"Internet + interplanting mode" makes Morchella have no shortage of market.

At present, Zheng Yuezhong, a young grower returning to his hometown in Fu'an City, Fujian Province, is busy harvesting and selling fresh Morchella. Putian, Quanzhou and other customers order through Wechat, Taobao and other platforms. Zheng Yuezhong said there is no need to worry about the sales of Morchella now.

Morchella is a high-end edible fungus with an oval shape. It is named because its surface is reticulate and slightly similar to the stomach of sheep. It is not only delicate and delicious, but also rich in more than 20 nutrients such as vitamins, proteins, amino acids and so on.

"according to market research, there are fewer places to grow Morchella in Fujian Province, and even fewer people have mastered the artificial planting technology of Morchella." After careful consideration, Zheng Yuezhong introduced Morchella strains from Deyang, Sichuan, and planted 14 mu of Morchella for the first time, including Chixi, Youwo and other seven pilot projects.

Morchella was planted not only in the grape shed, but also in the front and back of the villagers' houses. Looking at the gratifying growth of Morchella, visitors and edible fungus experts are very excited. "this is an experiment." Zheng Yuezhong said that his goal is to firmly grasp the growth of Morchella in various environments, so that planting under the forest can be more cost-effective in the future.

"as soon as the larger Morchella was harvested, the smaller one grew again, one crop after another. From now on, we will be able to collect until the end of April. " Zheng Yuezhong said happily that at present, this batch is growing gratifying and has produced a large number of mushrooms, and the output of Morchella tested is relatively high. It is estimated that Morchella can be interplanted in vineyards of more than 200 jin per mu, and the current market price is about 120-150 yuan per jin.

Interplanting Morchella under the vine

Songluo Township became the first township in Fujian Province to successfully interplant Morchella in vineyards. Because the growing period of Morchella is different from that of grapes, the hanging period of grapes is staggered. This method of interplanting brings a considerable income to fruit growers. The township is actively discussing how to introduce the ecological industry chain of Songluo late-ripening grape brand by the way of "company + cooperative + peasant household + e-commerce", so as to create an accurate circular economy model for the common people.

After the successful trial of Morchella, the news spread like wildfire. Many people came to take pictures.

As the first farmer to "eat crabs", after the first successful cultivation, Zheng Yuezhong was more optimistic about the development prospects of Morchella, and they were sure of their ability to provide technical, processing, circulation and other help to the surrounding villagers. With the support of the government and relevant departments, they are planning to discuss cooperation with villagers to radiate more than 3000 mu of greenhouse vineyards around them.
