In the golden autumn season, the pear town is the same as the river, and the crisp pear is fragrant. The high-quality crispy pears in Dongshandi Village, Tongchuan Town, Yuanping City, are hung with branches. At the foot of Longjian Mountain, the pear orchards are full of pear farmers' busy figures and cheerful laughter, and large trucks are waiting in front of the village stage square, ready to send crisp pears to Hebei, Hubei and other places.
Villagers Li Weiting and Guo Pingxiang are a pair of shrewd and skilled pear farmers, their sons and daughters are working outside, and in addition to taking care of their own 10 acres of pear orchards, the farmers also have to help spray and cut trees for other pear farmers in their spare time. Li Weiting told this writer that this year's crisp pears planted by his family were harvested. He said: "Happiness is a struggle!" Crispy pears just sold to 1 yuan per kilogram of trees, but also particularly sought-after, this year only this one net income of more than 20,000 yuan, which in the past is unimaginable. "Listening to Li Weiting talk about today's production and living conditions, the author is sincerely happy for pear farmers." Because our village is located at the commanding heights of Tongchuan Town, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, the sugar content of the crispy pears produced is as high as 16.8%, and it also has the characteristics of thin skin, sweet juice, large water, and crispness. Hao Yuetian, who came to help pick pears, said happily while busy under the tree. Wang Sujun, a pear merchant from Shenzhou City, Hebei Province, said: "I have been selling pears in Dongshandi Village for six or seven years, and customers have reported that Tongchuan's pears have high sugar content and good quality. Especially in February 2020, when the epidemic broke out in Wuhan, Hubei Province, Tongchuan Town sent charcoal in the snow and donated high-quality crispy pears again and again to fight the epidemic, which was praised by all sectors of society in Wuhan. Since then, Tongchuan crispy pears have become more popular in Wuhan, Hubei Province, and have become a hot brand, and I recently purchased more than 200,000 catties. ”
In order to make the crisp pear industry, commonly known as the former Pingdongshan cash cow, further become a pillar industry for rural revitalization, Fan Tielong, who returned to Dongshandi Village to start a business as the secretary of the party branch, said: The next step is to send two experienced pear farmers to go out to investigate and study, and further master the technologies of rational pruning and pest control to help pear farmers solve difficult problems. At the same time, with the characteristics of Tongchuan's geography and climate, we actively encourage and guide farmers to grasp science and technology to adjust production, further improve the quality of crisp pears, promote industrial efficiency, increase farmers' income, and lead villagers to live a happy and happy life.
It is reported that this year, Dongshandi Village planted a total of more than 800 acres of crisp pears, the output can reach more than 700,000 catties, according to the market price of 1 yuan per kilogram, the annual income is expected to exceed 500,000 yuan.
Another harvest year, another harvest time. The pear trees that spread over the mountains are not only the "rich trees" of the majority of pear farmers, but also the "happiness trees" that create a better life. Fan Tielong said with confidence: "In the future, we will continue to introduce new varieties, build high-standard demonstration gardens, in the adjustment of the agricultural industrial structure, according to local conditions, vigorously develop the characteristic pear and fruit industry, drive the development of the whole village pear industry to a higher level, higher quality, and brand, and constantly meet the new expectations of the masses for a better life, so that the villagers' lives will be more prosperous."
