Hu Yusheng, 42, is the director of the village committee of Sandang Village, Shuyang County, Jiangsu Province. Under the influence of growing flowers and getting rich in the surrounding villages, since 1996, he has built a nursery in his more than 2 mu responsible field and tasted the sweetness of making money. The planting area of flowers and trees has been expanding, reaching more than 60 mu, with an annual income of more than 300000 yuan in recent years.

In March 1996, the town organized town and village cadres to observe the planting of characteristic flowers and trees in the local flower and tree planting village. Miao farmers said: "if one mu of characteristic flowers and trees are well managed, the annual net income can reach more than 10,000 yuan, usually between 6000 and 8000 yuan." At that time, Hu Yusheng was very surprised by this figure and thought it was incredible. Because at that time, the net income of growing vegetables, cotton and other cash crops was only about 1000 yuan per mu, which was only 1% of the net income of characteristic flowers and trees, while the benefit of growing grain was even lower. Through the market survey, we know that there is a great demand for greening seedlings in many large and medium-sized cities. As a result, he came up with the idea of planting characteristic flowers and trees.

When he got home, he began to build a nursery for soil preparation, set up a small hotbed or use a sunshade net to raise seedlings. He spent more than 4000 yuan on flowers and trees that were not available in Shuyang at that time, such as golden locust, red maple, steamed bread willow, purple leaf plum, Phnom Penh boxwood, and so on, set up a small greenhouse, and raised nearly 8000 seedlings in more than 2 mu of responsible fields. In the spring of the following year, more than 3000 seedlings were sold at the same time, and more than 5000 yuan was recovered. With this more than 5000 yuan, he covered more than 3 mu of land, further expanded the planting area of flowers and trees, and bought special flowers and trees such as albizzia, Liriodendron chinense, and Carpinus chinensis to breed. In 2001, after he expanded the planting scale to 24 mu, he started three-dimensional planting of flowers and trees in the flower bed, interplanting small trees, hedges, shrubs and ground cover plants in large trees, or interplanting similar flowers and trees of different seedling ages. Every year, there are small and larger seedlings, which is not only conducive to the renewal of flower and tree varieties, but also improve economic benefits. At present, the benefit of his three-dimensional flowers and trees planting has reached 14000 yuan per mu, an increase of 40% compared with single planting, and has greatly improved the utilization rate of land. This spring, his planting area has expanded to 62 mu, selling more than 100,000 flowers and trees with various characteristics and earning nearly 180000 yuan.

In recent years, under his demonstration and drive, all farmers and all farmland in the village have been planted with characteristic flowers and trees, and have become a famous village of flowers and trees in the whole county and even the whole city, with an annual income of more than 20,000 yuan per household. He also taught the villagers new cultivation techniques free of charge, worked hard to introduce new varieties of flowers and trees with good market conditions and high economic benefits, and provided a series of pre -, mid -, and post-natal services for seedling farmers in the village. Now he has set up a village flower and tree association, which teaches technology to seedling farmers once a week, collects information on new varieties and market prices of flowers and trees through the Internet, and provides them to seedling farmers, so as to further improve the grade and efficiency of flower and tree production in the village. to help villagers get rich together.
