On the morning of September 17, Adili Alimu began to work in his pesto field. He bent down, grabbed the pesto with his hand, and with a little effort, a head of pesto pulled out...

Adili is a pesto grower in Jiangga Lesayi Village, Kulamulek Township, Jimo County, where pesto is famous. These days, it's the season for pesto harvesting. He wiped the sweat from his head and his face was filled with joy: "This year, my family's pesto is harvested again." ”

Located at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, Jiangga Lesayi Village is a remote mountain village mainly engaged in agriculture and animal husbandry. There has always been a tradition of garlic growing here, which can be limited by mountains, and for a long time, farmers and herders have mostly only planted some on the fields and ditches. In recent years, the Party Committee of Kulamulek Township has seen the market prospects of pesto, and through a series of measures such as accurate planning and demonstration leadership, Jiangga Lesayi Village has become a well-known "pesto village".

Speaking of pesto planting, Sdic Mai Mu Timin, former deputy director of the village committee of Jiangga Lesayi Village, was deeply touched. When the cultivation of pesto began to be promoted in 2017, farmers and herdsmen had doubts: Can this garlic be planted in a large area? Can the garlic grown be sold?

In order to drive everyone to plant pesto, Stik was the first to stand up and use the family's 5 acres of land to make a demonstration field for pesto planting. When it came to the autumn harvest, the ground was full of farmers and herdsmen who came to visit, weighed on the scale, and 500 kilograms of pesto per acre of land were planted.

Adili said: "That was when I was completely convinced. After that, he took the cattle and sheep out and expanded the area of pesto planting. This year, his family's 11 acres of land have all been planted with pesto, and it is expected to increase the income by 50,000 yuan.

Adili lived a good life by planting pesto, which is also a microcosm of the hard work and prosperity of 54 farmers and herdsmen in Jiangga Lesayi Village, and the small garlic lump has truly become the "golden lump" for their income.

Liu Changming, secretary of the Party Committee of Kulamulk Township, said: "Industrial revitalization is the top priority of rural revitalization, and pesto planting is our precise point of strength. At present, the planting area of pesto in the township is nearly 1,000 mu, and a group of farmers and herdsmen have become rich by planting pesto. In the next step, we will pay attention to market demand, take a stable path of the industrialization of pesto, let the pesto sell to a farther place, and bring more benefits to farmers and herdsmen. ”
