On the afternoon of November 5, several people were wearing raincoats and rainpants to harvest lotus roots in more than 10 lotus root ponds connected to the ruhe barren beach of Gaotie Village, Shiqiao Town, Baofeng County. The huge lotus root is white and tender, which is very gratifying. Chen Wen, a 47-year-old villager who owns the lotus root pond, is also busy weighing, bagging and loading cars.

In April 2014, Chen Wen contracted 150 mu of river beach land in the village at a price of 80 yuan per mu, introduced lotus root seeds from Wuhan and built a lotus root pond of about 10 mu. After the Spring Festival this year, he built another 40 mu of lotus root pond. Through careful management, 50 mu of lotus root has grown up at present.

Chen Wen calculated an account for the reporter: an one-time investment of more than 10,000 yuan per mu of lotus root pond, calculated according to the yield of lotus root per mu of 5000 jin, the cost can be recovered in two years. Good weather this year, lotus root harvest, 7000 jin per mu, 50 mu of lotus root income at least more than 500,000 yuan. At the same time, Loach was raised in lotus root pond, and the ecological three-dimensional cultivation model of "lotus root + Loach" was adopted. the income of Loach solved the cost of land lease and manual management.

According to reports, there are more than 2700 people in Gaotie village, with an area of 2900 mu of arable land and more than 1300 mu of river beach. In 1995, the village contracted 1300 mu of river beach land to seven villagers with an annual contract period of 4500 yuan and a contract period of 30 years. At that time, the contract stipulated that sand mining and dredging, theft and excavation of resources and ecological destruction were not allowed, but only the development of aquaculture and planting was allowed.

"next year, I plan to build all the remaining 100 mu of river beach land into lotus root ponds, all of which will adopt the ecological three-dimensional planting and cultivation model of 'lotus root + Loach' to build a barren beach planting base in Beiru River, so that the beach land can also give full play to economic benefits." Chen Wen said confidently. (correspondent Yang Guodong, Lu Yanhui, reporter Ding Yuxue)
