Sangzi Town closely focuses on the layout of "watermelon town", based on agricultural resources and characteristic advantages, creates landmark products, continues to make the watermelon industry bigger, stronger and better, continuously transforms resource advantages and brand advantages into economic advantages and competitive advantages, strives to improve industrial benefits, and drives rural revitalization with industrial revitalization.
Now is the season when watermelons are on the market in large quantities, walking into the watermelon greenhouse of Fengqiu Family Farm in Sangzi Town, the air is filled with the sweet smell of watermelons, and the watermelons are dressed in emerald coats, "hiding" under the lush melon vines, which is lovely. Farmers are busy pinching watermelons, and the scene is busy.
Fengqiu Family Farm Cui Fengqiu: I planted 20 acres of watermelons, varieties such as Beyond Dream, Jingmei 2K, Quanmei 2K, etc., the yield of the drying shed is about 6000-8000 catties per mu, and the greenhouse yield is about 4000-5000 catties per mu, and the income is very considerable.
Watermelon has a good yield and taste, because of good seeds. Sangzi Town seized the opportunity of modern agricultural development, introduced Sangtian Zidi Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd., built a 120-acre Sangzi watermelon seed breeding base, actively introduced and promoted new varieties and technologies, and further improved the research and development and cultivation capabilities of watermelon varieties. At present, there are more than 2,000 new combinations of watermelon seeds in the base, and the first batch of new watermelon varieties such as Mingyue and Langyue have been successfully registered and marketed.
Yin Mingli, general manager of Sangtian Zidi Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd.: We have more than 1,000 kinds of test and matching combinations this year, including small melon types, gift melon types, medium-sized melon types, and large melon types, which can meet different planting needs. Some combinations can reach a sugar content of 16.5 and are crispy and refreshing. Next, we are preparing to produce a large number of seeds and multiply, so that local people can plant them and produce high-quality watermelons to meet the market demand.
At the same time, Sangzi Town has made every effort to do a good job in the "Huinong" service, relying on online live broadcast to continuously expand watermelon sales channels, and let local characteristic agricultural products take the e-commerce express train through live broadcast to enter thousands of households, so as to boost the "Sangzi Watermelon" brand out of Jizhou and to the whole country.
At present, the total planting area of Sangzi watermelon has reached more than 5,600 acres, including more than 2,100 acres of watermelons in facilities, more than 3,500 acres of open-field watermelons, and more than 630 farmers driven by radiation. The average yield per mu of watermelon is about 4,000 kilograms, of which the yield per mu of open-field large-fruited watermelon reaches more than 5,000 kilograms, the yield of high-quality hanging vine watermelon per mu reaches more than 3,000 kilograms, and the average output value per mu reaches more than 20,000 yuan. The annual output of watermelons in the town is 26,000 tons, the annual output value is 100 million yuan, and the annual net income is more than 51 million yuan. Some of the facilities have achieved the planting of high-quality watermelons in spring and autumn, and the economic income has reached a new level.
Sun Zhiqiang, deputy mayor of Sangzi Town: In the next step, Sangzi Town will work hard to improve product quality by introducing excellent varieties, launching characteristic brands, and developing sales channels, so as to make the Sangzi watermelon industry, which is well-known in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, bigger, better and stronger. Give full play to the leading role of Sangtian Zidi Agricultural Science and Technology Company, select and breed new technologies and new varieties of watermelon, and open up the seed industry to revitalize new quality productivity. Taking the opportunity of creating a year of quality and safety of agricultural products, we will implement a demonstration system, hang ID cards on greenhouses, and label traceability codes for qualified agricultural products to ensure the safety of vegetable baskets from the field. Vigorously promote the national landmark and the honorary title of Jinnong boutique won by Sangzi watermelon, create new selling points for good agricultural products, and sell at a good price. Give full play to the leading role of the Agricultural Products Association, vigorously develop the Beijing-Tianjin community market, continuously push the Sangzi watermelon to the public's table, and strive to make the Sangzi watermelon sweet and the taste of Sangzi known throughout the country.
