insufficient
The city's jasmine planting area is still on the small side
Although the city has taken active measures to expand the planting area of jasmine, the planting area is still small due to multiple factors.
Law enforcement inspections found that individual bases were damaged by the disaster and did not replant jasmine in time, but instead planted other crops. "We asked farmers, why don't they want to grow jasmine? They said that jasmine is susceptible to natural disasters, the economic benefits of planting are not high, and labor costs are increasing year by year, even if the production is increased, it may not increase the income. The relevant person in charge of the Standing Committee of the Municipal People's Congress said.
Although he has tasted the sweetness of the Jasmine Tea Cultural Tourism Project, Fu Tianlong believes that the current level of industrial integration development is not high, the product structure is relatively single, and the radiation driving capacity is weak.
suggestion
Strive for the "14th Five-Year Plan"
16,000 acres of jasmine were planted
After taking the pulse, the law enforcement inspection team put forward a series of opinions and suggestions: "The municipal government should incorporate the protection and development of jasmine tea into the national economic and social development plan, increase capital investment, and compile and issue the "Special Plan for the Protection and Development of Fuzhou Jasmine and Tea Culture System" before the end of the year to optimize the spatial layout of jasmine planting." ”
The law enforcement inspection team also formulated a list of key issues and proposed to support leading enterprises to build jasmine planting bases in the "two rivers and four banks" and along the Dazhang Creek, which will be implemented before the end of the year. Strive to increase the area of jasmine planting in the city during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period by 16,000 mu.
In view of the problem that jasmine planting is easily affected by natural disasters, the law enforcement inspection team requires that jasmine planting be included in agricultural natural disaster insurance before the end of the year, set a minimum protection purchase price, timely cash in new planting subsidy funds, and improve farmers' enthusiasm for planting. At the same time, it is recommended that the municipal government also give rewards for projects such as the improvement of jasmine varieties and the improvement of jasmine tea making technology.
