CCTV news: In the golden autumn of October, the orange fragrance is full of gardens. At the slippery kumquat planting base in Gumu Village, Luzhai County, Guangxi, the air is filled with the fresh aroma of kumquat.
Recently, the reporter came to the slippery kumquat planting base and saw that the color of the kumquat fruit is not the same as the usual common kumquat fruit, the fruits they picked are still green, and the fruits picked this season are mainly used to make preserved fruits and fruit tea to eat.
According to the person in charge of the base, Sun Hongli, the life of the slippery kumquat fruit tree is up to 25 years, and the purchase price is basically stable, although the kumquat fruit harvested in autumn is not as high as the sugar in winter, but the price is the same as that in winter, and the planting efficiency is higher.
Slippery kumquats not only make the growers' wallets bulge, but also drive the labor force of the surrounding villages to find employment at their doorstep.
As of 2020, the local government will lead the villagers to vigorously develop the characteristic breeding industry, effectively driving the villagers to increase their income and become rich. According to statistics, the per capita annual income of the village is more than 15,000 yuan.
