Hainan ** reporter Deng Yu correspondent Huang Wentao Xing Yuanyuan.
On February 22, in Donglu Town, Wenchang City, Hainan Agricultural Reclamation Standardized "Concubine Smile" Lychee Planting Base, finely broken lychee flower spikes spread all over the treetops, and they formed clusters of light yellow "clouds".
It's a great sight to behold. It turned out that last winter was a warm winter, the temperature was higher than usual, and the south wind often blew, and it was not easy for lychees to bloom.
Under the climatic conditions of last winter, it was indeed not easy for lychees to bloom on such a large scale. Lin Yong, manager of the fruit and vegetable branch of Hainan Nongken East Road Farm Company, looked at the flowers in the lychee field, and finally let go of the "big stone in his heart".
In order to allow the lychee to bloom smoothly and set fruits, the staff of the fruit and vegetable branch led the workers to thin the flowers and insects of the lychee trees in the garden, grasp the agricultural time, seek a good yield, and continue to do a good job in field management.

Spraying, fertilization, flower thinning, ear control ......The work is one job after another. Lin Yong said that the most important thing at present is to do a good job in flower control and flower thinning, pest control and water and fertilizer management, which will help fruit set and improve fruit quality. With the efforts of the professional team, the flowering rate of the four lychee bases of Donglu Farm Company this year has reached more than 90%.
In general, the flower spikes with early extraction and too long flower spikes are of poor flower quality, the proportion of female flowers is small, and the fruit setting rate is low, so it is necessary to reasonably adjust and control the amount of flowers to improve the fruit setting rate.
Not far away, in Sanmenpo Town, Qiongshan District, Haikou City, the 350 acres of lychee base of Lihai Shared Farm of Hainan Agricultural Reclamation Hongming Farm Company, workers are shuttling through the base to carry out flower thinning and fruit preservation operations, and make every effort to seize the "agricultural time" and lay the foundation for the harvest of lychees.
It is difficult for lychees to bloom this year, but the flowering rate of lychees in Lihai Shared Farm this year is 90%. Chen Guowen, general manager of Lihai Shared Farm, said that Lihai Shared Farm has cultivated a professional agricultural technical team to tackle the key core issues affecting the growth of lychee and escort the abundant and stable yield of lychee. This time, the team predicted the weather in time and did a good job in management, if there is no bad weather in the later stage, this year's lychee harvest is in sight.

Lychee flowers bloom on the branches, and also bloom in the hearts of farmers.
The more lush the flowers, the more profitable we are! "The good flowering rate has made He Chunxiang, a farmer living in Donglu, who came to work here, more motivated. "The higher the flowering rate, the better the management compensation! He Chunxiang had a bright smile on her face.
It turned out that the East Road Farm Company changed the traditional way of daily remuneration and paid according to the number of plants to mobilize the enthusiasm of workers.
Although this kind of remuneration method has raised the threshold for workers, those who remain are technical experts who are not afraid of hard work and are willing to work. Lin Yong calculated the account for the reporter, and now an average of 50 workers are needed every day, and the labor cost is 50,000 yuan per day, but the remuneration by plant is only 390,000 yuan, which truly achieved cost reduction and efficiency increase in management.
Spring is bright, lychees are blooming full of branches, and people are already planning for a good harvest. This year, Hainan Agricultural Reclamation Hongming Farm Co., Ltd. continued to deepen the effectiveness of science and technology, relying on the scientific research office, and cooperating with the Institute of Tropical Fruit Trees of the Hainan Academy of Agricultural Sciences to form an expert team to conduct detailed research on new planting models, new varieties optimization, and new management and control systems, so as to seek a greater harvest for lychees.
