At present, it is the season for green peas to pick and market, and the 40,000 acres of green peas planted in Puyi Town, Longyang District, ushered in the peak season of harvesting.
Facing the warm sun of early spring, walking into the villages of Qimu Forest, Datian, Walnut, Shuanghe and other villages in Puyi Town, as far as the eye can see, the neat rows of "green fences" in the fields come into view, and the branches are full of strings of fresh and green green peas. The soybean farmers who are busy in all aspects of picking, bagging, handling, and loading are all full of happy smiles on their faces.
From the beginning of January to the end of March every year, there is an endless stream of merchants who go to the fields of Puyi Town to buy green peas, and these green peas are mainly sent to Zhejiang, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangsu, Guangdong and other places.
This year's pea varieties are good, the growth is good, and the bean bags are large. My family planted 2 acres, and now I have picked more than 1,200 catties, with a ** of 6-7 yuan per kilogram and an income of 1About 40,000 yuan. Zhang Liuhui, a bean farmer in Hejiazhai in Shuanghe Village, Puyi Town, said happily while busy picking peas.
In recent years, Puyi Town has seized the favorable opportunity of "southern vegetables to the north", made full use of land resources and climate advantages, actively explored the model of "party organization + cooperative + farmer", and led the cooperative through the party organization to drive the development of the "two green" vegetable industry in 21 villages, and successively completed 1,000 acres of vegetable demonstration model and 5,000 acres of green prevention and control model of fresh peas.
The small green peas not only enrich the "vegetable basket" of consumers, but also puff up the "money bags" of the masses.
