As a miraculous herb in the hometown of the medical saint, it has a miraculous health preservation effect from the tender buds to the mature leaves. Zaoyuan Town, one of the first batch of characteristic townships of Chinese medicinal materials in Nanyang City, relies on the abundant advantages of wormwood resources to promote the integrated development of the three industries, so that the aroma of wormwood permeates the road of rural revitalization.
Wormwood is vigorous and can be harvested three times a year, and the harvest period is May, July and October every year. In winter, 10,000 acres of wormwood in Zaoyuan Town, Zhenping County have entered the "dormant period", and on the seemingly "desolate" field, a bunch of wormwood is "accumulating strength" in the warm soil, waiting for the winter to spring to "sprint" the harvest of the new year.
As the "star" of traditional Chinese medicine, wormwood is a health herb with a long history. Yang Jichang, an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor in Jiang Liuwa Village, Zaoyuan Town: "Wormwood is full of treasures, and it is often used in medical treatment, such as bathing children to dispel itching and inflammation, soaking feet, sticking moxa stickers, moxibustion, etc., which can be soreness and softness of the waist and knees, and have the effects of dispelling dampness, reducing inflammation and relieving pain, removing wind and activating blood. In the past, I used to rub moxa sticks by hand, and the finished product was very slow, but now I use machine processing to make it, which is fast and good. ”
Walking into Zaoyuan Town Ai Mingyuan Agricultural Science and Technology *** Ai products processing workshop, the rich fragrance of mugwort came to the face, the workers are constantly changing the "grass" into "treasure", put the selected moxa wool into the machine tool card slot, with the machine pushing, one by one moxa strips were produced, carefully packaged and sent to all parts of the country.
Li Fengyi, head of Nanyang Ai Mingyuan Agricultural Science and Technology Enterprise Office: "This factory employs more than 200 people a year, including 14 employees from poor households, driving 80 poor households out of poverty. The monthly salary of migrant workers is about 3,000 yuan, and the annual income is more than 30,000 yuan. ”
Ai "fight to win." Relying on the traditional wormwood planting, Zaoyuan Town has a scientific layout, actively operates, and implements "nanny-style" services for each wormwood enterprise. In the industrial chain, a complete industrial chain integrating Nanyang mugwort planting, product processing, new product research and development, and online and offline sales has been initially formed. The main products are more than 300 varieties of more than 70 categories, such as moxa, moxa, moxibustion, washing, home decoration and health care, with an annual output value of nearly 100 million yuan, driving the common development of more than 5,000 rural households, more than 800 poor households getting rid of poverty accurately, and achieving employment of more than 3,000 people, becoming the "income increase base" and "rich factory" at the door of the village collective and the masses.
As an important base for wormwood planting in Zaoyuan Town, Jiangliuwa Village has increased its collective economy by more than 10 yuan per year through land transfer, shareholding dividends, production line leasing, etc., which is also a microcosm of the collective economic development and growth of Zaoyuan Town.
If the industry is prosperous, the countryside will be prosperous. Following the footsteps of the general secretary of Nanyang to inspect Nanyang in 2021 to "take the pulse" of traditional Chinese medicine, the thousand-year-old treasure has been renewed, the development of the wormwood industry in Zaoyuan Town is moving forward, and the cadres and the masses are full of hope to move towards a happy new life, and a picture of rural revitalization is slowly unfolding.
Liu Kebing, Secretary of the Party Committee of Zaoyuan Town: "In the next step, the Party Committee of Zaoyuan Town will continue to focus on the wormwood industry, improve management services, adhere to the bottom line of quality, increase marketing efforts, strengthen talent reserves, lengthen the industrial chain, further develop traditional Chinese medicine culture, promote industrial prosperity, promote farmers' income, and build strength for rural revitalization." ”
