In the golden autumn, there is a harvest scene in all parts of Shantou City. Yesterday morning, the reporter walked into the Niutianyang area of Jinping District to record and share the joy of the harvest of farmers in this land of fish and rice.
Liu Xionghui is a farmer in the Dachang community of Yunlian Street, he has been farming South American white shrimp for more than ten years, in these 20 acres of ponds, more than 2 million shrimp fry released during the Qingming Dynasty this year have ushered in the harvest season.
Liu Xionghui, a farmer, said: "This year's harvest is OK, the output is almost 10% higher than in previous years, and the price is slightly higher than in the past. ”
Niutianyang is located in Shantou Inner Harbor, on the west side of the Rong River, this unique water environment at the junction of saltwater and freshwater is rich in fish, shrimp, crab shellfish and other aquatic products, especially green crab and white shrimp, which are the most famous. Niutianyang area has a total of more than 30,000 acres of breeding area, polyculture fish, shrimp and crabs, in normal years, mu yield of about 500 kilograms, output value of about 10,000 yuan, the entire aquaculture area annual output value of hundreds of millions of yuan. Liu Xionghui and other farmers through hard work, the days are getting more and more prosperous.

Under the illumination of the autumn sun, the water surface of the pond is sparkling, and the beautiful ecological environment is pleasing to the eye. The bumper harvest of aquatic products is also the result of ecological environmental protection work. With the development of black and odorous water remediation, the water environment of the Yuji River has been qualitatively changed, which has promoted the improvement of the water quality of the entire Niutianyang water system, and farmers enjoy a bumper harvest.
"Tonight I'm going to make a good dish of shrimp from my own fishing, boil and steam, share it with my family, and share the fruits of my labor." Liu Xionghui said.

We also hope that more farmer friends can use their diligent hands to continue to write more harvest stories on this field of hope.
