"Clod Head" Transforms into "Gold Ingot"
Wuping Xiangdian Town's Poria industry is happy with a bumper harvest
Recently, on the hill of Xiangyang Village, Xiangdian Town, Wuping County, the pine stumps are "swollen" everywhere, and the farmers are digging the "soil lump head" - Poria cocos, and their faces are filled with the joy of a bumper harvest.
Poria cocos is a precious Chinese herbal medicine, which has a variety of medicinal functions such as clearing heat and detoxifying, strengthening the spleen and dampness, nourishing the liver and kidney, etc., and is widely used in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, with a large market demand.
Mr. Liu, a grower in Xiangyang Village, Xiangdian Town, said happily, "There are many pine forests in Xiangyang Village, which are very sunny and suitable for Poria cocos planting and growth. Under the guidance of the town government, we tried to plant Poria cocos last year, and the effect was very good. ”
In recent years, Xiangdian Town has actively developed the understory economy, revitalized the "sleeping" forest resources, guided the people who are willing, conditional, basic and capable, encouraged them to operate independently, made full use of the sparse forest to cut down pine trees, planted broad-leaved trees, turned waste into treasure and planted Poria cocos and other understory cash crops, and increased the income of the masses.
Liu Zijiang, director of the forestry station of Xiangdian Town, introduced, "After the transformation of the pine forest, the stump can be used to develop Poria cocos planting, which can reduce the pollution of the environment by burning to a certain extent, and can also promote the reduction of pine wood nematode disease, which is conducive to improving the ecological environment, killing two birds with one stone!"
Xiangdian Town is rich in forest resources, excellent ecological environment, warm and humid, and has four distinct seasons, which is very suitable for the growth and cultivation of understory industries such as mushrooms, purple ganoderma lucidum, and Poria cocos. At present, more than 400 acres of Poria cocos are planted under the forest in Xiangdian Town, with an output of 600,000 catties and an output value of 3 million yuan.
Zhong Dongyang, Secretary of the Party Committee of Xiangdian Town, said, "In the next step, we will continue to give full play to the advantages of green resources, adhere to the concept of understory industrial development, increase the support and promotion of understory industries such as Poria cocos, explore a sustainable development of the road of industrial revitalization, and create a new countryside with 'beautiful water, beautiful forests, clean villages, and new ideas for people and industry'." ”
