Weng Shaoxiong, a vegetable dealer in Guangzhou, is even more busy, organizing more than 10 tons of vegetables to be sent to the Guangzhou market every day. Like the old man, there are more than 10 vegetable dealers from Beijing, Tianjin and other places resident in the market. According to reports, since the market opened in May this year, more than 5000 tons of greenhouse vegetables have been traded, all of which have been sold to Beijing, Tianjin, Guangdong and other major cities, bringing more than 15 million yuan of income to local farmers.

In recent years, Jixian County has made great efforts to develop green and efficient modern facility agriculture by focusing on building an urban modern agricultural industrial system. In 2007, the county and Shandong Shouguang established Tianjin Luyi Manor vegetable Co., Ltd. in Houjiaying Town, which attracted the majority of farmers to join the cooperative by implementing the industrialization model of "company + base + farmers". Up to now, more than 1000 farmers in Houjiaying Town have joined the cooperative to build sheds.

Facility agriculture is gradually becoming large-scale, but how to sell it to farmers is also troubling the government. In order to solve the "selling difficulty", they invest 100 million yuan to plan and build an agricultural product logistics park covering an area of 300 mu. As an important part of logistics, it has invested 10 million yuan to build a vegetable producing wholesale market covering an area of 40 mu, with two 300m3 cold storage, a 1450 square meter vegetable inspection shed, and complete facilities such as water, electricity, road and other supporting facilities.

The improvement of the market and the smooth flow of sales channels have enhanced the confidence of local farmers in developing facility agriculture. Vegetable farmer Chen Yonghong said that he had been selling dry wood in the past. after introduction in the town and a field visit to Shouguang, Shandong Province, he felt that the vegetable greenhouse had great prospects for development, so he cooperated with others and invested 1.5 million yuan to build a 200-mu greenhouse to grow vegetables. When asked by a reporter whether he was worried about investing so much money, Chen Yonghong said bluntly: "good policies, good varieties, and good sales. There is nothing to worry about. It is no problem to recover the investment in three years."
