Volunteerism plays an indispensable and important role in rural renewal. In recent days, the academy of agricultural sciences of xichang college has responded positively to calls for voluntary activities to promote tomato cultivation techniques. The aim of the event was to use scientific and technological power to raise the level of tomato cultivation, promote farmers ' incomes and revitalize rural development。
I. Background of activities: insights into needs, precision support
There are natural conditions suitable for tomato cultivation in the cold mountains, but the development of the local tomato industry has long faced difficulties. Poor cultivation techniques have resulted in low production and unstable quality of tomatoes; low levels of industrialization and poor distribution links have seriously affected farmers ' earnings; and weak public safety concepts, food security risks, low brand influence and difficulties in market expansion. These problems constrain the development of the local tomato industry and are an obstacle to farmers ' enrichment。
The faculty of agricultural sciences of zichang college is keenly aware of these problems and has formed professional volunteer teams in the hope of helping farmers to cope with practical difficulties and promote the development of the local tomato industry by promoting advanced tomato cultivation techniques。
Ii. Content of activities: multidimensional initiatives, overall upgrading
Building seedling centres and building the foundations for industrial development: joint college laboratories to develop high-quality tomatoes adapted to the local climate and to provide seedlings to farmers. These seedlings are highly disease-resistant and yield-intensive, guaranteeing the quality and production of tomatoes from the source. At the same time, the team provides farmers with technical guidance on seedlings to help them acquire scientific nursery methods and to reduce the cost of breeding。
Technical training and field mentoring to upgrade farming skills: training covers key technologies such as smart equipment operations, pest control and water-saving irrigation, which effectively enhance farming skills of farmers. In addition, team members are regularly stationed in priority cooperatives, where they conduct hands-on mentoring to address in a timely manner the technical difficulties faced by farmers during planting and to ensure that advanced technologies are truly applied。
Outcomes of activities: significant results, multi-win
Technological innovations have yielded significant results: team innovations in nursery-breeding techniques, the adoption of plant-based planting models for graze-breeding and lacquer-based seedlings, and the improvement of the quality of the seedlings; the recycling of straw by the facility's tradation and fermentation techniques to improve soil fertility; and greening and control techniques to reduce weed and pest incidence and improve the quality of tomatoes。
The service spirit of students at the xichang academy of agricultural sciences has been amply demonstrated by this voluntary campaign to promote tomato cultivation techniques. With their expertise and practical action, they send hope and help to farmers to light up every inch of rural land in the light of technology。
For the benefit of the population, farmers actually feel the benefits of technology. Increased production and income not only improved their living conditions, but also increased their confidence in industrial development. At the same time, the activities have created a local pool of skilled people with advanced farming techniques and have laid a solid foundation for the sustainable development of rural industries。
In the future, the academy of agricultural sciences of xichang will continue to carry out more meaningful voluntary activities for the purpose of serving society. To constantly explore innovation and contribute more wisdom and strength to rural renewal, so that more people benefit from the combination of science and technology and volunteerism。
