"if you plant 9-cent passion fruit, you can earn 13000 yuan, which is more than double the usual income of 5000 yuan per mu of passion fruit. This is not bragging. Some people can really do it." Lan Hua, secretary of the party committee of Oudong Township, said that this person is Tao Shikang, a villager of Dadongtun, Limiao Village, Oudong Township, Xincheng County. He is a famous local king of passion fruit cultivation, and he is also the leader of the party members who lead the villagers to plant passion fruit to get rid of poverty and become rich.

When I met Tao Shikang on June 23, he was weeding, pruning and pruning leaves in the passion fruit base. "this is the passion fruit I planted. I planted 4 mu last year, and it is out of stock. I have planted another 8 mu this year, and my income is expected to reach 10,000 yuan per mu. " Tao Shikang pointed to the hundred incense in front of him and said. The author looked in the direction he pointed to and saw rows of passion fruit vines neatly arranged, passion fruit vines wrapped around the vine, green one, fists big passion fruit hanging under the green leaves, emitting an attractive fruit fragrance.

It is reported that Tao Shikang is an out-and-out farmer who has been a party member for 21 years. Before, he did not find a way to get rich, but raised silkworms at home or went out to work to make a living. Until 2012, when a friend said that growing passion fruit made a lot of money, he came up with the idea of growing passion fruit. In 2013, he successfully planted more than 2 mu of passion fruit. Due to lack of experience, the fruit was not good in the first year, and the income per mu was less than 1000 yuan.

"if others can succeed, why can't I? What's the problem? If you want to give up when you encounter difficulties, are you still a party member? " He often asks himself to find out the reasons for his failure. After more than a year of hard work, he finally explored a set of good experience in planting passion fruit. After that, the yield per mu of passion fruit became higher and higher, and his income became more and more. Tao Shikang's story of growing passion fruit to get rich spread among the masses, and many people were not afraid of the long road and went deep into the mountains to learn from him.

Tao Shikang is rich, but his progress has not stopped. He thought, "it's hard to fight alone. How can you lead the villagers to get rich together?" So he thought of setting up a co-operative. In early 2016, with the joint efforts of che Jinguo, a villager in Dadongtun, he established the Dongtian passion fruit planting cooperative, the first passion fruit planting cooperative in Oudong Township, and at the same time mobilized poor families to join the cooperative. free of charge to provide members with technical training, agricultural procurement, product sales and other services. At present, the club has more than 32 members, including 5 poor households, driving 104 neighboring farmers to develop passion fruit industry. the planting area of passion fruit in the village has reached 824 mu. Passion fruit will be listed in October this year, and the income from planting passion fruit in the village is expected to reach more than 5 million yuan.

Qin Xuanlin, a member of a poor household, told me that last year he had a net income of 12000 yuan from planting two mu of passion fruit, which made him taste the benefits. This year, under the guidance of Tao Shikang, he joined the Dongtian passion fruit planting cooperative and expanded the planting of 4 mu of passion fruit, with an estimated income of more than 40,000 yuan. "it is expected to get rid of poverty and take off his hat this year."

"with Tao Shikang and other rural party members who have made contributions to poverty alleviation, there should be no problem for Miao Village to achieve the task of getting rid of poverty and taking off its hat this year." Lan Hua, secretary of the party committee of Oudong Township, said that in the next step, Oudong Township will continue to give full play to the vanguard and exemplary role of veteran rural party members in rural areas, actively explore new ways for farmers to shake off poverty and become rich in accordance with the entrepreneurial assistance model of "cooperatives + bases + farmers", and strive to lift all poor villages in the township out of poverty by 2018.
