Wu Piyu, a poor farmer, got on the "express train" of edible mushroom industrialization.

Change the cornfield into a shiitake mushroom shed and replace it with a remote control.

Wu Piyu, a villager from Liangjiagou Village, Shuangchi Town, Jiaokou County, used to grow corn with an annual income of more than 5000 yuan on 12 mu of land. Now the village committee uniformly sets up an edible mushroom greenhouse for poor households. Five or six parts of a greenhouse is used to cultivate shiitake mushrooms, earning more than 10,000 yuan in the first crop. On November 3, Wu Piyu, who was about to collect the second crop, said happily, "make money by doing this."

Wu Piyu, 43, is sick, his wife is also sick, and his two children are studying. Because his father died early, his mother, his younger sister who was going to college and his weak brother were also supported by him. His family has 12 mu of land, of which 4 mu is still mountainous. In previous years, he planted corn and his income was only more than 5000 yuan. The village subsidized him to buy a rotary tiller to cultivate land for the villagers, and his annual income was only 4,000 to 5,000 yuan. All the income is barely enough to feed the whole family.

In view of the current situation that traditional agriculture depends on heaven for food, and poor households have no technology, it is difficult to get rid of poverty. Last winter, Liangjiagou Village responded to the county's call to develop the sunrise industry-edible fungi in an industrial way, with a view to solving the poverty alleviation problem of 40 poor households. The village transferred 80 mu of arable land to the farmers at the cost of 150% of the output. Liang Junming, secretary of the village party branch, personally posted 300000 yuan, part of the fund raised by the masses, and part of the work team's advance, and invested a total of 1.46 million yuan to build 30 greenhouses in the first phase, giving priority to one for each poor household. The village invited technicians from Pingquan County, Hebei Province to give technical lessons, and spent 5000 yuan per month to hire technicians from Baoding City, Hebei Province to provide on-site guidance. Liang Junming himself went to Taiyuan City, Zhengzhou City and other cities to promote products, and recently fought for Minsheng Bank agricultural products to enter the community project to advertise edible fungi in the village free of charge.

After transferring his 8 mu corn field to the village collective last winter, Wu Piyu put down his spade, went into the greenhouse and devoted himself to shiitake mushrooms. He did not miss every technical training, whether in town or in the village. when he got home, he read books repeatedly, and if he didn't understand, he called technicians inside and outside the province for advice. He also raised more than 20,000 yuan to improve facilities, especially the addition of modern atomization pumps. More than a month ago, his efforts had a harvest. The first crop of Lentinus edodes in a greenhouse was ripe and sold for more than ten thousand yuan. He said: a batch of four crops, with a cycle of one year, can collect more than 30,000 yuan, to say the least.

Seeing Wu Pi-Yu manage the greenhouse properly, some time ago, Liang Chun-Ming paid 3000 yuan to contract another greenhouse for Wu Pi-Yu, and now the second greenhouse is about to produce mushrooms. Liang Junming said, "this man is serious. I support him and have confidence!"

Now, Wu Pi-Yu is even more busy with the two greenhouses, so he asks his mother, younger brother, and his brother who works for a living to help. However, he does not use them in vain, each paying a monthly salary of NT $1,56. On October 29, the reporter came to Liangjiagou village. Rows of greenhouses stand like factories at the head of the village. Wu Piyu pressed the button, and the automatic shutter on his greenhouse rolled up the insulation curtain. In the greenhouse, shelves, layers, a handful of sticks of Lentinus edodes live color and fragrance, air blower, fan, atomization pump, water pipe, electric button box and other facilities are well placed, just like a workshop. Wu Pi-Yu said proudly, "as a farmer, I have become the owner of the shiitake mushroom shed, just like the boss!"
