In the past few days, Salewuzeke Township, Minfeng County, has actively guided farmers to make full use of idle land space and crop growth time differences, vigorously promote cumin planting, continue to broaden channels to promote agricultural income, and inject new vitality into rural revitalization.
On July 1, the reporter learned in Sareyi Village, Salewuzeke Township, that this year, the intercropping mode of red dates and fennel was introduced, and advanced drip irrigation fertilization technology was used to ensure that crops received sufficient water and nutrients. Located on the edge of the Taklamakan Desert, the traditional single-crop cultivation model has been difficult to significantly increase farmers' incomes due to natural constraints. In order to change this situation, the village committee has continued to try to plant all kinds of crops, with the goal of short time and good efficiency, and strive to make the villagers' "money bags" bulge.

Yakupu Maititursun, secretary of the Sareyi village branch: "Through this intercropping model, we can not only make full use of land resources, but also effectively prevent wind and sand fixation, and reduce soil erosion. Interplanting fennel in jujube fields can make fennel's root system more developed and help loosen the soil, while jujube provides shade for fennel and creates a more suitable growing environment. ”

In order to fully promote this planting model, the Salewuzeke Township Government also plans to introduce more agricultural technical personnel and hold technical training from time to time to help farmers master modern agricultural technology. At present, 190 acres of fennel have been planted in Salewuzeke Township, with an output of about 250 kilograms per mu, about 20 yuan per kilogram, and it is expected to be listed at the end of July.
Uhririkhan Osman, a resident of Sareyi village: "The previous monoculture method was prone to degrade the land, but now the quality of the land has improved significantly, and we have applied fennel with drip fertilization, which saves water and ensures that water and nutrients are directly supplied to the plant roots, which significantly improves the growth rate and yield of the crop." ”
