Recently, the strawberry planting greenhouse in Xixinying Village, Yanjiao Town, welcomed the harvest period. Even in the cold winter, fresh and sweet strawberries can still meet the needs of the general public for fruits, which not only allows growers to obtain considerable income, but also fills the gap of winter picking attractions in Yanjiao Town, a rural cultural tourism route that stretches for ten kilometers from Xiliuhetun in the east to the ancient capital Yanchao Distillery in the west.
Walking into the strawberry greenhouse of the pastoral farm in Xixinying Village, at a glance, among the clusters of emerald green plants, strawberries like small lanterns are adorned with branches, crimson and bright, fruity and fragrant, which makes people salivate. Visitors stroll through the strawberry sheds with small baskets in their hands, and experience the joy of picking fresh strawberries while tasting them. According to Xi Liuyuan, general manager of Farm Farm, in addition to bee pollination, Farm also uses the biological control technology of predatory mites of the Beijing Academy of Agricultural Sciences to control crop diseases and pests, and at the same time replaces chemical fertilizer with organic fertilizer, so that the strawberry fruit not only maintains a fresh taste, but also meets the standard of no pests and no pesticide residues.
It is understood that the strawberry greenhouse adopts a design with a height of 6 meters, a span of 12 meters and a steep slope of 20 degrees, which can make the snowfall slide naturally, and the shed avoids collapsing due to snow. In addition to the strawberry picking garden, the farm has also expanded the cultivation of hydroponic vegetables, which covers seven kinds of sprouts, including toon seedlings, radish seedlings, and pea seedlings.
Small strawberries have formed a large industry and revitalized the rural economy. In recent years, relying on the good ecological environment and location advantages, the city has continuously increased the development of characteristic agricultural industries, and strived to create a suburban travel model integrating leisure, sightseeing and picking, which has achieved industrial prosperity, increased farmers' income, and helped rural revitalization.
