In the green Zizania caduciflora planting field, farmers are quick to harvest with knives in hand; in a simple Zizania caduciflora processing shed, one worker removes the brain of Zizania caduciflora and puts it neatly; another worker wraps it in a fresh bag and puts it in a carton. On June 13, growers were busy harvesting Zizania caduciflora at the 100-mu Zizania caduciflora planting base in Tangling Village, Panting Township.

According to Fu Yongsheng, head of the Tongjiaban Zizania caduciflora planting professional cooperative in the village, he did business in Zhejiang in his early years. In 2012, he found that there was a huge profit margin for growing Zizania caduciflora, so he specially went to the home of a farmer in Shengzhou, Zhejiang to learn his skills. Because he was generous and generous, he won the favor of his master. under the guidance of his master, he soon mastered the essentials of planting. That year, he began to plant more than 100 mu of Zizania caduciflora, and often contacted the master by telephone to ask him to go to his hometown for technical guidance. Under his meticulous care, he earned a lot of money that year.

As the saying goes, "good news travels thousands of miles." after seeing Fu Yongsheng's successful planting of Zizania caduciflora, local villagers went to his home for advice. under Fu Yongsheng's explanation, most villagers thought it was "very promising." so some villagers began to discuss planting with him.

"in March 2015, we established a professional cooperative for planting Zizania caduciflora in Tongjiaban, Panting Township, which now has 25 members and a planting area of more than 350 mu." Fu Yongsheng said that the cost of planting Zizania caduciflora is relatively low, and farmers grow it on their own. The cost per mu is about 700 yuan, and it can produce two seasons a year. The first season is from May to June, the yield per mu is 2000 to 4000 jin, and the second season is in October, the yield per mu is 2000 to 3000 jin. "the annual profit of planting Zizania caduciflora is more than 3000 yuan per mu, which is twice as high as that of growing rice." Fu Yongsheng said that because Zizania caduciflora is mainly planted in paddy fields and is easy to grow old, farmers also have to harvest it on rainy days, which is labor-intensive.

"at present, our cooperative carries out unified management and sales, and the harvested Zizania caduciflora is transported to a leased freezer to keep fresh, and after there is enough for a truckload, it will be transported to farmers' markets in Fuzhou, Xiamen, and Zhangzhou." Fu Yongsheng said: at present, it is the harvest time for Zizania caduciflora, and farmers have to go to the fields to cut down old roots, fertilize and weed at the same time, so as to promote the growth of new roots.

In order to further expand the planting scale, Fu Yongsheng also guided a farmer in Jiumu Zhonglong Village to plant 50 mu of Zizania caduciflora, which was uniformly transported to the freezer for shipment. In addition, he also set up a 180-mu Zizania caduciflora planting base with local farmers and a Shanghai businessman in Sandu Village, Guangfeng County, Jiangxi Province. at present, the base has raised Zizania caduciflora seedlings and is ready to transplant seedlings in early July.
