Xiao Man just passed, not far from the Dragon Boat Festival. On May 24th, walking into the planting base of wormwood industrial park in Shangcai County Development Zone, a strong fragrance and fragrance came to the face, which made people feel relaxed. Patches of wormwood grow happily and endlessly. Not far away, more than 10 workers are busy picking, and the fields are busy. At the same time, more than 20,000 mu of wormwood in Donghong Town, Huapi Town, Xiaoyuesi Township, Dalu Li Township, Wuliangsi Township and other townships in Shangcai County have also been harvested one after another, and "small wormwood" has become a "big industry" for the local people to increase their income and become rich and accelerate rural revitalization.
In the thousand-year-old county of Shangcai, the folk have always had the tradition of planting ai with ai. With the continuous improvement of living standards, people's awareness of health care is getting higher and higher, the traditional Chinese medicine culture has gradually warmed up, and the demand for wormwood is also increasing. Although the cultivation and processing of wormwood in some areas of Shangcai County has been passed down for a long time, most of them are clumsy methods of soil methods, and they have not been able to form large-scale planting and related processing industries.
Many years ago, after accidentally discovering the "energy" of wormwood in the Shangcai Wang Line and using it to save his own cattle, with the help of the preferential policies of Shangcai County to support the development of the industry, he seized the opportunity to build the Wormwood Industrial Park and Processing Workshop in Shangcai County. After obtaining the recognition of "Henan Province Wormwood Deep Processing Engineering Technology Research Center" through excellent products and technologies, Wang Line made great efforts to plant, produce and develop wormwood. "Shang Ai No. 1", "Shang Ai No. 2", "Shang Ai No. 3"... In practice, Wang Xianzhong led the team to constantly explore and innovate, and cultivated a number of high-quality, high-yield new varieties and good varieties.
"I transferred 637 acres of land and planted all wormwood." Zhao Haicheng, a large wormwood planter in Wuliangsi Township, Shangcai County, said that wormwood is a cash crop that has benefited from long-term benefits at one time, with a cost of 800 yuan per mu of mu of mu, and only needs to be weeded and fertilized in the second year, and the average net income per mu is about 2500 yuan, which can be harvested continuously for 4 years, and the economic benefits are obvious. Watching the "small wormwood" for a few dollars become a characteristic "big industry", Wang Xianzhong felt sincerely happy, his strength was greater, his confidence was more sufficient, and the hope of getting rich by relying on wormwood was becoming a reality step by step.
Nowadays, with the support of various policies in Shangcai County and driven by the Wormwood Industrial Park in Shangcai County, the county will achieve a planting area of more than 20,000 mu of wormwood in 2022, and processing enterprises with wormwood as raw materials have also begun to transform from traditional handmade to modern. The reporter saw in the processing workshop of the wormwood industrial park in the Shangcai County Development Zone that the workers were skillfully operating the machine to deep process the wormwood, wormwood balm, wormwood pillar, essential oils, and even high-end wormwood tea... Boxes of products are packed, packed, packed and shipped. From the field to the workshop, from the factory to the market, the one-stop industrial chain model of planting, storage, production and sales has made the small wormwood "gorgeous transformation" and become the "golden seedling" for farmers to increase income and industrial prosperity.
The relevant person in charge of Shangcai County said that Shangcai County has introduced a number of support policies, fully promote the creation of an integrated industrial chain of planting, deep processing and sales, attract more farmers to cooperate, continue to expand the scale of planting in the mode of company + base + farmers, develop more high-end wormwood products, strengthen and enhance the Chinese herbal medicine industry in Shangcai County, so that small wormwood can truly become the "rich grass" of villagers, in order to let the masses really increase their income and get rich, help rural revitalization at the same time, help the construction of "China Medicine Valley", for the "Chinese Medicine Valley" Add luster to the shine.
