Observatoire: in the context of rural renewal, anhui nam, a well-known “artistic country”, has developed artemisinin-specific industries through a variety of measures, promoting the development of small artemisinin as a major industry and becoming a dominant one for farmers to grow wealth。
At present, artemisinins are gradually mature, and villagers are busy picking and packing their bags at the new production base in the largest new village, the town of anhui province, where it is grown。
Sun hongtao, a farmer in the new village of xinnam county, anhui province: we have a good quality and a high price for artemisinin, and we have 3 acres of land to grow this year。
Unlike the villagers themselves in the past, the management of artemisinin, from planting to technology, marketing and quality control, is now carried out by local artemisinin-growing associations, with professional guidance at each production point。
As early as the 1990s, the cultivation of artemisinin began, and in a few years the area was rapidly growing to almost 10,000 acres. With the rapid expansion of the area and the surge in production, the impurities of small household operations, extensive management and variety are gradually emerging。
Zai myung-sung: this has led to an uneven quality of artemisinins, a fall in prices and a sharp decline in area (planting), which at one time contracted to over 100 acres, seriously affecting farmers' motivation to grow。
Peasants in the new village of xinang county, anhui province: i don't want to plant it if i can't sell it again。
In the past few years, there has been a great deal of discussion about how to revive the act industry to address the concerns of the villagers. In order to encourage the cultivation of artemisinin, the local government has begun by awarding 200 yuan per acre to new growers and 100 yuan per acre to new growers; entering into a warranty purchase agreement with growers and a purchase contract with distributors to address the problem of selling routes; and establishing professional farming associations to accommodate the most critical technical barriers。
Zhang wenbin, head of the artemisynthetic farming association, new village and township, anhui province: strict control of each production chain, unified planting, unified field management, uniform quality monitoring, and full-scale service, with farmers simply planting as required。
A series of successful initiatives not only dispelled the concerns of the villagers, but also evolved the local artemisinin industry. The area under artesian cultivation has grown to more than 17,000 acres throughout the county, leading to an increase of about $6,000 per person per year for some 15,000 farmers。
Zhang liang, secretary of the new village party, xinnan county, anhui province as markets become increasingly demanding for the quality of artemisinin, improving the quality and competitiveness of artemisinin and promoting the sustainable and high-quality development of the artemisinin industry becomes an urgent issue。
To that end, he has hired experts from the chinese university of agriculture to prepare a plan for the development of the artemisinin-based industry. He has actively announced areas of special agricultural advantage and a base for the supply of high-quality agricultural products in the long triangle to improve the overall quality of the industry. In addition, the local government, in collaboration with various research institutes such as nanjing university of agriculture, yangzhou university and anhui university of agriculture, provides technical support in breeding, planting and processing. At the same time, advanced facilities such as greenhouses and smart greenhouses have been developed。
Zhou junfang, head of the family farm in xiannan county, anhui province: with the technical support of experts, artemisinin quality has been upgraded to a level where the price (per pound) is more than a dollar higher in the market and the acres earn more than $100,000 and are on the path to high-quality development。
To date, almost 20,000 acres of artemisinin-based cultivation have been grown in changnan county, producing more than 32,000 tons of artemisinin-based per year and reaching more than 300 million tons per year, which is the dominant sector steadily contributing to rural renewal and increasing farmers ' enrichment。
Zhang jun moo: by the end of the 14th five-year plan, the area to be planted will be over 30,000 acres. At that time, the artemisinin industry will be created as a niche industry cluster for plantation processing, field tourism, cultural tourism and integration。
