Fengqing, Lincang, Yunnan: grow flowers and take the road to prosperity

In early spring, walking into Luodang Town, Fengqing County, villager qu Chengyun was busy managing his own camellias. While weeding, he said: "over the past few years, my family has constantly explored the adjustment of industrial structure, conscientiously studied camellias planting techniques, and used the land originally planted for grain to grow camellias. The camellias planted are of good quality and sell well. Annual sales are more than 100000 yuan. Now the family has built a small building, made use of solar energy, improved the living environment, lived a happy life, and led the surrounding people to develop the camellia industry. "

Qu Chengyun's family lived in typical alpine mountains for generations. In the past, they made a living by growing grain. Due to inconvenient transportation, barren land and backward science and technology, they had no way to get rich despite their desire to get rich. With the continuous improvement of highway infrastructure, the local people ushered in a good opportunity.

After qu Chengyun got a good profit from planting camellias, he began to think that in order to let more villagers get rich together, he provided tea books free of charge to those villagers who were willing to grow them, and took the initiative to teach grafting techniques at home, leading everyone to unify planting, unified management, and unified sales. Led by him, more and more people began to plant camellias, and all of them got better profits.

"with the increase in the number of flower farmers, I plan to set up a professional camellia cooperative this year, which can not only protect ecological resources, but also give full play to regional advantages and encourage more people to drum up their pockets." Qu Chengyun said: only by paying close attention to the adjustment of the industrial structure and taking the road of ecological industrial development and industrialization of ecological construction can we get rid of poverty and embark on the road to prosperity. In the future, he will continue to work hard to help more people lead a well-off life.
