Right now, the harvest season of the ellewood shed potatoes. On 18 june, he entered the booming family farm in the village of huangtu liang, in kikhan town, liang district, where a potato shed was organized in full. Machine booms in the shed, small harvester shuttles, and farmers are busy placing fresh potatoes in boxes with busy images。

“our shed potatoes are mainly based on the shapoti variety, producing about 6,000 pounds per acre, as is the case with the open air, but the shed potatoes are on the market more than 40 days early, 5 cents more per accelerator than the open potatoes and 3,000 more per acre.” in order to ensure the production and quality of potatoes, the farms continue to increase their scientific and technological inputs, employ organic fertilizers and control water and fertilizer supplies with precision using the technique “down-to-minus drip + integration”. It is estimated that this year, 60 tons of potatoes will be produced, representing more than $200,000。

It is understood that since its establishment in 2016, the farm has been actively exploring techniques for the cultivation of large shed potatoes. The economic benefits are becoming more pronounced, starting with the initial experiment of planting a shed to build up experience and technology. Today, the farm has grown to about 20 acres and has led the surrounding villages to work together to build a total of 40 huts, which form a pattern of potato cultivation supported by the cha poti variety and the heisen-6 and potato-12 varieties。

The practice of the boom farm is a microcosm of the innovative promotion of the early spring potato greenhouse cultivation model in elm. The model, which was developed by the potato industry development centre of ellein city, is based on “the core of destoxification seeding, supported by greenhouse facilities, and the incremental form of replanting”, which effectively enhances production and quality. “the potato can achieve 30 per cent efficiency gains, 40 days in advance, and an increase of 30 per cent in the average acre earnings, through appropriate early seeding and the application of technology such as temperature control and wetting and precision manure management.” according to chen zaibin, agroemployer at the potato industry development centre, ellein city, land use efficiency and economic efficiency were further enhanced by planting vegetables such as peppers, spinachs and lettuces during the idle period after the potato harvest。

Elm is located on the southern edge of the mausul-sal, with soil estranged, luminous light and high temperature between day and night, and is the dominant potato-producing area. In recent years, ellein has been actively introducing pilot demonstration new varieties, along the lines of “ecological priorities, green development, industrial upgrading, high-quality and efficient” development, in order to deepen the demonstration of barrier-making, integration of intelligent water fertilizers and early spring greenhouses, to promote key technologies for efficiency gains in the production of hot potatoes in the north, high-yield potato production in the drylands and crop rotation, to strengthen the branding of potatoes in industry, to increase the scale, standardization and intensification of potato cultivation and to promote the upgrading of the entire chain of potatoes. At present, the city-wide potato cultivation has stabilized at 2 million acres, making it the second-largest food-stuff crop in the city after maize, producing more than 2. 6 million tons of fresh potatoes and exceeding 10 billion yuan in industrial chain value。
“in recent years, the early spring greenhouse cultivation model of potatoes has yielded some results in my city. As a next step, we will fully integrate smart water fertilizers, linked to such technologies as barrier-control, with a modest roll-out of the potato early spring greenhouse cultivation model in the regions where it is possible to provide a replicable model for efficiency gains in acacia agriculture.” zhang chunyan, director, potato industry development centre, ellein city。
