The "Ecological Dream of getting Rich" of Taxus mairei in Ten years

When he saw Ye Shigen, the head of Zhejiang Lufeng Agriculture and Forestry Technology Co., Ltd., he was busy in the yew base. "as long as I have free time, I will come to the base and look at the green seedlings in a very good mood." Ye Shigen said. During the conversation, his words and deeds revealed the simple quality of daring to be the first and daring to endure hardships.

Ye Shigen, born in 1966 in Jiansheng Village, Shulong Town, is an authentic mountain baby. His strong independent character prompted him to walk out of the mountains and wander around the "rivers and lakes". After years of hard work, he earned the first bucket of gold in his life. He said with emotion: "success comes from a bold dream, the right direction and unremitting efforts."

In 2003, Ye Shigen founded Zhejiang Lufeng Agriculture and Forestry Technology Co., Ltd. Through meticulous market investigation and analysis, he chose the yew, known as the "plant giant panda", as the development direction of the characteristic industry, and established a long-term and good cooperative relationship with scientific research institutions and famous universities inside and outside the province. A number of experts and professors were hired to provide technical support to establish advanced seedling planting and breeding technology and market operation mechanism.

In those years, he plunged into the nursery base. Consult and learn from the well-known first-class enterprises in China, invite the guidance of scientific and technological personnel, learn everything from the beginning, explore carefully, and accumulate carefully. After many experiments, young seedlings finally grew on the nursery. With the experience of cultivating saplings, he not only expanded the nursery, but also began to lease mountain areas for afforestation of rare tree species. Finally, 25 bases and more than 10000 mu of rare tree species were established, weaving the yew's "dream of ecological prosperity".

"Taxus seedlings have considerable benefits, whether they are used as raw materials for medicine or as greening trees. I want to pass on the technology to more growers, so that more people can increase their income and become rich together. " Ye Shigen said. In order to provide technical guidance to yew farmers and enable them to obtain higher income, he continued to send yew to the outside world, with the help of superior authorities and scientific research institutions. "Technical regulations for the cultivation of Taxus mairei" was compiled, which was the first to set the local standard for the cultivation of Taxus mairei in Zhejiang Province, which made up for the lack of standardized technical standards for Taxus mairei cultivation in Zhejiang Province.

Through more than 10 years of development, Zhejiang Lufeng Agriculture and Forestry Science and Technology Co., Ltd. has become a collection of biotechnology research and development, flower seedlings planting, rare and endangered plant breeding, landscaping engineering design and construction, ecological cycle efficient breeding, agricultural leisure tourism as one of the comprehensive agricultural enterprises. Ye Shigen has also been elected vice president of Zhejiang Flower and Tree broker Branch, vice president of Zhejiang Greening Seedling Branch, president of Lishui Flower Association, and won honorary titles such as Zhejiang Agriculture and Forestry Science and Technology demonstration Household and Zhejiang Top Ten Seedling Brokers.
