Walking into the white crispy melon planting base in Anfu Town, Xichuan Town, Yebao and other towns in Qin'an County, I saw that the first batch of planted melon seedlings had been hung with white crispy melons that had turned from green to white or completely white.
Xichuan Town, Shenmingchuan Village greenhouse operator told reporters: "Our crisp melon is expected to pick a month, to the end of June, our melon from green to white is ripe, you smell absolutely fragrant, taste not only sweet, but also very crisp." ”
Wu Qiong, a citizen of Qin'an who was picking crisp melons in the greenhouse, told reporters: "The crisp melons here are very sweet, and I brought my children here today to pick some crisp melons." ”
The reason why Qin'an white crispy melon is widely praised is not only inseparable from the scientific guidance of agricultural technology experts, but also thanks to the long planting history and unique climatic conditions.
Qin'an has a long history of growing white crispy melons, as early as the Ming Dynasty, the famous Qin'an literati Hu Zongzong praised its deliciousness in "Qin Yi Fu". He wrote: "The pear is sweet and moist, and the acres of melons are endless. The kettle is fresh and golden, and it is recommended that the apple of Longqu is recommended. This means that this melon is sweet and crunchy, and it is irresistible.
Qin'an County is located in the western part of the Loess Plateau in Longzhong, with sufficient sunlight, deep soil, large temperature difference between day and night, unique microclimate conditions have created good conditions for the growth of white crispy melon, and has a long history of planting white crispy melon, local farmers have special feelings for white crispy melon, and it is the "family treasure" of Qin'an melon farmers. The white crisp melon produced here is white, the skin is thin, the meat is crisp, the melon is sweet, the shape is oval or round, the single melon weighs about 0.5 kilograms, the melon skin is white and yellow, the melon flesh is light green or similar to the color of the melon skin, the melon taste is crisp and fragrant, the food is refreshing, and the taste is excellent. White crispy melon is also easy to transport and shelf-stable, making it an excellent fruit for visiting relatives and friends in early summer.
In recent years, Qin'an County has adapted measures to local conditions, insisted on making a fuss about characteristic industries, focused on the construction of "sweet" brand, and aimed at "industrial prosperity", taking the cultivation and development of white crispy gourd planting as an effective starting point to promote farmers' income, actively guiding the masses to develop the planting of white crispy gourd, vigorously developing white crispy gourd facility agriculture and dryland white crispy gourd planting, and continuing to promote the quality and efficiency of the county's forest and fruit industry.
