Qiaohe Village is a village of Shihuiqiao Town, Shayang County, Jingmen City, Hubei Province, which is famous for growing vegetables. The wholesale vegetable markets in Chongqing, Chengdu, Changsha, Jingzhou and Yichang carry a lot of weight. Qiaohe village vegetable farmers grow only three kinds of vegetables, hollow cabbage, chives and celery, the village more than 6000 mu of land, vegetable land accounts for more than 4000 mu.

As a matter of fact, it is not too difficult to grow vegetables. Many villages and towns around them grow vegetables, but they just can't cross the bridge river. Bosses selling vegetables in Chongqing, Chengdu, Changsha, Jingzhou and other places, as long as they sell these three kinds of vegetables, all run to Qiaohe.

The reporter recently visited Qiaohe Village and specifically asked Chen Xianyun, secretary of the village party branch and chairman of the village vegetable cooperative, where is the trick of Qiaohe?

With scale, there is a market.

In the history of Qiaohe, the two small villages of Shuangyang and Qiaohe merged into a large village. Once Shuangyang people had the habit of growing vegetables, but the scale has been small. After the merger of the two villages in 2005, the village committee team wanted to do something and set their sights on growing vegetables. But Chen Xianyun mobilized everyone for several years, but did not move, which made him very puzzled.

The investigation found that the problem lies in the lack of concentration of the fields. In the early days of land contracting, in order to be fair, good or bad, one mu of land could be divided into several places. The largest family has more than 10 mu of land, which is divided into 26 places. The villager pulled him and said, what a good way to grow vegetables! It turns out that growing vegetables is no more demanding than other crops, with high requirements for water and fertilizer, lack of concentration of land, lack of access to water and electricity, and difficult to grow, so it is difficult to achieve benefits.

"adjust the way the land is divided!" Chen Xianyun is determined to merge arable land on a household basis, so that everyone can plant fields that save worry and effort. But a hundred people, all kinds of people. Most of the villagers are happy, but a few quit. What shall I do?

"if the monkey doesn't go up the tree, hit the gong a few more times!" Chen Xianyun just runs from house to house and does his work. The hearts of people are full of flesh, and soon everyone agreed to change. Each group takes the group as the unit, delimits according to the paddy field, the depression, the pond, the dry land, draws lots to determine the block, each household all the land concentrates in one place. Those who are willing to raise fish catch ponds, those who are willing to grow vegetables and rice, those who catch paddy fields, depressions and dryland.

The fields have been straightened out, and in less than three years, the scale of growing vegetables in the village greenhouse has grown from less than 1000 mu to more than 4000 mu. As soon as the scale increased, the bosses who sold vegetables came uninvited.

Qiaohe people only grow three kinds of vegetables.

After years of groping, Qiaohe people have found that three kinds of local vegetables grow best, namely, hollow cabbage, chives and celery.

Later, at the meeting of the cooperative, it was decided to grow only three kinds of vegetables and specialize them. Scale alone is not enough, but also have to grow well, grow green vegetables, grow organic vegetables, people are willing to come.

Lu Renjun, the owner of the vegetable vendor in Chongqing, said that the hollow vegetables of the Qiaohe people are neat and clean, without medicine or chemical fertilizer, shallot grows smooth and smooth, and celery is tender and delicious without tendons.

Take asparagus as an example, Qiaohe people simply grow to the extreme. After the celery was harvested in winter, the fields were covered with a thick layer of pig manure and a thin layer of cake fertilizer, and began to grow hollow vegetables. As soon as the Spring Festival is over, you can pinch the first hollow vegetable, you can pinch until June, six or seven, and the most can pinch eight. With each pinch, you only need to sprinkle water to send out the stubble. In other words, one mu of greenhouse vegetables in Qiaohe is equivalent to the output of six or seven mu of vegetable land.

Chen Xianyun excitedly told us that the Cantonese used to grow asparagus, but later many vegetable farmers did not grow them at all. Because the food owners in Guangzhou have improved their dishes.

He clenched his fingers, one mu of land, growing asparagus from January to June, spring onions from July to September, celery from September to December, and three kinds of vegetables reincarnation. The net income per mu could reach 20,000 yuan. Many people bought commercial houses in Jingmen City and almost every family bought a car.

If you sell vegetables, you have to "catch up with the fresh".

During the interview, the reporter came to the greenhouse vegetable area of Qiaohe Village at 0: 00 in the morning. Despite the rain, the vegetable shed lit up dimly.

Yang Hongyin, member of the standing Committee of the Shayang County CPC Committee and minister of propaganda, pointed to the lights and told reporters that all those with lights were picking vegetables.

"Why do you have to pick it all night?"

"catch up with the fresh. Asparagus wilts easily. I picked it in the evening, got on the bus early in the morning, and sent it to Jingzhou vegetable Wholesale Market in an hour. Even if it is delivered to Chongqing and Changsha, it only takes five or six hours, and the food is fresh in the hands of the public. "

When I opened the curtain of a greenhouse door, I saw two light bulbs hanging inside. Five grandmothers of about 60 years old were sitting in a row on the vegetable field, intently pinching vegetables one by one. The 65-year-old Zhang Chenghui is from a nearby five or eight village. his grandchildren are old enough to worry about it. She told us that she came to Qiaohe Village to pick up food on the third day of the first lunar month.

Zhou Xuehua, 54, is from Jinji Village, Zengji Town, and his home is 30 miles from Qiaohe. She came here on March 19, renting a house in a nearby town and walking two or three kilometers to pick up vegetables every night. From zero o'clock to six or seven o'clock in the morning, you can pinch three or four hundred jin of vegetables a night, and you can get a wage of 65 yuan.

At 06:30 in the morning, the reporter came to Qiaohe again. The wide cement road in the center of the greenhouse was already a hot scene, and 20 or 30 trucks were busy loading vegetables.

Chen Xianyun, who had been picking vegetables all night, said the first thing he said when he saw the reporter: "I'm not talking big, am I?" But for the rain, there would be more cars and people. When the weather is fine, 500 or 600 old women come to us to pick vegetables every day, and 40 to 50 trucks go to export food.
