This year, Shishan Village, Guanxing Town, Yuqing County, guided by party building, adopted the method of order recycling through the model of "large households + farmers" to develop the sweet potato industry according to local conditions. In recent days, local villagers have been busy transplanting sweet potato vines and planting "potato light" to get rich.
In the misty sweet potato planting base in Shishan Village, Guanxing Town, the villagers are surrounded by sweet potato vines in one hand and transplanting tools in the other, and the sweet potato seedlings are inserted into the soil ridges covered with film in an orderly manner.
Tan Yongzhong, a deputy to the people's congress at the county and township levels and a villager of Shishan Village, took the initiative to purchase sweet potatoes grown by the villagers last year and sold them to Guizhou Jialijia Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. to process sweet potato vermicelli, and the income was good. So this year, he wants to demonstrate the cultivation of sweet potatoes, so as to drive the local villagers to develop sweet potato cultivation and eventually form a characteristic industry.
"Last year, I pulled more than 80 tons of sweet potatoes to the Jialijia Agricultural Development Company in Sinan County, and the five dimes a pound is still very considerable. Tan Yongzhong said.
This year, Tan Yongzhong took the initiative to sign an order for more than 300 acres and 800 tons of sweet potatoes with Guizhou Jialijia Agricultural Development Co., Ltd., and adopted the planting model of "large households + farmers", developing 220 acres by himself and driving the surrounding villagers to plant 130 acres.
At the same time, a lot of labor is required from ploughing the land to transplanting sweet potatoes, which also allows the surrounding villagers to work nearby to increase their income. 67-year-old Wu Hongyu is one of them, "I started working at the base, I have been working for 13 days, and I got 2,400 yuan. ”
"Sweet potatoes from sowing to ripening and harvesting need a large number of villagers, now the daily labor fee per person is 110 yuan, start work at 8 o'clock in the morning, rest for an hour at noon, get off work at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, everyone is still very happy. Tan Yongzhong said.
This year, the sweet potato industry of more than 350 acres in Shishan Village is expected to harvest 1.6 million catties of sweet potatoes, which can generate 800,000 yuan of income for the local people, of which 150,000 yuan will increase the income of migrant workers. (All-media reporter Li Ning)
