Small bamboo shoots are exquisite, medium bamboo shoots are crisp, big bamboo shoots are delicious... This morning, in the new Lin'an Taihuyuan bamboo shoot trading market, a small truck full of fresh bamboo shoots drove out of the market one after another, marking the official listing of Lin'an Tianmu thunder shoots in 2021, and also announcing the official use of the largest fresh bamboo shoot trading market in East China after the transformation.
Lin'an is known as "the largest vegetable bamboo garden in Jiangnan", with an area of 460,000 mu of vegetable bamboo such as Lei Zhu, and an annual output of more than 200,000 tons of bamboo shoots.
Taihuyuan Town is the largest Leizhu production area in Lin'an, the scale of the bamboo forest dominated by Leizhu in the town has exceeded 100,000 mu, and 60% of the farmers' income comes from the bamboo industry, which is known as "the hometown of China's Leizhu".
In 2001, with the merger of "three townships and one town" into Taihuyuan Town, the bamboo shoot trading market that was originally scattered in various pieces ushered in the "great unification", and the Taihuyuan bamboo shoot trading market was built in Qingyun Village, and gradually developed into the largest fresh bamboo shoot trading market in East China.
"Since then, tens of thousands of tons of fresh thunder shoots have been sent from here to the whole country and even overseas every year. Especially during the Spring Festival, the average daily flow of people in the trading market exceeded 5,000 people, and the highest daily trading volume of bamboo shoots exceeded 500,000 catties. Zhang Lin, director of the Taihuyuan Town Co-service Center, said.
Lang Sufang, a local bamboo shoot buyer, has witnessed the gradual growth of the Taihuyuan bamboo shoot trading market, 56-year-old she is a native of Hengxu Village, and her family has planted a large number of thunder shoots since her father's generation, and has also contracted more than 10 acres of Thunder Shoot Garden.
Lang Sufang and her husband have been stationed in the Taihuyuan bamboo shoot trading market for a long time, specializing in the purchase and trading of bamboo shoots. "When I first arrived, the market was a bit shabby, but the volume of transactions was growing every year." She said.
With the growing bamboo shoot industry, the configuration of a row of bungalows along the street and dozens of acquisition shops can no longer meet the demand. Last year, Taihuyuan Town carried out a large-scale renovation of the bamboo shoot trading market, the new bamboo shoot trading market covers an area of nearly 20 acres, not only has it newly completed a two-story office building along the street with an area of about 5,000 square meters, but also nearly 70 acquisition shops.
"This transformation is not only the need to create a provincial-level modern agricultural park, but also effectively revitalizes the inefficient land in the town and solves the office problems of e-commerce centers and other institutions." Zhang Lin, director of the Taihuyuan Town Public Service Center, said that the bamboo shoot trading market that was originally right had a single function, and half of the year was vacant, but now after transformation, it can be operated all year round.
It is reported that the newly transformed Taihuyuan bamboo shoot trading market also has three major functions: agricultural machinery service functions (science and technology to benefit farmers), marketing services (live e-commerce, bamboo shoot trading), and convenience management center.
Taking the marketing service function as an example, at present, 6 e-commerce companies in the town have signed contracts and will soon enter the bamboo shoot trading market, and then form a cluster effect. These e-commerce companies can not only help the sales of Tianmu lei shoots in the bamboo shoot season, but also after the bamboo shoot season, they can still sell lin'an small sweet potatoes, Dongkeng tea, bamboo shoots canned and other agricultural products.
The agricultural machinery service function also runs through the whole year, and the new bamboo shoot trading market has a soil testing formula station, which can help farmers measure soil trace elements, apply fertilizer scientifically, and reduce the amount of fertilizer, thereby reducing agricultural non-point source pollution and reducing farmers' burdens.
"In the next step, Taihuyuan Town will also build a large bamboo shoot rough processing base to further improve the service bamboo shoot transaction." Zhang Lin said.
At today's listing ceremony of Tianmu Lei bamboo shoots, Lin'an District Supply and Marketing Cooperatives and affiliated enterprises Hangzhou Lin'an Agricultural Union Asset Management Co., Ltd. won the first batch of sales of Tianmu Lei Bamboo Shoots.
"This year, we will be committed to the linkage of the three industries, and cooperate with more than 10 large households of Lin'an bamboo shoots, while ensuring the quality of Tianmu thunder shoots, directly selling them to thousands of households at the most favorable price." Li Xiaoling, deputy general manager of Hangzhou Lin'an Nonghelian Asset Management Co., Ltd., said that with the new launch of the bamboo shoot trading market in Taihuyuan Town, everyone will taste more and more high-quality and inexpensive Tianmu thunder shoots. These bamboo shoots will be transported to The Shanghai Farmers' Market, Xiaoshan Farmers' Market, Yunji, Dingdong, Hema and other e-commerce platforms, and will be accepted for community group purchases.
It is understood that because of the recent drought, this year's Tianmu lei shoots are listed nearly half a month later than in previous years, and the amount is not much, and the current price of high-quality bamboo shoots per kilogram is generally about 18 yuan.
△ The "fruit shoots" in high-quality Tianmu thunder shoots are also very delicious to eat raw, and they are two or three yuan / kg more expensive than ordinary thunder shoots
"Today we have collected more than 3,000 kilograms of bamboo shoots, which will be sent to Hema Fresh and some large supermarkets in Hangzhou, Shanghai and other places after rough processing." Lang Sufang said that it rained in the past two days, and the rain will fall for a few days, and the production of bamboo shoots will rise.
It is worth mentioning that with the listing of the first wave of Tianmu lei shoots in 2021, Lin'an is brewing a big move - Lin'an characteristic agricultural products, including Tianmu lei shoots, will be launched with the new regional public brand of "Tianmu Shanbao".
According to reports, the first batch of 11 enterprises selected to authorize the use of "Tianmu Shanbao" regional public brands are Tianmu Qingding Tea, Tianmu Dried Bamboo Shoots and Tianmu Lei Bamboo Shoots, Lin'an Pecans, which will be newly unveiled next Wednesday.
