My home is in zhao county, the "town of sydney, china"。
Home from the fourth of july, a professional cooperative in the zhao district of zhu zhu huui pago growing along the new route. The pear of the branch is already yellow, and many tourists are picking grass。
"the owner of the pear garden is certainly not a hard-working man. Why don't you even have grass?" it's not the childhood memory of me drilling in a pear garden。
Getting out of the car, trying to find out, and i'm surprised to hear the phrase, "sell it one by one, 10 bucks a piece, and everyone can taste the smell of pear."
"it was all boxed up before. Why now?" i was surprised to see my face, and the head of the cooperative, li shihui, said, "for sale by box, it's all old history. Now, we're squeezing the taste of tourists and moving towards quality."
Zhao county is well known for its production of “big punch, sweet as honey, soft as oil.” there are 250,000 acres of pear fruit grown throughout the county, of which 137,000 acres are grown by pear. However, since the 1990s, the taste of sydney in zhao county has become “silent”: in pursuit of production, many pear farmers put fertilizer and water on pear trees, pushing their heads and weight. Production has increased, sugar is scarce and tastes far less than before. As a result, sales prices fell and markets were shrinking. Some pear farmers have planted crops, others have been converted to other varieties, and zhao county's sydney brand is “shaking”。
One day, li shihui, who worked in the pear distribution market in beijing, saw a message from friends: with a view to revitalizing the zhao county's sydney industry, zhao county has been instrumental in supporting the building of cooperative farmers' organizations, bringing together a single self-managed, decentralized farming household, leading to the implementation of the six integrated management models “uniform technical standards, unified production management, unified farming acquisition, uniform packaging collection, uniform storage processing, uniform brand sales”, the full promotion of standardized production techniques and the upgrading of the quality of pear fruit products。
“i was so excited to hear that i grew up in the pear district. In 2015, i decided to go back to my country, to contract nearly 600 acres of pear gardens through land transfer, to establish a professional cooperative for the cultivation of zhao's zhihu hui pear fruit, and to set up a marketing base for zhao's pear fruit in beijing's new distribution market.” lee said。
In order to recover the taste of pear from childhood, li xhihui's pear garden uses earthworm organic fat, lumberlights are physically infested, and various grasses are deliberately planted under the forest。
"the grass under the forest can be effective in reducing pests and pests, and weeds can be used as fertilizer in the field." li zhihui smiled that the changes in planting patterns, while increasing costs, had addressed the problems of land sheeting and poor fruit formation, and that the quality of pear had improved dramatically through the planting of grass, fruit berries and bags, and sugar in pear。
“inside and out, rather than losing, the gains are much greater. It's more important that the pear is not sold. It's long overdue." under the leadership of li chihui, the pear farmers of the neighbouring villages of pumpkin, changshin i and changshin ii joined the cooperative, with radiation-led cultivation exceeding 2,000 acres。
According to lee, pear sales are only the first step, and the next step is to explore new farming practices such as “tap on the flower + recreation + leisure in the field” and to develop forest-planting projects such as pear deep-processed products and piping eng tea, to diversify the industrial chain and enrich the snowflake industry in zhao county, through deeper integration in one or two products.
