Developing Hawthorn planting to become Rich people in Beiyang Village, Jiangxian County

"unexpectedly, the red fruit turned into a string of money." Beiyang Village, Gujiang Town, which is known as "Beiyang Hawthorn in the world," the villagers have a habit of Hawthorn, but what the villagers did not expect is that the "red fruit", which was not very conspicuous in the past, is becoming more and more valuable year by year, and everyone's enthusiasm for developing Hawthorn is also getting higher and higher year by year. Zhou Wenxing, who is also secretary of the village party branch, said: "Last year, the output of Hawthorn in the village reached 1.5 million kg, with an income of more than 50, 000. This year, it is expected to reach 2 million kilograms, and the income of villagers will exceed 3 million yuan, with a per capita income of more than 3300 yuan. I didn't expect that the red fruit would really turn into a string of money. " Compared with ordinary growers, Shi Naiwu's income is even more substantial. As one of the few early Hawthorn growers in Beiyang Village, he was also a broker in the village. In addition to selling his own Hawthorn, he also helped other fruit growers contact the market, earning an extra 30,000 to 50,000 yuan a year. In order to store, Gao Xiaosuo, another Hawthorn broker in the village, also built a cold storage with a capacity of 300m3 and a storage capacity of 125000 kilograms of Hawthorn, so that his income could reach more than 100,000 yuan. "the market consciousness of Beiyang people is strong!" There are 904 people in Beiyang village, and the planting area of Hawthorn is more than 1300 mu, accounting for 94% of the total arable land in the village. Hawthorn has been cultivated in Beiyang Village for more than 20 years. Like the situation in other places, Beiyang people have also experienced the impact of falling market prices, Hawthorn can not be sold, and some villagers have cut down trees in tears. In the most depressed times, there are only more than 100 mu of Hawthorn trees left in the village. In 1997, Shanxi Weizhiwang Food Co., Ltd., a leading local enterprise, signed a reserve price recovery contract with Beiyang fruit growers. Hawthorn prices began to rise and the planting area continued to grow. Now, Hawthorn has become the pillar industry of Beiyang Village. The village has been named "High-quality Hawthorn Base" and "National High-quality Seedling Base" by the Ministry of Agriculture. Beiyang Village has become the first example of planting Hawthorn in the county, and the villagers have also tasted the sweetness of Hawthorn. Talking about the history of Hawthorn in Beiyang Village, Dong Jiqiang, deputy magistrate of Jiangxian County Government, said: "the market consciousness of Beiyang people is strong!" "We are exposed to the light of science and technology!" In the face of praise from leaders, the villagers of Beiyang Village always say modestly: "We are the light of science and technology!" In September 2006, the Hawthorn Science and Technology Cooperative was established in Beiyang Village. Since then, the Hawthorn industry in the village has stepped into the fast lane of scientific and technological, large-scale and beneficial development. In terms of planting technology, the cooperative relies on the Institute of Fruit trees of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Northwest Science and Technology University of Agriculture and Forestry and the Institute of Horticulture of Shanxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and takes "science and technology guidance, expert participation; voluntary participation, democratic management; joint market, lower joint farmers; whole-process service, benefit sharing" as the service tenet, from the cultivation of fruit seedlings to the sale of fruit, the implementation of prenatal, mid-production and post-natal "one-stop" service for farmers. Under the guidance of experts, cooperatives regularly educate fruit farmers on the prevention of diseases and insect pests and the promotion of new Hawthorn technology and new varieties, and actively broaden the channels for farmers to get rich, extend the Hawthorn industrial chain, and increase production and income. Today, Beiyang Village has built a thousand mu green Hawthorn base, not only signed a long-term insurance purchase agreement with the "King of Wei" and other local food processing enterprises, but also sold Hawthorn to Shandong, Hebei and other places, really turning small Hawthorn into a big industry.
