Huilongwei encourages farmers to grow Siraitia grosvenorii to get rich

The development of citrus industry in Huilongwei has become mature. can we plant new varieties in Huilongwei that are suitable for development and drive people to get rich? With this problem in mind, on the afternoon of January 8, Zhao Wenwang, secretary of the party committee of the Hui Longwei Management District, led the person in charge of the relevant departments of the district to go deep into Huangjia Village, Longwei Town to investigate the planting of Siraitia grosvenorii.

"Last year, Huang Ping, a villager of Huangjia group in our town, introduced Siraitia grosvenorii seedlings and planted 8 mu, which was a success. The yield and benefit per mu exceeded the output of ordinary orange orchards. Now many farmers are willing to introduce them, and there will be a new adjustment in the town's industrial structure." Wang Xinde, secretary of the party committee of Longwei Town, introduced it to Secretary Zhao. At Huang Ping's Siraitia grosvenorii planting base, Secretary Zhao learned more about his 2015 planting scale, planting techniques, input and output, market benefits, as well as the difficulties in planting Siraitia grosvenorii in Huilongwei.

"Siraitia grosvenorii, also known as immortal fruit, is mainly produced in Guangxi, is a kind of medicine, we are close to Guangxi, the climate is suitable, I tried to introduce seedlings for planting, did not expect the benefit is much better than growing oranges." "because of my one-year planting experience, I have mastered most of the planting techniques, and there are no technical problems." "I will expand my acreage in 2016 and lead other farmers to plant on a large scale to form my own industry and brand." Huang Ping answered Secretary Zhao's question confidently.

Zhao Wenwang, secretary of the district party committee, said happily: "Citrus is a brand industry in the management area, but if the industrial structure is single, the risk will increase. We must now encourage people to actively develop the secondary industry and let farmers in Huilongwei get rich through multiple channels. If planting Siraitia grosvenorii can become a way for people to get rich, our government departments should increase publicity, strengthen technical guidance, give policy support, and through everyone's efforts. Make Siraitia grosvenorii industry another resounding signboard of Huilongwei.
