Wen County: "planting" into a highland "wheat" to a bumper harvest
Grain is the foundation of society, and seed industry is the foundation of grain.
In Wenxian County, North Henan Plain, in the fields in May, the wheat waves are tumbling and surging with the hope of a bumper harvest. As a well-known high-yield grain area in the country, the first county with a wheat yield of 1,000 jin per mu in the country, and the first county with a ton of grain per mu north of the Yellow River, the wheat yield here has maintained the leading level in the country for 34 consecutive years. "China's wheat looks at Henan, and Henan's wheat looks at Wenxian County." As early as 2017, Guo Tiancai, who was the director of the National Wheat Engineering Technology Research Center and the deputy head of the wheat expert group of the Ministry of Agriculture, made an "accurate comment" on the status of wheat production in Wenxian County in the country.
In the vast Paleo-Wenzhou Plain, which spreads between mountains and rivers, there are more than 300,000 acres of wheat seed breeding bases, and more than 150 million kilograms of wheat seeds are exported annually. Wenmai series of excellent wheat varieties have a high proportion in Huanghuai wheat field. It can be said that the high-quality "Henan grain" in the rice bowl of the Chinese people has always hidden the "Wenxian core". From selling grain, breeding to exporting improved seeds and technology, from high-yield, high-efficiency to high-quality, high-quality and high-quality leapfrog development, how did Wenxian County call the brand of "Wenmai China Seeds"?
From God-given to ingenuity, a seed has paved a "golden road" for farmers to increase their income.
The history of the cultivation and breeding of Wenmai can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Since the seventies and eighties of the 20th century, the villages have set up experimental stations, trained agricultural technicians in the county, and passed on through several generations of breeders, creating a glorious history of wheat seed industry in Wenxian County.
As early as June 5, 2006, Academician Li Zhensheng, head of the National Grain Harvest Project Acceptance Expert Group, led the expert group to Wenxian County to conduct actual acceptance of 15 acres of Yumai 49-198 wheat. Wei Yizhang, head of the planting industry expert group of the Ministry of Agriculture, announced that the 15 acres of Yumai 49-198 wheat ultra-high-yield research fields set up by the National Grain Yield Science and Technology Project in Wenxian County have an average yield of 717.2 kilograms per mu. Recently, Lv Qingfeng, general manager of Henan Ping'an Seed Industry, introduced, "At that time, Academician Li Zhensheng said that the redevelopment of wheat production must have a number of excellent pilot varieties, and Yumai 49-198 represents this direction." ”
Henan Ping'an Seed Industry, located in Wenxian County, once created a miracle of Wenxian wheat seeds "sold all over the country" in the 90s of the 20th century. The company focuses on the implementation of the "company + base + farmer" model, which has achieved good benefits in helping the masses increase production and income. In recent years, the county has innovated the business model of "village collective + agricultural trusteeship company + seed company + seed production base", and the county's more than 30 acres of wheat seed base have all implemented order agriculture, and the purchase price is 10% higher than the market commodity grain price, and farmers have increased their income by more than 100 yuan per mu.
From ploughing the field to being well-known throughout the country, a seed has achieved the "Yangjin dream" of breeding experts.
To promote breeding, it is necessary to "sharpen the sword for ten years and work for a long time".
In Wenxian County, there are countless wheat field watchmen who are devoted to the study of wheat breeding, from green silk to white hair, sowing wheat seeds into their hearts and planting them in the field. According to statistics, Wenxian County has more than 150 breeding experts and wheat breeding talents such as Wang Huanying, Wang Zhibo, Wang Qianju, Lv Ping'an, Wang Suxia and other farmers. Among them, more than 50 people have intermediate and senior professional titles, and have won more than 50 national, provincial and municipal science and technology progress awards.
Day by day, year by year, the number of generations of breeders has been sticking to it for ten years, and they have been cultivating one generation after another. They are not afraid of the sun and rain, and they are repeatedly in the field, staring at the seeds, from planting, breaking the soil, and growing leaves, to jointing, heading, and fruiting; Decades of painstaking efforts to cultivate a large number of warm wheat varieties, so that warm wheat varieties occupy an irreplaceable position in China and even the world's wheat seed queue, but also made a great contribution to helping the people increase income.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Henan wheat varieties have been updated 10 times. Among them, Wenmai 2540, Wenmai 4, Wenmai 6, Wenmai 8 and Yumai 49-198, which were cultivated by Wenxian scientific and technological personnel, led the five upgrading of wheat varieties in the Huanghuaihai winter wheat area. Up to now, Wenxian County has cultivated a total of 47 wheat varieties, 14 of which have passed the national examination and won 1 National Science and Technology Progress Award.
In recent years, Wenxian County has taken scientific and technological support as the explosive force to grasp the "chip", and made every effort to optimize the arrangement and combination of key elements such as policies, talents, and scientific research. Build a wheat breeding talent system led by the government, with enterprises as the main body, with the participation of scientific research institutions, academicians and experts, university talents, and "local experts", and cultivate more than 50 seed enterprises; Through the use of biological breeding technology, 24 wheat seed varieties were cultivated, and excellent wheat germplasm resources were introduced, collected and created.
From the breeding base to the seed industry highland, a seed has become the "golden granary" of the Central Plains of China.
"Wenxian County has created a record of leading the province in terms of average yield per mu of wheat for more than 30 consecutive years, and the brand of 'Wenmai China Seeds' is well-known throughout the country. It can be said that the high-quality 'Henan grain' in the rice bowl of the Chinese people has always been contributed from the land of Wen County. This is the evaluation of Wen Xuhua, chief economist of the Henan Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, on the Wenmai varieties.
The "breeding base" has grown into a "seed industry highland", and Wenxian County has taken the initiative to shoulder the important task of "ensuring national food security".
Highlight "excellent". Through the establishment of a closed-loop management system of "seed industry management + law enforcement supervision + agricultural technology service + association self-discipline", the market is optimized; Through the establishment of Wenxian Agricultural Science and Technology Innovation Fund and Modern Agricultural Risk Compensation Fund, the guarantee is optimized; Through the continuous implementation of the creation of wheat production "tons and a half of grain" and the improvement project of ultra-high yield, we will optimize support and enhance industrial development capabilities.
Grab the "link". Through the joint construction of China Seed Group and Wenxian Seed Industry Alliance, we will build a standardized breeding base, realize the whole process mechanization mode, and promote service intensification and base informatization; Relying on the joint construction of the National Biological Breeding Industry Innovation Center (Wenxian) Experimental Station, we will promote the deep coupling of the "five chains" of innovation chain, industrial chain, supply chain, factor chain and institutional chain, and accelerate the development of new agricultural productivity.
Closely follow the "increase". By encouraging seed industry enterprises to apply for well-known trademarks, accelerate the cultivation of famous brands and trademarks; Through the establishment of the "exhibition field + expo + regional alliance + seed company" sales model, the new varieties of superior warm wheat will be displayed in a centralized manner. At present, the county has applied for more than 50 seed trademarks, registered the regional public brand of "Wenmai China Seeds", among which "Yu'an" won the "Henan Famous Trademark".
In addition, relying on the only wheat museum in the country, Wenxian County has held six consecutive sessions of the China Wenxian Wheat Seed Industry Expo. Through the establishment of an expert forum, well-known academicians, experts and professors of the national seed industry were invited to discuss the development of Wenxian seed industry and clarify the development path. In the past six years, more than 500 enterprises have ordered more than 600 million kilograms of wheat seeds in Wenxian County.
Grain, the life of the people, the warehouse is solid, and the world is safe; species, the country is also big, good seeds, stable cornerstone; Breeding good seeds, such as breeding good talents. intensive cultivation, cold dew sowing; Winter Tibetan introverted, temper the mind; Grow hair in spring, remove miscellaneous and inferior; The summer seeds are full, and they have to be always. Right now, the vast wheat waves in Wenxian County are worshipping the boundless green and yellow. Thousands of open warehouses are waiting to welcome the richness of the wheat fields and the gathering of wheat seeds.
