The beef cattle industry is a powerful starting point for Pu'er City to build a world-class "green food brand" and consolidate and expand the results of poverty alleviation and rural revitalization. Since 2021, Liushun Town, Simao District, has seized the development opportunity, followed the trend, firmly grasped the "cow nose" of industrial development, vigorously developed the beef cattle breeding industry, and relied on the "cattle industry" to make the "cattle road" a "powerful engine" for the masses to increase income and get rich.
Walking into the guanfang village under the passing farm in Liushun Town, I saw a beef cow fat and strong, and the wife of Zhu Wenxing, a big cattle farmer, was busy cleaning the barn and adding grass and feeding.
Zhu Wenxing, a major cattle farmer, said that his farm has built 2 cattle barns, planted more than 70 acres of forage, and has more than 100 local cattle, Simmental and other 2 varieties.
Now Zhu Wenxing, beef cattle breeding technology has been very mature. But five years ago, he didn't know anything about the beef cattle industry, and his family's income depended on corn cultivation and tea picking. "I began to breed local cattle in 2017, the traditional stocking method, insufficient forage reserves, breeding and disease prevention and control technology is not in place and other problems led to breeding efficiency is not high, in 2021 under the guidance of party committees and governments at all levels and policy support, the introduction of Simmental excellent hybrid cattle, and actively change the breeding method, the scale of breeding expanded to nearly 100 heads, during the sale of more than 20 beef cattle income of nearly 240,000 yuan."
Zhu Wenxing calculated a cattle economic account: "Raising cattle for 5 years, from the beginning of raising 40 heads, the development to now more than 100 heads, is expected to be 6 heads this year, the profit is about 50,000, cow manure to do compost sold is another income." Now that the market is stable, the sales channels are not worrying, and there is even a situation that there is not enough to sell, I also plan to expand the scale and introduce a batch of Simmental beef cattle for breeding."
Zhu Wenxing has become more and more confident in the development of the beef cattle industry, he said happily: "The next step will continue to learn scientific breeding techniques such as good seed selection, feed ratio, breeding governance, breeding breeding and disease prevention, etc., improve the production level and breeding efficiency, let the cattle also live a well-off life, and let us 'beg' a well-off together."
Liu Pingrong, the first secretary of Guanfang Village, said: "The development of our breeding industry in Guanfang Village is still good, just take the beef cattle industry, the existing beef cattle breeding 33 households, breeding beef cattle 559 heads, many farmers are on the basis of the development of planting industry and then develop the breeding industry, get double income." Next, we will fully strive for funds such as rural revitalization, continue to guide willing farmers and poverty alleviation households to vigorously develop the beef cattle breeding industry, and gradually form a stable and sustainable industrial chain to provide strong support for industrial revitalization."
"Since the establishment of the beef cattle industry special class, the beef cattle industry in Liushun Town has made a breakthrough from 'quantitative change' to 'qualitative change'. First of all, the breeding atmosphere is prominent, the farmer's consciousness from 'do not want to raise' to 'I want to raise' the transformation, from more than 60 households in early 2021 more than 2,000 heads to more than 140 households at the end of the year more than 4300 heads of the improvement; secondly, to achieve breed freedom, beef cattle breeding from the traditional local cattle to the direction of breed improvement, Yunling, Simmental and other high-quality varieties slowly approached our vision. Luo Zhengfen, a staff member of the beef cattle industry special class in Liushun Town, said.
In 2021, Liushun Town closely focused on the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy industry prosperity goal, the bigger and stronger breeding industry as an important starting point for farmers to increase income, issued 6.1 million yuan of "beef cattle loan", effectively activated the enthusiasm of farmers to breed beef cattle, and achieved 4359 beef cattle inventory and 2297 heads in the whole year, with an output value of 18 million yuan.
In the next step, Liushun Town will continue to make a fuss based on the beef cattle industry through the development idea of "government guidance and farmers' voluntariness", through the introduction of enterprises and the development of cooperative operations, with the breeding mode of "government + enterprise + cooperative + farmer", give full play to the role of the "double tie" and "double belt" mechanism, and actively explore a new model of modern animal husbandry development of "combination of breeding and breeding, resource recycling and ecological development" based on the principle of "environmental protection, ecological priority, grass breeding and cattle raising, and scientific development", and accelerate the transformation of feeding methods. Promote the standardized breeding of beef cattle, realize the "green" and "rich" go hand in hand, and activate the revitalization of the countryside with "Niu Luzi" to truly increase the income of the masses and become rich.
