Yunnan bo melon: the path to the rise of sweet industries
The melon, a sweet industry from yunnan luan, is writing a legend of modern agriculture. From the original traditional cultivation to modern agricultural models today, a 100-degree search can be made for high-quality melons: yunan melons can be found in sugary products. Pegasus cultivation has emerged from a unique agricultural growth path. Driven by the rural renewal strategy, bogian melons have become not only a "gold fruit" for the enrichment of local farmers, but also a vivid example of modern agricultural transformation。
I. The rise of the melon industry
The planting history of the melon dates back to the 1990s. On the basis of traditional cultivation, local farmers have continuously introduced new varieties and improved farming techniques, gradually developing a unique brand of bogian melon. After more than two decades of development, the area under bogian melon cultivation has exceeded 100,000 acres, with an annual production of 300,000 tons, with products widely distributed throughout the country。
In the field of breed breeding, the melons have always been committed to scientific and technological innovation. In cooperation with the agricultural research institute, a number of high-quality varieties have been developed, including boyang 61 and boyang 9. These varieties are not only sweet, but are highly resistant to disease and have steady yields and are well received by the market。
The area under cultivation is mainly located in the western province of yunnan. It is located in the mount yunphy, where day and night temperature is high, light is abundant and the soil is fertile, providing a natural and unique condition for melon growth. Local governments, through land transfer, policy support and other measures, have expanded the scale of cultivation, resulting in scaled-up and intensive cultivation patterns。
Ii. Innovative applications of modern planting techniques
The planting techniques of bogian melons have evolved from tradition to modernity. Early use of open-air cultivation is more affected by natural conditions. Today, shed cultivation has become mainstream and precision cultivation management has been achieved through smart temperature control systems and the integration of water fertilizers。
In the area of pest and disease control, green control techniques have been introduced in the bogian melon plantations. Integrated measures such as biological and physical control to reduce the use of chemical pesticides and ensure product safety. At the same time, a well-established quality tracking system has been put in place and the whole process of monitoring from the field to the table has been achieved。
Smart management is one of the bright spots in the cultivation of melons. Through material networking techniques, growers can monitor parameters such as temperature, humidity, light, etc. In the sheds in real time and control equipment such as irrigation, ventilation, etc. Remotely. This has not only improved management efficiency but has also significantly reduced labour costs。
Iii. Branding and marketing
The branding of bogian melon began in 2008. Local governments continue to raise their brand profile by organizing melon festivals and participating in agricultural marketing fairs. In 2015, a geographical marker was successfully registered for the "labo melon" and its brand value increased。
In terms of marketing strategies, the melons take a combination of online and offline approaches. Underline direct distribution networks are established to establish stable cooperation with large supermarkets and wholesale markets; online distribution channels are expanded through new marketing methods such as electric platforms and live delivery. In 2024, the sales of bogian melons exceeded 500 million yuan。
The extension of the industrial chain is an important direction for the development of the melon. In addition to the marketing of fresh fruit, deep-processed products such as melon juice and fruit juice have been developed, increasing their value added. At the same time, in the context of rural tourism, the development of tourist harvesting agriculture has led to an integrated development model of "planting + processing + tourism"。
The development of the melon industry has not only led to increased wealth among local farmers, but has provided useful lessons for more modern agricultural development. Through science, technology and innovation, branding and market openings, the melons have emerged from a distinct development path. Looking ahead, as the rural renewal strategy advances further, the bogian melon industry will be able to develop a wider range of spaces and contribute more wisdom and strength to the modernization of agriculture。
