Xizang Farmers in Lhasa: growing vegetables in greenhouse leads to Wealth

The weather was warm and cold again in March. At the Yangda Modern Facility Agricultural demonstration Park in Duilongdeqing District, Lhasa City, which relies on funds from Beijing to aid Tibet, people from nearby villages are arranging their land in vegetable sheds to prepare for planting this year.

When the reporter entered the vegetable greenhouse, Nianga, who was slightly disabled, was working with the workers. With a net income of 100,000 yuan last year, she was still living on the minimum living standard in 2014. Li Penghui, deputy director of the park management committee, told reporters that when the park was built in 2011, the township provided Nianga with a shed to grow vegetables free of charge, but it did not make a profit that year because of technical problems.

Niangga said: "the first batch of 200 sheds were distributed to the people who were expropriated, and the rent is very cheap compared with the market." However, people did not master the planting technology and did not make a profit, and they were basically returned to the government the following year. "

In order to solve the technical problems of vegetable cultivation, the park hired experts from the vegetable Research Institute of Xizang Autonomous Academy of Agricultural and Animal Husbandry Sciences to provide free technical guidance to the masses, and leased some sheds to migrant workers from the mainland to Xizang, in an effort to play an exemplary effect on the local people.

The next year, Nianga planted green peppers and tomatoes to make a profit. After tasting the sweetness, she contracted nine greenhouses in one breath with the help of the countryside. At present, Nianga has paid off the 100000 yuan owed to build a new house and has taken off the hat of poor families. her daughter has just been admitted to Ningxia Medical College. "the good days are just beginning," she said. "

It is understood that there are 360 greenhouses in the park, growing more than 40 kinds of cash crops, such as common vegetables, edible fungi, flowers, fruits, medicinal herbs and so on. In order to expand vegetable sales, Duilong Deqing District is specially equipped with three vegetable direct sales vehicles to purchase in the park, and an exhibition hall is set up at the gate of the park. Orders from units and schools make many vegetable buyers have no worries about sales.

Li Penghui calculated an account for the reporter: of the 865 mu of transferred land, the government has to pay more than 1 million yuan in land transfer funds every year; 11 people have regular posts in the park, each earning more than 20,000 yuan per year; and the park uses more than 4000 short-time workers a year. 100 yuan per person per day. Excluding planting income, the 124 households with land transfer have an average cash income of more than 10,000 yuan per household.

"if you only grow vegetables, each shed will have an average benefit of about 28000 yuan per year. At present, Ganoderma lucidum and other high value-added cash crops have been successfully tested in the park and are ready to be popularized and planted. People can not only get rid of poverty, but also become rich by relying on industrial parks. " Li Peng-hui said.
