In recent years, the zhug county of zhongryuan has promoted the standardization, scaling up, modernization and branding of the vegetable industry through green development, technological innovation and industry-wide chain layout, writing responses to modern agriculture for green, new and future times。
Move towards green
The little croquette that swims in space: a green tree
On 5 june 2022, the shenzhou xiv manned spacecraft was successfully launched at the liquor spring satellite launch centre. The carefully cultivated beryllium seed seed from the serenium fairy research institute (iri) in the jigu county entered space on board a spaceship to launch a six-month space mutagenic breeding trip. On 4 december of the same year, the shenzhou xiv manned ship successfully landed in its cabin, and the herring seeds were successfully returned to earth。
This is the second time that the institute's beryllium seed has entered space and developed space mutagenic breeding. Among the types carried this time were “dude black” and a total of 120 grams (30,000). In 2016, the institute's beryllium seeds entered space for the first time on board the “practice ten” satellite, operating in orbit for 12 days and participating in 19 space science experiments as a payload。
“the production of `space cabbage' increased significantly compared to conventional varieties, producing over 5,000 kilograms per acre.” the director of the institute, liu sun-de, described the potential for beneficial variation in the agronomic character, quality and resilience of herring seeds in special environments such as powerful cosmic rays, microgravity and high vacuums in space. Upon return to the ground, new varieties that were eventually cultivated by scientists, through multiple rounds of screening, breeding and testing, had the advantage of growing fast, wide and fertile leaves and green colours, as well as the characteristics of wild fragrance, small rough fibres and excellent taste, and had great market prospects。
Today, the institute has become the only scientific base in the country devoted to the marketing of “space cabbage” breeding, hybrid breeding and breeding. It has 206 varieties of cauliflower, with a seed breeding base of 1. 08 million acres, which is a global resource for larger and more diverse herring. The institute has established eight breeding bases throughout the country, selling 130,000 kilograms of seedlings (saplings) annually, representing 75 per cent of the national market, generating social benefits of nearly $3 billion and exporting them to countries such as korea, russia and australia。
Paddy spinach: red root rolls out of the country
On the eve of the spring festival, the pipeline network in jiagu county was blown up and hailed by friends as the "eymas in spinach". The orders came from guangxi, hebei, hunan and became a “new pet” on many family tables. The spinach is characterized by adhesive growth, full of fat leaves and red roots. After the frosting, it is soft, sweet and tasteless, and henan is known as “the smell of childhood”。
The estuary is located in the lower plains of the yellow plain, where alluvial soil is fertilized and rich in a variety of minerals, providing favourable natural conditions for spinach growth. After winter, repeated frosts contributed to the accumulation of spinach sugar, creating a unique flavor of “smelting spinach sweets”。
The new farmer, henan qi xiao qi, quickly promoted the “turning out of the circle” through short video and live broadcasts that vividly showcased the character of spinach in the gutter “red root, paste, thick leaves, sweetness” in real and plain language. During her peak hours, she sold more than 5,000 units on a single live show for two hours, with sales exceeding 10,000 kilograms, leading to an increase of more than $1,000 in the related grower acres。
♪ ♪ west blue flowers ♪
In november 2023, the china vegetables industry congress released a map of the west blue flower industry, which has become one of the country's 17 counties (cities and districts) with an area of over 30,000 acres of western blue flower cultivation, and is the only high roll county in henan province. Lulong village is one of the main production areas of the western blue flowers in jigu county。
Locally grown western blue flowers are self-ploughed green sphere varieties that combine resources, stimulate individual vitality and achieve risk-sharing and benefit-sharing through the “large cluster + small farmers” model。
At present, the western blue flowers, which cover over 80,000 acres of complex seedlings, agro-machine services, logistics transport, catering, drone protection, etc., are effectively driving industrial chain, supply chain, and deep value chain integration. High-impact seeding models such as wheat + blue flower, corn + blue flower, wheat + blue flower + watermelon have not only ensured the stability of summer and autumn food seeding areas and yields, but have also significantly enhanced the benefits of niche industries。
“spatial cabbage”, pineapple and broccoli are excellent representatives of the groceries of the gutter. In addition, the roots of the land, such as mustards, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers and celery, are not only laying green fields where the birth machine is ingrained, but also generating a new and diversified agricultural industry that is well known to the nation。
To the new, modern agriculture is full of wisdom
Co-author of a new paper at the campus
In 2009, henan university of agriculture joined up with jiu gou county to establish an integrated base for scientific research, testing, demonstration, extension, internships, training, and demonstration of one-size-fits-all - henan university of agriculture's research institute for vegetables in guu。
Enter the institute's modern nursery centre, a green film in the smart greenhouses, and a variety of vegetables are flourishing, and the workers are engaged in orderly planting and management. “the nursery centres can be used for two months, covering more than 30 species of fruit and vegetables, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers with peppers, eggplants, western blue flowers and watermelons, with an annual supply of 50 million plants.” the head of the institute, mahjong, introduced the centre, which was equipped with tidal seedbeds, auto-jet vehicles, high-pressure fog spray systems and water fertilizer integration equipment. The overall technology is at the industry's advanced level, allowing for anniversaryization, intensification, standardization and intelligent seed production。
The institute is known to cover 550 acres, with a total investment of $30 million, with an intelligent and seventh generation nursery of 50,000 square metres and a capacity of 50 million; it has been evaluated as a demonstration base for pro-poor industries in zhoukou city, a leading agribusiness and a model area for agricultural standardization in henan province。
Over the past 10 years, the institute has produced and introduced over 1,000 new varieties of melons, peppers, tomatoes, eggplants, kale and carrots. Among them, the famous varieties of the rainbow watermelon “frozen sweetmeat” “precipitating glycerine” “fruit-rich” “black-e188 spinach” and high-yielding peppers produced on a single basis in excess of 10,000 kilograms have been spread throughout the country, with cumulative social benefits exceeding $1 billion。
In addition, the model developed by the institute for innovative soilless cultivation, semi-terrestrial cultivation and the production of seedlings in integrated hydrofertilizer plants has been widely applied throughout the province and throughout the country。
Lead to modern facilities agriculture re-innovation
Henan canon wisdom agricultural development co. Ltd. Serves as the lead base for agricultural innovation in modern facilities throughout the country, demonstrating the dynamism of development through “new sheds, new equipment, new varieties, new models”。
The technology used for the construction of greenhouses in the sea-composed module has the advantages of weather resistance, snow and ice resistance, high temperature retention, over 85 per cent land use and low maintenance costs. At present, 43 sea-capable module greenhouses with a total surface area of 58,000 square metres have been constructed and are bearing fruit。
It has 143,000 square metres of smart greenhouses, 13 large, small and medium-sized vegetable farming machines, 7 gps precision operating machines, and 30 smart spray systems, 36 fully integrated hydrofertilizers, with 30 million annual nursery capacity and the highest level of intelligence in the province。
The introduction of more than 20 national and international brands of outstanding new vegetables, with a quality improvement rate of over 90 per cent, has achieved scientific matching and efficient output。
New poles in modern agricultural industry chains
The science and technology development corporation, inc., is a modern agribusiness with a large number of limited resources, sino-tshin group, aerospace industries group and others. It covers 1,800 acres and plans to build 1 million square metres of fully intelligent greenhouses, 20,000 square metres of cold-chain storage assembly centres, 10,000 square metres of digital parties building demonstration centres for modern agricultural science and technology, 5,000 square metres of biological organic fertilizer engineering centres and 15,000 square metres of research and production research bases. The development of a “digital agricultural brain”, an ai-intellectual decision-making system for the operation of integrated parks, production management, early warning of pests and pests, and yield forecasting, as well as a data traceability system covering the entire industrial chain, leading to full-chain digital control from seeds to tables。
The environment-wide smart membrane greenhouses implement a complete visualization control through an integrated system for the environmental management of water fertilizers and a digital twin platform. Using space breeding techniques, 1 million seedlings are grown annually. The cold-chain storage assembly centres use full automatic sorting lines and intelligent cold chains. The biocobacterial fertilizer engineering centre, capable of treating 250,000 tons of straw annually for recycling。
In the future, the company will aim to build a centre for agricultural science, technology and innovation in facilities and modern agro-industrial parks at the national level, working to create new poles for a modern agro-industry chain。
Whether it be the co-founded scientific platform of the school or the intellectual agricultural base led by the leading firms, the vegetable industry in the estuary is using science, technology and innovation as its engine for the deep integration of new equipment, materials, varieties and technologies. The shed is no longer just a production unit but a new scene for the integration of the agro-linguistic brigade; farmers are gradually transforming into “agriculture workers” with modern skills; and traditional vegetables are moving towards modern horticulture that combines science and technology, ecology and aesthetics. A live survey of chinese-style agricultural rural modernization is being written in hard copy。
It's a new chapter
During the “fifty five” period, jigsaw county, which was instrumental in building regional public brands of “fifty vegetables” and in creating modern agricultural estates at the national level, advanced its seven major initiatives, namely, brand creation, development of new products, scale cultivation, green production, cold-chain logistics, marketing promotion and promotion, and promotion of excellence in the vegetable industry. By 2030, the total area of vegetable seeding in the county will be 600,000 acres, of which 250,000 acres of vegetables will be available, 350,000 acres of open-land vegetables will be produced, exceeding 4 million tons annually, and efforts will be made to build the province's leading and influential green eco-vegetative capital。
At present, 520,000 acres (180,000 acres) of vegetables (including plant vegetables) are sowed every year, with 12. 36 million workers, 2. 7 million tons of vegetables produced annually and 4. 68 billion yuan annually. The vegetable industry has become the dominant industry in the rich and powerful counties, which has strongly supported the revival of rural industries。
At a new starting point, jigsaw districts will sustain high-quality development, focus on efficiency gains, strengthen science and technology empowerment and brand leadership, and inject dynamic energy into the overall drive for rural revitalization.
