A vivid and gorgeous autumn harvest picture will jump in front of you
On September 25th, the reporter came to the Guangxi Academy of Sciences High-tech Group's "One Mu of Grain Field to Raise a Cow" planting cycle project and Liuzhou Breeding Center "Giant Forage Rice" continuous planting standardization demonstration base located in Zhudatun, Tongle Village, Chengtuan Town.
"I didn't expect that rice could grow so tall! I've heard of 'Hexia Cool Dream' before, and now I can really sit down and enjoy the coolness. This rice has long ears, many grains, strong branching force, and an average of more than 20 effective ears per hole, and the yield must be good, and we all want to follow the planting. Qin Yuming, a villager who was working in the fields, praised again and again.
"The more than 120 acres of rice in front of us are the second variety of pasture special rice that we planted in early June this year, unified seedling, planting and management, after more than three months of growth, the good genes of the variety are revealed. The average plant height is about 1.9 meters, and the highest plant height is more than 2 meters, which is about 1 meter higher than ordinary rice. Wei Shunxiong, the project leader, said that in 2023, they will start a small-area planting demonstration, and one mu of grain field can harvest about 600-700 kg of rice and about 3 tons of straw in one season, and the annual output value per mu is expected to reach 6,500 yuan. The variety has the characteristics of thick stalks, large ears and many grains, high seed setting rate, great yield potential, excellent rice quality, straw has multiple economic values, yellow seeds and green leaves when mature, and can be used for silage, papermaking and building materials processing.
After continuous research and exploration, Wei Shunxiong has basically explored a set of relatively mature planting models, and the project was officially settled in Chengtuan Town, Liujiang District in March this year, with a planting area of more than 250 acres. It is understood that Liuzhou Breeding Center actively builds a benchmark for the modern planting and breeding cycle industry, builds a new R&D service for the development of the project industry, and uses the advantages of comprehensive resources such as enterprise talents, technology and platforms to develop cooperation related to the local economy and industrial needs, so as to plug in the wings of science and technology for agriculture and realize food safety, industrial landing and industrial revitalization.
"We have a very good crop planting foundation in Chengtuan Town, and the development of rice, sugarcane, grapes, and strawberry industries is becoming more and more mature. In addition to enjoying the economic benefits brought by the forage rice industry chain, it can also be inspired and applied to other industries to further promote the quality and efficiency of the agricultural industry. Qin Junhua, member of the political and legal committee of the party committee and deputy mayor of Chengtuan Town, said.
In recent years, Liujiang District has deeply implemented the strategy of "storing grain on the ground and storing grain in technology", and has made great efforts in the introduction and high-yield cultivation of "giant rice", and has continuously carried out demonstrations of different varieties, different sowing dates and different transplanting densities in Baipeng, Jinde, Chengtuan and other towns, exploring the best cultivation method of "giant rice", and promoting grain production and farmers' income.
