The lee shinseng team has been successful in planting dates in the yellow river beach area and has continued to learn from experience in development and to find breakthroughs in scientific and technological innovation. Today, the province of shaanxi, which has 420,000 acres and a total production of 500,000 tons, has exceeded 6 billion yuan annually, representing more than one third of the country's market share。
In the case of the large winter dates of shaanxi, the skins, sweet and sweet, which contain 19 human essential amino acids, vitamin c contains 70 times the amount of apples, and pear 140 times the value of nutrition is considered “the crown of the fruit”. Today, the value of winter-tree production in dahai county, shaanxi province, exceeds 6 billion yuan per year, the value of industrial chain production exceeds 10 billion yuan, the value of chinese fruit brands is 4,868 million yuan, and there are 11 billion villages throughout the county。
Behind this string of figures is professor li xinang, specialist in science and technology, northwestern university of agroforestry and forestry technology, and director of the national forest and grass office technical research centre for engineering。
I'll teach you how to be an expert
Rainfall was once the largest contributor to the loss of fissures during the maturation of dates. In order to avoid losses, before the rainy season, they were picked and marketed without long dates, but such dates did not feel well, and consumers “don't pay”, making the sale of large dates difficult。
When researched by li xinng, a long-standing researcher on the techniques of the red palm industry, saw the situation, he immediately began to solve the problem. At that time, however, the farmers could turn the tide by not believing in a training exercise and several university teachers。
In 2006, li's team led a country-wide breakthrough in cold shed date-planting techniques, demonstrating that the field had a value of 20,000 acres, which not only improved the quality of the date, but also gained market recognition. The technology received a first prize in science and technology from shaanxi province in 2011, when over 10,000 acres were planted and their value was approximately $20,000。
“now, the fruit farmers who grow the dates of the winter are happy to hear from our team of experts!” lee shinseng is pleased to say. Now that the farmers are no longer blindly growing their dates, every farmer has a “clear book” in his heart, together with technologists and experts who are hand-in-hand, technical and technical, and the so-called “expert”。
As a farmer with full confidence in his annual income, zhao jianming, secretary of the pingro party party, is pleased to tell the daily reporter of science and technology: “we are not worried about the quality of fruit, we are not worried about the quality of the fruit, we are not worried about the sale, we are just starting the garden every year, and the customers are waiting to sign and sell the good things.”
Technological innovation to make taipei the first county of winter dates
Cultivation technologies are changing as science and technology develop. In 2013, the research by lee shingan led to a further breakthrough in winter-tree production technology, accompanied by continuous upgrading of the four shed structures and their accompanying technologies, such as the hot shed, the cotton shed, the double membranes and the general cold shed, in accordance with the different landscapes and realities of the population, and extended the maturity of the date supply period from 40 days to 5 months。
In the years immediately following the commencement of the winter-tree experiment at the facility, li and his team used sweat and technology to mobilize the fruit farmers. An investment of $90,000 in a standard greenhouse of 1. 5 acres is significant and cost-effective, but also risky. In order to break down the greenhouse culture technology, in winter, january, and outside the cold and snowy terrain, more than 30 degrees celsius in the greenhouses, the experts successfully managed to break through the natural cooling and hibernation of the greenhouse cultivation technology in 2013 by measuring the edges with experimental instruments. The hotbed dates, which are also the earliest to mature, are expensive and marketable and produce over $50,000 in acre. The risks of hot shed date planting have been eliminated and technology has been widely disseminated and disseminated。
Based on the rich and long-standing culture of dates and saline-resistant characteristics, the li shingan team has managed to plant dates in the yellow river beach area and has continued to learn from experience in development and to find breakthroughs in scientific and technological innovation. Today, the province of taipei has 420,000 acres of date-palm cultivation, with a total production of 500,000 tons and an annual output of more than $6 billion, representing more than one third of the country's market share。
Over the past two years, taipei county has established more than 300 businesses and cooperatives related to winter dates, with more than 1,000 distribution networks spread throughout the country, with direct camp windows located in 40 large and medium-sized cities in the north and far north, for over 10 overseas markets such as russia, canada and europe and america. Despite the effects of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic in 2020 and 2021, the sale of date palms continues to burn, with the average annual electricity dealer trading at nearly $3 billion。
To mention the contribution of li's shingan team to the industry, the secretary of the state commission of taipei county was inspired by the creation of a new concept: “the big dates are `hard-tech' dates. The team members led by li seng-sang gave more scientific elements to the upgrading of the sheds in the winter-tree facility, light-temperature control, green control, soil health, etc. The sheds in the winter-tree facility were developed from the original sheds to new types of sheds such as the present solar greenhouses, steel-mounted cotton sheds, etc., which have developed a unique model of raising large winter-tree facilities throughout the country.”
Strategic planning, hard technology underpinning quality development
In li's view, as a science and technology commission, in addition to teaching local agricultural extension staff skills, it is more important to provide government with advice on industrial development。
“the date-palm industry cannot develop in an disorderly fashion, and the development of date-planting must be strategic, targeted and of high quality”. In may 2021, li xinjun said, at the chinese congress on the development of high quality in the great palm industry. Over the years, he has been involved with the taipei government in the development of national and local standards, such as the “oucture date standards”, the establishment of a system of agricultural quality safety traceability, the monitoring and analysis of industry-wide data, and the implementation of smart monitoring, standardized crop management and product traceability for date cultivation。
It is thanks to the institutional and hard-tech support of these norms that the date palms of the plumes are no longer seen only in winter and are listed every year from may to november. The extremely long shelf and wrong marketing periods ensured that the market prices for large dates were strong and unsupplied, and that high-quality dates for dubai were exported at a sale price of $6 each, up to $20 each。
The sunshine house acre is earning $80,000. During the harvest season from may to october, they entered the sheds and looked away, bearing fruit and bending the branches. It is surprising, however, that there are few red dates in the shed, and the farmers explain: “we usually finish the day picks at 6 or 8 a. M., we finish the trade and sort them out at 10 a. M., then we load them in the afternoon to the national market, and we get to the consumers the next day, fresh on the market and guarantee the quality of the dates. Naturally, the shed lacks ripe red dates."
The secretary of the party's branch, xue, of the town of anjin, said with security: “standing on the slopes east, a million acres of winter-tree sheds are laid to the sky and a truck of winter-trees is coming from here to the country. No one knows, however, that the small hill village known as the "first village of winter dates" and the "billion dollar village of winter dates" was an inferno 20 years ago, "the canals, the slopes are broken and the roads are flat, the year they are confiscated and the money is paid for short work. 'it was true and bitter. It was thanks to the guidance given to the farmers by professor lee and his team of specialists, the technologist, that the days of the people changed dramatically.”
The date is now the “happy fruit” of the giant date farmer. Previously, most of the village's labour had been for the elderly, and in recent years the age structure of the farmers had changed considerably, with a growing number of young people aged 30 to 50 years in the village, some of whom had become professional skilled workers, and in addition to managing their home's date gardens, they had been able to export technology in other gardens, earning tens of thousands more a year。
“as a technologist, a red-tree expert, i will continue to contribute `technologies', to play the role of technologists, and to strive to become a trusted expert for the people.” lee xinxiang's eyes are clear and confident。
