Now is the "golden age" of Chinese herbal medicine planting. In the fields of Minle County, you can see the busy figures of villagers planting astragalus everywhere, outlining a vivid "spring ploughing map".
Walking into the astragalus planting base in Xinfeng Village, Hongshui Town, Minle County, a set of agricultural machinery is working back and forth, and the villagers put the astragalus seedlings into the ground through the machine, which is a busy scene.
Tong Fayu, manager of the first project department of Gansu Yasheng Benyuan Chinese Medicinal Materials Co., Ltd.: "This year, more than 4,500 acres of astragalus are planted, and now the transplanting link of astragalus is on 11 machines today, with 8 people on each machine, and the amount of labor is relatively large. ”
In recent years, Gansu Yasheng Origin Chinese Medicinal Materials Co., Ltd. has coordinated the transfer of land through the village collective economic organization and built a demonstration base for the cultivation of standardized astragalus of 1,000 acres, leading the local villagers to embark on the road to prosperity.
Tong Fayu, manager of the first project department of Gansu Yasheng Benyuan Chinese Medicinal Materials Co., Ltd.: "Xinfeng's land has been leveled before and now, and it is a large area of more than 300-400 acres of land, which is more conducive to our large-scale mechanical operations, and the soil quality here is convenient and more suitable for the conditions of astragalus planting, which has been planted in Xinfeng base for three years, and is more than 3,000 acres every year. ”
Based on the advantages of county resources, Minle County has made every effort to promote the development pattern of traditional Chinese medicinal materials with regional layout, standardized production and integrated operation, and strives to build a pioneer area for the innovation and development of traditional Chinese medicinal materials integrating planting, processing, warehousing and trading.
Yin Jindong, cadre of Minle County Agriculture and Rural Bureau: "We will take the development of ecological economy as the guide and market demand as the guide, and strive to build a large county for the production of Chinese medicinal materials in the province, and build an important production and processing base and distribution center for Chinese medicinal materials in the western region." ”
