In winter, technical staff from the district redtree technology service centre are training villagers in the techniques of date cutting, winter care, etc., in a demonstration park for red-tree production in the rutak district of xinjiang uighur autonomous region。
“this date-palm is mainly based on ash dates, with teapot dates, dates, etc., and acre dates of 700 to 800 kilograms, up to a maximum of 1,000 kilograms.” the secretary-general of the uttamu party, li koang, has grown over 28,000 acres, producing more than 8,500 tons in 2023, leading to an increase of more than 1,300 date-farmers。
In the past spring, there have been many sandstorms in ruhui county between the takramagan desert and the kumutag desert. In 2001, a study by the relevant departments in ruoxian county found that the mangrove tree was drought-resistant and radiant and hot, and that the fruit tree period coincided with spring dust and wind. It has been further demonstrated that joao county has begun to develop the red-tree industry and that there are now 23. 38 million acres of red-tree cultivation throughout the county, which has not only boosted farmers but also improved the local ecological environment。
“in 2023, my family harvested 66 tons of red dates with a net income of 340,000.” zhao libin, a villager in yule, uthamu village, has over 20 years of experience in growing red-trees, has grown 20 acres of dates in his home and has contracted 80 acres of dates in the surrounding villages。
“in recent years, the price of the date has continued to decline with the rapid increase in the area under cultivation.” in order to improve the market competitiveness of the red palms, the deputy secretary-general and director-general of the rural and rural directorate of the county of ruhui said that, since 2017, the canton had initiated the implementation of the red palms upliftment project, and that the county's finances had allocated 10 million yuan a year to supplement the funds, encouraging the guiding of date-farmers to take measures such as the transfer of date-palm trees and the application of farm fattening, among other things, to promote the quality of the red dates。
“today, red dates must not only pursue production but also focus more on quality in order to reap better returns.” according to zhao lenbin, on a quarterly basis, there are on-site meetings in the countryside for the care of red-trees, inviting agricultural experts and technical cadres to provide technical guidance and training, such as date-sorting and organic fertilizer。
The workers were busy cleaning, selecting red dates, and then shipping in boxes. Since 2022, it has been possible to create modern state agricultural estates, which have now resulted in a project for the processing of refined products such as date wine, date mud, date vinegar, date beverages and date-based food fibres, with a total production value of $5,301 million in 2023。
“we will use the construction of modern agricultural estates in the country as a tool to effectively enhance the market value and competitiveness of red palms and make the brand of red palms strong.” according to huang xinping, the secretary of the county council。
