Winter has arrived, and the “top fruit” — the rakes — that the sichuans are looking forward to is finally here. If it is a “love letter” written by sichuan people for the winter, it is being sent from an orchard in the village of tori village, surining city. On 27 november, journalists entered the garden of the professional cooperative in the boat mountains, where the unobserved white fruit bag flourished in the warm sun. Tearing up bags, the orange and yellow rakes are glamorous, adding a bright yellow to the winter countryside。
It's an eco-ware machine in an orchard
"we've all finished the sacks in the ravine, and we're at a critical stage of sugar accumulation." the chief of the professional cooperative, yao nieng, was in the middle of the fruit forest, gently unbringing a fruit bag and showing its full orange and yellow fruits。
The new recruit yao, who had chosen to grow the rake, saw the unique geo-climatic conditions of the mountain - - subtropical wet monsoon climate, with abundant annual precipitation, long frostless periods, soil rich in trace elements, and very suitable for rake。
Under the leadership of yao recruits, the cooperative formed a complete system of ecological cultivation. The orchard is based on the “breeding” model, which preserves naturally growing weeds between the branches of the fruit tree, preserving both soil and water and the ecological diversity of the orchards。
In the area of pest control, cooperatives insist on a combination of physical and biological control. The orchard is equipped with yellow sticky boards every few metres, and the tree is equipped with green booby traps to replace the pesticide and ensure the safety of the fruit。
One of the fruit's "driven test"
"taste our fruit this year." the village of huang guiying, who is busy in the orchard, warmly greets him. And she cut open a rake, and the skin was thin, and the fruit crystal was full. "our fruit has no core, no seeds, full of fruit, full of juice, like old children."
“we have a high demand for the rake,” said yao's recruits, “each weight must be between 180 and 250 grams, sugar must be more than 13 degrees, and the face of the fruit should be smooth, coloured orange red, skin-skinned, non-dirty”
It is the commitment to quality that has given the ship a good reputation for the market. A number of fruit distributors come to purchase on time every year. “our rakes are of stable quality and sweet taste and are particularly popular in chengdu and chongqing. A lot of customers rate "sweet, infertile, infertile scum." yao recruits say。
"sweet into the hearts of the villagers"
The fundamental purpose of industrial development is to boost farmers ' incomes. It is known that the cooperative, which specializes in co-planting, currently has 170 acres of land, of which 110 acres are grown in rake. Cooperatives use the “cooperative + base + farmer” business model, which effectively drives the development of nearby farmers。
"i'm in charge of the day-to-day management of fruit trees at the cooperative, not only with monthly wages, but also at the end of the year." the transfer of her family's land flow to the cooperative would result in an annual transfer fee of 4000 yuan, which, together with the income of working people, would increase by more than 30,000 yuan a year. There are not a few villagers like huang guiying who have grown through cooperatives. Currently, cooperatives employ more than 10 local villagers on a permanent basis, reaching more than 60 during their seasonal peak。
“we now have a good rise in the rake, which is expected to produce a total of 600,000 pounds, and we expect to produce more than 3 million yuan at the current market. Yao recruits have full confidence. Cooperatives sell through a combination of online and offline distributions and, in addition to traditional wholesales, use electric power platforms and community groups to buy fresh rakes directly to consumers。
Jinry isn't just "sweet fruit" but "pick."
Chen jinjin, a war advocate general in the town of inri, stated that in recent years his town has been optimizing its agricultural structure in line with the concept of “ecological agriculture, specialty industries”. In addition to the rakes, there is a strong effort to develop special fruits, such as monkeys and oranges, and to form an industrial development “one village, one product”。
“we make every effort to promote quality development in the fruit industry through policy support, technical guidance, branding, etc.” chen jinjin explained that the shipping mountain government has set up annual special funds to support the introduction of new varieties, technical training and market development, while actively organizing exhibitions to help farmers widen their channels and increase their visibility。
In parallel with the development of industry, the town has focused on the integration of agro-bourbons, regularly organizing pick-up festivals, quality fairs, etc., to attract tourists to enjoy the pleasures of picking and to stimulate rural tourism。
Looking at the wild trees, yao recruits look forward to the future: “next, we plan to build a cold-chain logistics system that will improve fruit conservation capacity while applying for green food certification, creating autonomous brands and leading ships to wider markets.”
