"the Book Sea panning for Gold" makes the Tomato King.

Wannian Village, Taian Township, Dongxing District, Neijiang City, Sichuan Province is a famous professional tomato growing village. The tomato varieties introduced by vegetable farmers have a yield of up to 8000 kg per mu. Here, the "tomato king" Jiang Yinyue is even more famous. Over the past 24 years, he has constantly set a new record of average net income per mu of tomatoes by constantly learning and trying, and has also become a leader in the study and use of science by local vegetable farmers.

A book brings a bumper harvest

In the spring of 1985, 17-year-old Jiang Yinyue worked at home after graduating from junior high school. My father set aside two plots for him to try out. "one jin of tomatoes can be exchanged for one jin of rice." The phrase "Longmen Array" from the villagers made Jiang Yinyue eager to try. At that time, he tried to plant 2% of the tomatoes.

However, due to the lack of knowledge of agricultural technology, only more than 100 kilograms of tomatoes were harvested in 2 fen land.

"when books are in use, they hate less!" Jiang Yinyue learned that if there is no technology, no matter how valuable things are, you can't make money. Since then, Jiang Yinyue will transfer to the bookstore every time he goes to the city, and every time he will buy books related to tomato planting techniques.

Jiang Yinyue expanded the original 2-cent land to half an mu, because of the use of film mulching technology, this year, the output of half an mu reached more than 2000 kilograms, with an income of 1400 yuan.

A leader leads an industry.

Jiang Yinyue, who achieved little success, never forgot to keep on studying. Over the past few years, he has successively subscribed to more than a dozen newspapers and magazines, such as Sichuan Rural Daily, China vegetable cultivation, and Pest Control, and not only learned to master a variety of planting techniques, but also learned the market trends for the first time.

In the spring of 1990, Jiang Yinyue expanded the planting area again and tried tomato cultivation in a small arch shed, with an output value of more than 3000 yuan on 7-cent land.

Although Jiang Yinyue has benefited from the bumper harvest brought by the new technology, the arid climate of "ten years of nine disasters, ten disasters and nine droughts" in hilly areas has always been a difficult problem for the local planting industry.

"how to deal with the drought without affecting the output?" He, who is good at learning, also found the answer from the book-a technique called greenhouse paddy field cultivation can control plant growth by controlling the temperature in the greenhouse, achieve the effect of early spring and delayed autumn, and increase income by thousands of yuan per mu by playing the "time difference." in addition, this technology provides a relatively independent growth space for crops, which not only improves the ability of crops to cope with natural disasters, but also greatly improves the effect of pest prevention and control.

At present, the area of tomatoes planted by Jiang Yinyue has been expanded to 1.8 mu, and the annual income of tomatoes alone can reach more than 30,000 yuan. Led by him, more and more local vegetable farmers are accepting and using new technologies, and Wannian Village has become a famous professional tomato growing village.
