Since the beginning of this year, Guangxi Jinfu Agricultural Co., Ltd. has focused on building a modern industrial system, developing new quality productivity according to local conditions, actively exploring the "sugarcane + dragon fruit" rotation model, and seeking a new way for traditional industries to innovate, upgrade, develop and grow.

On March 28, the reporter saw in the Jinfu Agricultural Dragon Fruit Base that two sugarcane planters were shuttling back and forth in the field. Planting, planting, fertilizing, and mulching are all done in one go. After a few hours of busyness, dozens of acres of land where dragon fruit was originally planted have been planted with sugarcane, an excellent variety of sugarcane with high sugar and high yield.

It is understood that Jinfu agriculture has been planting dragon fruit for ten years, at the beginning because of the lack of technology, resulting in a lot of dragon fruit planting is not standardized, the technology content is low, and the comprehensive utilization rate is not high. At the same time, when planting dragon fruit, a large amount of organic fertilizer is applied, but dragon fruit is a superficial root plant, and its root system can only absorb the surface fertilizer, resulting in a lot of fertilizer is not fully absorbed and precipitates in the ground. In response to this situation, this year, Jinfu Agriculture explored the "sugarcane + dragon fruit" rotation model, gave full play to the advantages of the intelligent agricultural technology system supporting the dragon fruit planting base, realized the effective monitoring of sugarcane planting soil and made full use of nutrients, and converted 600 acres of dragon fruit to sugarcane, boosted the construction of high-yield and high-sugar sugar cane base, promoted the production and income of sugarcane farmers and sugar industry, and strived to achieve the goal of "one sugarcane with two sweets".
Su Xiuqing, President of Guangxi Jinfu Agricultural Co., Ltd.: We also hope that through a high-standard sugarcane planting in our base, more people can see that sugarcane has a very deep potential that can be continuously tapped, and we want to let the people see the power of modern agriculture to promote the high-quality development of our sugarcane.
