the profit is about 70, 000 yuan. This year, he will expand the scale of planting. Deng Chunfa, from Guangfu Village, the same town, planted 800 Siraitia grosvenorii seedlings last year, with an annual income of about 40,000 yuan and a profit of about 30,000 yuan. Today, Siraitia grosvenorii is planted in Quanzhou County.

Quanzhou County has towering mountains and beautiful mountains and rivers. However, due to inconvenient transportation, poor information and backward awareness of development, the income of the villagers in the village has been growing slowly and has been in a state of poverty for a long time. By planting Siraitia grosvenorii, the villagers got rid of poverty and became rich, turning barren hills into green hills, wasteland into fertile fields, and fields into gardens. When it comes to Guangxi Guilin Jifu Biotechnology Co., Ltd., the guide who led them out of poverty, the villagers all gave a thumbs-up praise.

Since 2016, in accordance with the development model of "funds follow the poor, the poor follow the able people, the capable people follow the industry, and the industry follows the market", and in line with the working principle of "poverty alleviation first helps wisdom, poverty alleviation does not save laziness", Quanzhou county in the accurate poverty alleviation work, combined with the county's climate and geographical conditions, through multi-investigation, determined the pattern of Luohanguo industry leading the masses out of poverty, supplemented by other ways of poverty alleviation. We will promote the in-depth development of accurate poverty alleviation work.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of Siraitia grosvenorii industry, do a good job of market risk assessment and marketing protection, Quanzhou County and Gifforth signed a cooperation agreement on Siraitia grosvenorii planting, the company is responsible for seedling provision and fruit recovery, and is responsible for the technical guidance of the whole process. it also defines the purchase and guarantee agreement price, which provides a strong market guarantee for the sale of Siraitia grosvenorii.

With these guarantees, poor households in Quanzhou County actively participated in the development of Siraitia grosvenorii planting in the form of "company + base + professional cooperatives + farmers". Embarked on the road of getting rid of poverty and becoming rich.

In the form of getting rid of poverty through Siraitia grosvenorii, farmers can not only choose their own planting and development, but also implement large-scale contracted planting through land transfer. The government provides policy support and technical training, and has taken measures to employ professional and technical personnel for centralized training and on-site guidance. The labor force of all poor households has also concentrated to set up "labor export cooperatives" and set up planting sites in various planting areas, each of which identifies "accurate" poor households from the "labor export cooperatives". All the labor required for this planting site is borne by the "precision" poor households, so as to increase the agricultural income of these poor households.

Siraitia grosvenorii industry introduced in cooperation with Gifforth is another new industry to get rid of poverty and become rich after Hongxin kiwifruit and Cangxi Snow Pear in Guilin, which can form a benign complement with kiwifruit industry. Siraitia grosvenorii can be planted 3 years before kiwifruit orchard or during the recovery period of the diseased orchard, kiwifruit scaffolding and other facilities can be shared, and the output value per mu can reach 5000-10000 yuan.
