Small chives go out of the country and poor households get rid of poverty.

On November 30, the author walked into Dongwang Village, Jicui Township, Fangshan County. As soon as I stepped into this famous "green onion village", a strong scent came to my nostrils, and from afar, a touch of green was like a rhythmic note playing the music of life under the cold wind.

"this kind of onion is called German chive, and now it has a planting area of 100mu. This kind of onion can cut six crops a year. It can produce 4000 kilograms per mu of land and sell for 3.80 yuan per kilogram." Qin Tangui, general manager of Fangshan County Hongyun Yutai Agriculture, Forestry and Animal Husbandry Professional Cooperative, introduced to the author.

It is understood that this special German chive, compared with ordinary onions, has a stronger flavor and is mainly sold to Germany and the United States. And this kind of onion can be cut and sold like leek after crop. Speaking of growing German chives, Qin Tangui told me that it all depends on a coincidence. At a training meeting organized by the Provincial Agriculture Department, after listening to the experience introduction of a chive enterprise in Youyu County, I had a strong interest in chives. So he visited and investigated in many ways and began to plant chives.

Seeing that his chives sell well and are a good project to make money, Qin Tangui has a new idea. He wants to drive the villagers to develop this industry and lead them to shake off poverty and become rich. As a result, Fangshan County Hongyun Yutai agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry professional cooperative was established, and villagers were widely mobilized to come in and engage in the spring onion industry.

"because I am a native of Dongwang Village, and there are many poor people in our village, I want to bring them in and get rich together. The cooperative adopts the cooperative mode of "cooperative + base + peasant household", with a total of 47 members, of which 38 are poor, and the income directly brought to poor households is 10,000 yuan a year. " Qin Tangui stated the original intention of establishing the Hongyun Yutai agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry professional cooperative in Fangshan County.

After less than a year of planting, the chives of Dongwang Village are now famous in Fangshan County, and their products are exported to Germany, the United States and other places, becoming one of the indispensable seasonings on overseas dining tables.

"We are better at growing spring onions than other crops. Corn, potatoes and millet are troublesome to grow. Not only do we get them every year, but the economic benefits are not good. This spring onion can grow for five consecutive years when it is planted every year, and the income of growing onions is higher than that of corn, potatoes and millet. " A villager of Dongwang Village said so to the author.

"next, we plan to build 30 spring and autumn sheds to plant black spring onions and German shallots. This onion is mainly planted in spring and autumn. This season coincides with poor households having nothing to do after harvesting their crops. This onion can be produced and put on the market. The growing period is 70 days. The first crop can be harvested before freezing. In addition, we also plan to increase 200 mu and absorb more than 100 poor households, so that we can do something in our village and absorb the surrounding villages next year to shake off poverty and become rich together. " At the end of the interview, Qin Tangui talked about the next step of development.
