In early winter, the seeds are fragrant. Recently, in Wangjiang County, Zhanghu Town, Liuhe Village, the sound of the machine rumbled, two sets of ship-borne harvesting equipment, shuttled back and forth on the vast water surface, the bow of each iron boat, are constantly spraying turbid water, this is the ship-borne harvesting equipment is busy sucking the fruit that has been sunk to the bottom.
In the past, the base relied on manual picking of the fruit, not only the cost is high, and the production efficiency is low, more than 10 workers can not harvest two acres of water surface of the fruit in a day, and a ship-borne harvesting equipment can harvest two acres of water surface of the fruit in one day. However, when harvesting the fruit with ship-borne harvesting equipment, it is necessary to wait until the floating fruit falls to the bottom of the water after it is fully ripe in October, and then it is suitable for use, and it is harvested by machine sucking. Chen Jialian, the person in charge of the planting and processing base of Liuhe Village, said.
It is not only edible, but also has medicinal value, and is known as "ginseng in water" and is favored by the market. It is understood that the harvest officially entered the picking period from late November to the end of January next year. Liuhe Village has an area of 1,300 acres, with an output of 600 catties per mu, 7 yuan per catty according to the market, with an estimated output value of about 5.46 million yuan, and absorbing 30 surrounding villagers for employment, with an annual per capita income of 20,000 yuan. At the same time, the Liuhe Village Seed Planting and Processing Base vigorously developed the three-dimensional economy of the recycling of the lobster, and put 160,000 catties of shrimp seedlings, 70,000 catties of lobsters were sold, bringing more than 1 million yuan in income, these two items. Every year, it brings 350,000 yuan of income to the collective economy of Liuhe Village.
In recent years, Liuhe Village has continued to build and improve various infrastructures, and continued to increase its efforts to attract investment. Chen Jialian, a planting expert of Tianze Aquaculture Cooperative in Tianchang City, Anhui Province, found that Liuhe Village has great potential for the development of modern agriculture through on-site visits, so in 2019, 1,300 acres of water surface in Liuhe Village were contracted with an annual water surface transfer fee of 780,000 yuan. At the same time, the "three changes" reform pilot funds will be invested in Chen Jialian's aquaculture professional cooperation to support the development of the cooperative industry.
In the next step, the Liuhe Village Seed Planting and Processing Base will invest 10 million yuan to further expand the industrial base, extend the industrial chain of deep processing of the seed, deepen the industry of the seed, and play the song of rural revitalization and prosperity. A new Liuhe with ecological beauty, industrial prosperity and people's prosperity will be presented in front of people. (Chapter with text).
