Today, the "Granary of China" series of reports into Jiangxi, the hometown of fish and rice. Jiangxi is the province with the highest proportion of double-cropping rice cultivation in China. Spanning three seasons from early rice sowing in March to late rice harvest in November, Poyang Lake nourishes a rich land and industrious locals give back to an ecological granary. Yugan County, Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province, is located on the southeast bank of Poyang Lake, where rice flowers are fragrant and aquatic products are fragrant during the harvest season.

When the rice flowers are fragrant, they say that the harvest of rice is abundant in Shangrao, Jiangxi. However, when the writer wrote it, he could not imagine that the yield of late rice harvested here can reach 1400 catties per mu, plus 1000 catties of early rice, and one mu of land can produce more than 2,000 catties of grain per year, which is a real bumper harvest. In addition to the abundant material grain, here is also a steady stream of spiritual food, Jiangxi literary style flourished, an inch of time and an inch of gold, from the Shangrao cultivators. Perhaps he also got inspiration from farming, because in Jiangxi, where double-cropping rice is grown, the most critical link is to harvest early rice and rush to plant late rice in July, and a "grab" word is enough to see the industriousness of the farmers here and the richness of the land. To ensure food security, the combination of increasing income and reducing losses has made it difficult for many experts to solve the problem of machine harvest losses, and local farmers have found a good way. After harvesting the grain, they drove the ducks and geese into the field, and the fallen ears were eaten to the best of their ability, and the machine harvested and the ducks were harvested, and the loss was not worried.
The necessary condition for raising ducks and geese is to have water, where the groundwater-rich land does not dry all year round, so it is particularly suitable for rice planting and waterfowl breeding.
Yugan is the hometown of China's Qishi, ten thousand acres of Qishi are opened, the sky is full of clouds and shadows, and the canal is as clear as promised, only the source of living water comes.
It is not only the home of fish and rice, but also a paradise for migratory birds and a harbor for porpoises. During the harvest season, the local government also reserves wintering grain for migratory birds that are not harvested, and the migratory birds are full of food and pay for the rest. As the water level of Poyang Lake dropped during the dry period, the finless porpoise gradually gathered near the finless porpoise bay about 10 kilometers away from here, where there are many fish in the deep water, and more than 200 of the only about 1,000 finless porpoises in the Yangtze River Basin live there.
Even the timeless phrase "The sunset and the lone bird fly together, and the autumn water is long and colorful" describes only the daily life of the local lunar calendar in September. Yugan County has the largest aquaculture area in the province, and Daming Lake on the shore of Poyang Lake is a natural aquaculture farm with an area of more than 120,000 mu.
Jiangxi Yugan: Good ecology attracts "guests" thousands of acres of rice fields to become migratory bird canteens
At present, the autumn grain harvesting work in various parts of Jiangxi is in full swing, but at the Kangshan Reclamation Farm in Yugan County, the 1,000 acres of rice fields there are still quietly waiting for "diners" from afar. In autumn, a thousand acres of rice paddies on the shores of Poyang Lake have reached the harvest season, and Jiang Liangqing, a large grain grower, often comes here, not to harvest, but just to see if the "guests" in the distance have arrived.
Because of its proximity to Poyang Lake, asia's largest wintering habitat for migratory birds, migratory birds have frequented Jiangliangqing's rice fields in recent years. Affected by the cold wave last year, wintering migratory birds arrived in Jiangxi ahead of schedule, and because Poyang Lake continued to have a high water level, aquatic plants were affected, and migratory birds were short of food, so they came to the rice fields in the lake area to forage for food.
In order to protect migratory birds and prevent farmers from suffering losses, the Yugan County government purchased rice from farmers at a higher price than the market, and used 1,000 mu of rice fields as "migratory bird canteens". With compensation, farmers have no worries, and the arrival of the white crane makes them feel that the way of ecological cultivation has been recognized over the years.
Jiang Liangqing, chairman of Jiangxi Yugan Tianliang High-quality Rice Planting Professional Cooperative: There are many snails, loaches and yellow eels in the field, because it is a biological agent to replace chemical pesticides, the ecology is not damaged, migratory birds are very spiritual, and the ecology is good and willing to come.
Jiang Liangqing found that a large number of migratory birds foraged in the rice fields, not only leaving organic fertilizer for the rice fields, but also attracting tourists to help him expand the rice market.
Jiang Liangqing, chairman of jiangxi Yugan Tianliang high-quality rice planting professional cooperative: Photography enthusiasts from all over the country, as well as sightseers, come here to see the environment and products, we can reduce the amount of fertilizer used, and we can improve product quality, this is a double harvest.
This year, the "migratory bird canteen" in Yugan will also be opened for food, and more and more farmers have joined the team of bird lovers and bird guards. Now migratory birds have become the "product image spokesperson" of Jiang Liangqing's cooperative, creating a rice brand related to "cranes", which has been welcomed by the market. This year's rice has not yet been harvested, and orders are pouring in from all over the country.
Jiang Liangqing, chairman of jiangxi Yugan Tianliang High-quality Rice Planting Professional Cooperative: We have increased publicity and sold this as a special product to all parts of the country, and it is about to sell out this year.
