Now is the first harvest season of wormwood, we now have machinery and equipment, this year just improved it, the efficiency of the machine is also quite high, a day about an hour a machine can harvest ten acres of land, the efficiency is also very high, the harvest is also clean. After about a week of drying, we pack it and receive it in the factory, store it for three years, and then start normal processing.
According to the person in charge of the cooperative, the investment in wormwood planting is small, the effect is fast, 3-4 stubbles can be harvested every year, and the yield per mu is about 3,000 yuan, and the market prospect is very broad, with good economic, ecological and social benefits.
The reporter learned that for farmers who plant wormwood, the cooperative provides technical guidance, unified planting, unified management, unified harvesting, and then deep processing. At the same time, the cooperatives provide "fertilizer, water, harvesting and storage" custodian services to the growers who go out to work.

The wormwood I have planted is in its 3rd year, and I have planted 100 acres. When planting, Egan was provided by the cooperative, and the tube was recycled without worrying about selling. One-time planting, many years of benefit, I feel that this benefit is quite good.
Now that the small wormwood has become a "rich grass" that drives the villagers to increase their income, the cooperative will further expand its scale, develop the whole industry chain of wormwood, boost economic development, and help rural revitalization.
