"The flowers are blooming, I want to order 50,000 plants" "Can you send me 100,000 plants at the end of May"... Over the past few days, the members of the team stationed in dabaozi Village, Shengshui Town, Liuhe County, have acted as "customer service" and handled successive "orders" for flowers.
Walking into the Dabaozi Village of Shengshui Town, flower greenhouses rise up one after another, and the fragrance of flowers is refreshing, and the hot strings of red, light and elegant morning glory, and red and yellow peacock grass are in full bloom.
"This flower is a 'treasure' that drives the village out of poverty to increase income, and every order must be carefully handled." The team members stationed in the village told reporters that in 2016, 10 poverty alleviation flower greenhouses were built in the village, and part of the income from the flowers every year was distributed to everyone as dividends, and the rest was used for the construction of the village, so that the villagers took the flowers as the "path" and embarked on the road of poverty alleviation and prosperity.
"The reason why flowers are so popular is that our village has made no less effort." At the beginning of the decision to plant flowers, the selection of seeds is a major problem, Dabaozi village cadres to Inner Mongolia and other areas where flower planting is relatively good, learn experience, and introduce seeds suitable for the growth environment in the village. Flower planting experts are often invited to give villagers "make-up lessons" so that everyone can learn this "craft". In this way, it took a full three years to continuously explore flower planting techniques and accumulate experience, so that we now have the "excellent results" of 800,000 high-quality flowers per year.
"Villagers take care of the flowers as carefully as they take care of their own children." The growth of flowers is so gratifying, and it is closely related to the careful cultivation of the villagers. Seedlings, transplantation, watering..... Starting from the planting of flowers in February, every morning at five or six o'clock the villagers come to the greenhouse to take care of the "children" who are growing up.
This year, the flower greenhouse is expected to drive 1,600 villagers to work nearby, and when recruiting workers, it will focus on the poverty alleviation households and households with living difficulties in the village. Therefore, the flowers in this shed are not only a source of income for everyone in the agricultural leisure season, but also the hope of Dabaozi Village to consolidate the results of poverty alleviation. This represents the "hope" of the flower, who can not take care of it, not as their own treasure?
In order to increase income, make the use value of greenhouses higher, and generate more economic benefits, Dabaozi Village not only grows flowers in the shed, but also grows organic rice, soybeans, sticky corn every year... It is expected that these 10 greenhouses will have a revenue of 500,000 yuan this year. The continuous development of industry in the village has made the villagers' lives more and more promising, and they have embarked on a road to prosperity.
