Ten years of striding forward, the earth is boundless; The wind blows the wheat waves, and the granaries of the great powers are abundant; Industry prosperity, build a solid foundation for development; Landscape into the painting, retain the beautiful nostalgia; Harmonious civilization, illuminating a happy homeland. Jiangsu Provincial Radio and Television Station, together with the Provincial Civilization Office, the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Provincial Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, and the Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, jointly sponsored the "Walking in the Land of Fish and Rice in the New Era" media news action! Witness the great changes in the countryside and continue to write a chapter of struggle!
On the north bank of the Yellow River Old Road in Suqian City, a butterfly farm for young people after the 80s has bloomed with new vitality. Butterfly farming, specimen making... A butterfly's short life has always been here. How to get rich by butterflies, how many possibilities are there for the development of young people? On July 21st, the Jiangsu Provincial Radio and Television Corporation Rong Media News Action "Walking in the Land of Fish and Rice in the New Era" interview group came to the Guhe River Butterfly Farm in Suqian City, Suqian City, to explore the "butterfly effect" on the road of development.
The warm wind begins. The warm water slowly moves forward along the Yellow River's old road, and next to the old road, peng hua's butterfly farm, a new batch of adult insects are already flying in mid-air.
The owner Peng Hua is from Suqian in 2012. He was a native of Hanzhong, Shaanxi Province, who had just graduated from university that year, and came to Suqian for a simple reason: because of his entrepreneurial "butterfly dream".
In 2008, Peng Hua entered the Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University of Science and Technology, and in the same year, he visited the school's Insect Museum, the first national insect museum in Chinese history, especially the butterfly net room, which made this young man interested in butterflies. The school also has a strong academic atmosphere, so that he studied biology and got close to butterflies. In his sophomore year, Peng Hua began to make specimens in his dormitory and sell them, and began his own small business.
In 2012, Peng Hua ushered in his graduation season, and at the school's job fair, he learned that Suqian was particularly supportive of college students' entrepreneurship. With the idea of starting a business, he came to Suqian.
6 years later, with the help of policies, Peng Hua's own farm was built, with a small area of only 6 acres, but complete settings: butterfly herbarium, specimen production area, barns, and the largest butterfly breeding area for raising live butterflies.
Walk into the farm's butterfly farming area and you'll be amazed. During the adult stage of a butterfly, hundreds of butterflies fly in mid-air, sometimes landing on plants and sometimes dancing around you. After 4 years of development, the butterfly farm has become more and more large.000. Peng Hua built 7 greenhouses, which were changed every two generations according to the growth habits of butterflies. Each shed is divided into two parts, one for butterfly growth and one for host plant cultivation. The shed area is planted with 6 kinds of butterflies, such as green butterflies, citrus butterflies, jade ribbon butterflies, golden spot butterflies, and green spotted butterflies, which can bring him about 100,000 yuan of income every year.
Of course, the most important thing is his old profession - butterfly specimen making. Peng Hua built a specimen making area on the farm, which was dedicated to the production of butterfly specimens. Now that the business volume has expanded, he has recruited a helper to help him deal with some ordinary specimens, some precious varieties, and operate them himself.
What you see in the herbarium of the park will make you even more amazed, here, you can see the specimen of the butterfly of the goddess of light, which is recognized as the most beautiful butterfly in the world, the purple-spotted ring butterfly in the "Zhuang Sheng Xiao Dream Fan Butterfly", and the labor-hour but unforgettable butterfly wing painting. The sale and lease of these specimens brought him an annual income of 700,000 to 800,000 yuan.
New water flows on the old road, by the ancient Yellow River, new stories of struggle are still playing out. Peng Hua is not afraid of hardship: when repairing the greenhouse, he broke his leg and lay down for 3 months; Contact the source of butterfly specimens, be careful to avoid the epidemic... But the harvest is always gratifying: the experience grows, and the channels of his purchase are getting wider and wider; Costs are getting lower and the benefits are getting higher. When he was in college, he could only afford to buy butterflies for up to fifty or sixty yuan, and now he can buy hundreds of precious varieties. He also has new expectations, the development of tourism economy, the popularization of butterfly knowledge, and the improvement of the added value of butterflies... A young man's butterfly entrepreneurial dream is following the flowing river and the pulse of this young city, taking off in the air on the ancient land.
