From downtown Beijing all the way to the southeast, to the National Modern Agricultural Industrial Park in Tongzhou District, strings of thriving tomatoes hang on the vine branches in rows.
In the past, the lack of talent and technology restricted the development of rural areas, and the planting varieties in villages were single. In recent years, with the implementation of the "Science and Technology Courtyard" of the National Modern Agricultural Industrial Park in Tongzhou District, the "seeds of science and technology" have taken root and sprouted in the countryside, and the introduction of new varieties and technologies has not only satisfied the "mouth blessing" of the citizens of the capital, but also comprehensively driven the surrounding villagers to increase their income and become rich.
Teachers, students and researchers from China Agricultural University and Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences carried out scientific farming in the experimental fields of the park, and introduced advanced technologies such as innovative crop varieties and water and fertilizer integration. "Last year, we tried to grow ice cream radish, which is a sweet and watery fruit radish, which is more suitable for raw consumption, and the response has been very good. Therefore, this year, the planting scale has been expanded, and Zixiu green radish has been planted on a trial basis, which is estimated to be sold until before the Spring Festival. The person in charge of the science and technology courtyard said.
With the continuous exploration and updating of planting schemes, the planting varieties in the park have become more and more diverse. In addition to tomatoes, radishes, and fresh corn, there are also cabbage, lettuce, ice cream, sweet potatoes, and black-skinned peanuts. The staff of the small courtyard said, "We will adjust the planting plan at any time according to the market response, and what is planted and sold well will be kept, and then try new varieties."
After several years of intensive cultivation, the industrial park through scientific and technological means "green gold", so that the past almost abandoned land into fertile soil, all kinds of agricultural products here are deeply loved by Beijing citizens, through online micro-stores, retail and other sales methods, attracting the purchase of people all over the country, driving the sub-center of the agricultural industry out of a characteristic road of scientific and technological innovation.
