Dalan Village, Hengli Town, Huicheng District, is one of the main grapefruit producing areas in Huizhou, and as the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the grapefruit in Dalan Village has also matured and entered the picking period. In the past few days, the grapefruit garden has ushered in a wave of pickers, and more e-commerce has helped sales, and busy growers have a harvest smile on their faces.
"This year's grapefruit was able to be harvested smoothly thanks to the help of experts from the Huicheng District Agricultural Technology Center. There are also former village-based cadres who help us contact e-commerce to expand sales channels, and we are more at ease. Huang Jianliang, a grapefruit grower in Dalan Village, said happily.

Agricultural experts help guide fruit growers to reduce frost losses
Dalan Village is a point where the Huicheng District Agricultural Technology Center has carried out the joint construction of agricultural science demonstration villages by party members. A few days ago, the reporter followed the center's graduate science and technology service group to Dalan to understand the maturity of grapefruit. In the grapefruit garden of Huang Jianliang's family, I saw that one by one the grapefruit wrapped in paper bags was hung all over the branches, and when the bags were peeled off, Huang Chengcheng's large grapefruit was exposed, only for people to pick. Peel off a grapefruit to taste, the red heart grapefruit is sweet and slightly sour, very refreshing and refreshing.
Huang Jianliang has been planting grapefruit for 12 years, and has expanded the scale through contracted land, and there are currently 30 acres of grapefruit planted, which is a large-scale grower in the village. In recent years, grapefruit has become the fruit of enrichment for farmers in the Dalan area, and the "sweet industry" has developed momentum. During the bumper harvest last year, with the help of the first Dalan Grapefruit Festival in Hengli Town, the village's grapefruit sales were booming. However, the joy of the harvest had just passed, and a sudden frost at the end of December last year caught growers off guard. "At that time, we were in the bud differentiation period of the grapefruit tree, and many old leaves were also knocked off by frost, and the fruit hanging rate without leaves was very low, and we were very worried at that time." Huang Jianliang said.

After Learning about the situation, Zhang Meilan, then the "first secretary" of the District Taxation Bureau, contacted the experts of the District Agricultural Technology Center in time to guide and teach the growers to prune branches and leaves, manage water and fertilizer, and protect flowers and fruits. "After the frost, since January this year, agricultural experts have come every month, and twice when we bagged in May, to guide us how to bagging." Crouching under a pomelo tree full of branches, Huang Jianliang talked with agricultural experts about the recent growth of grapefruit, and his words were full of gratitude.
Yan Xuedong, a member of the Postgraduate Science and Technology Service Group of the District Agricultural Technology Center, introduced that this year, the center combined with the study and education of party history, and carried out a demonstration village of agricultural science with party members in Dalan Village, and increased the intensity of agricultural technology assistance to the village. Especially after the fruit farmers suffered frost, not only regular agricultural technical guidance, but also for the fruit farmers in Dalan Village free distribution of nearly 20,000 paper bags, the promotion of insect-proof and environmentally friendly green planting technology, not only help to improve production, but also for the fruit farmers to save a cost.
"Although the number of fruit hanging this year is reduced compared to last year due to the frost, the fruit shape is relatively large." Huang Jianliang told reporters that the output of his own grapefruit garden this year is expected to be 50,000 or 60,000 catties, and it will be picked at the end of August, and 5,000 catties will be sold in the first 10 days. Now has entered the peak of picking, there are constantly old acquaintances to pick, as well as the company to book the Mid-Autumn Festival grapefruit gift box, these days sold a few thousand pounds a day, this year's sales are not a problem.

The secretary in the village matchmaking contact e-commerce to expand sales channels
When it comes to the grapefruit of Dalan Village, the villagers will mention one person and praise it from the bottom of their hearts, that is, Zhang Meilan. Zhang Meilan was dispatched by the District Taxation Bureau to Dalan Village as the "First Secretary" in the village in May last year, during which she has been running for the development of the grapefruit industry in the Dalan area and the sales of agricultural products such as grapefruit, and assisted the establishment of the Meilan Ecological Agriculture Professional Cooperative in Dalan Village during the Grapefruit Festival last year, and actively contacted e-commerce to expand sales channels for fruit farmers. Nowadays, although Zhang Meilan is no longer a cadre stationed in the village, the district tax bureau's help and construction of Dalan Village has not stopped, and Zhang Meilan is also full of feelings for this village that has invested passion and sweat, coupled with the trust of the villagers, everyone is still accustomed to finding her help.
No, in order to help the sales of grapefruit this year, Zhang Meilan took the initiative to contact Jingdong Huizhou Agricultural Aid To carry out e-commerce sales. On the day of the reporter's interview, he just happened to encounter the company's operation and purchasing party coming to the grapefruit garden to negotiate with the fruit farmers on the spot to dock the grapefruit sales business.
Zhang Hanzhong, who is responsible for the operation and procurement of Jingdong Huizhou Agricultural Museum, introduced that the company has negotiated cooperation with some fruit farmers, and the platform has pre-sold 5,000 orders with a total of 20,000 or 30,000 jin, which have been shipped one after another, and there are more orders from the north, Shanghai and Guangzhou regions. "After the farmers pick them, they are transported to the cooperative warehouse in the village, where we are responsible for packing and mailing, and the postage is borne by the platform." Zhang Hanzhong said that in order to further publicize the Dalan grapefruit, they have customized the delivery box with the cooperative, which is printed with the origin of the grapefruit, brand image and so on.
Zhang Meilan said that although e-commerce is her matchmaking, she encourages fruit farmers to sell themselves first, "If you can sell at a better price, of course, it is best, and then find e-commerce to help if there is a slow sale, and the price is also negotiated by them." ”
