Wang Jun, a cooperative legal person, contacts the sales business of Chinese wolfberry.

Pick Chinese wolfberry

"Don't underestimate a small bag of four or two, it's more than 20 yuan!" Wang Jun, a legal person of Lvchuan Si wolfberry farmers' professional cooperative, who is packing Chinese wolfberry, said to the author. Recently, the author came to Qianjin Village, Si Town, and heard that what everyone talked about most was the income of Chinese wolfberry this year and the plan for next year.

It is more secure to grow Chinese wolfberry to increase income.

There are more than 480 families in Qianjin village, with less than 3 mu of arable land per capita, coupled with the salinity of the soil, nothing can grow well, and increasing income has always been a problem. However, on this saline beach, Chinese wolfberry grows big and full and of good quality. in addition, Chinese wolfberry is a traditional industry here, with guaranteed technology and good market evaluation, so it has become the best choice for local people to get rich.

"in recent years, the price of Chinese wolfberry is good, the average price is more than 20 yuan, and the enthusiasm of farmers is very high." Wang Jishun, secretary of the party branch of Qianjin Village in Si Town, has been growing Chinese wolfberry for several years. This year, he planted more than 3 mu of Chinese wolfberry and produced more than 1700 jin of dried fruit. When the market is good, Chinese wolfberry can sell for 23 yuan per jin. In this way, the gross income is more than 40,000, and he plans to grow a few more mu next year.

"it is really good to grow Chinese wolfberry. If there were no money earned by growing Chinese wolfberry, it would be unthinkable for me to turn an adobe house into a brick house. " Wang Jianbing, one of the eight groups in the village, pointed to his newly built brick house. There are 4 people in Wang Jianbing's family, less than 12 mu of land. If you only grow sunflower and corn, it will be difficult to save money. He has contracted another 10 mu of land this year, and plans to grow another 3 mu of wolfberry next year, so that life will be more well-off.

Unified delivery, processing and packaging to join the cooperative to increase Qi Nong's profits by another 70%

"in the past, there were no co-operatives, and Chinese wolfberry growers were so small and scattered that they could not become a climate." Yang Haiming, a town cadre, said, "now that there is a cooperative, the planting area and scale of Chinese wolfberry is getting larger and larger, the cost of raising sheep and cattle, housing conditions and living standards have also been improved, and the folkways of the village have been much better."

Wang Chengwei, head of the Lvchuan Si Wolfberry Farmers' Professional Cooperative, said that the cooperative now has more than 120 peasant households. Every year, farmers hand over Chinese wolfberry to the cooperative for unified purchase, and the cooperative processes, packages and sells it to the market. This process reduces a lot of intermediate links, and each jin can also increase profits by 70%, which is about 1 yuan higher than that of other farmers who have not joined the cooperative. The cooperative also coordinated China Insurance to provide farmers with 500 yuan per mu of wolfberry loans, providing another layer of protection for farmers' income. Now Si Town has also created a thousand mu of organic Chinese wolfberry demonstration film, which provides a guarantee for the development of Chinese wolfberry to high-quality, high-end market.

It is understood that Si Town has an area of nearly 106000 mu of arable land, of which the area of planting Chinese wolfberry is 23000 mu, and the varieties planted by most farmers are Ningqi No. 1, No. 7 and No. 9. In 2015, the total output of Chinese wolfberry in the town reached 7.5 million kilograms, and it is estimated that the planting area of Chinese wolfberry in the town will increase by another 3000 mu in 2016.
