"Agriculture is not only facing the loess and back to the sky, but agriculture can also be full of colors, which can be very romantic and passionate..." This poetic language comes from Zhao Zhikun, head of Henan Yuyi Fuyu Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd.
htmlOn May 23, the Macun High-quality Fruit and Vegetable Science and Education Park (Hippo Xianfruit Town) of Henan Agricultural University launched the first new and excellent variety observation meeting. The observation meeting will be held online and offline. Offline Jiaozuo vegetable farmers can observe it on the spot and promote it nationwide in the form of live broadcasts."Hippo Xian Fruit Town has cultivated thousands of varieties of high-quality tomatoes, peppers, melons and fruits. I hope that through such exhibitions, high-quality varieties and technologies will be recommended to melon farmers and vegetable farmers, and good facilities and good sales ideas will be recommended to melon farmers and vegetable farmers, so as to promote farmers' income growth and contribute to rural revitalization." Zhao Zhikun shuttled through the fruit and vegetable display greenhouse, as if he had entered a colorful fairy tale world.
In recent days, dozens of Jiaozuo vegetable farmers have visited and studied in the Hippo Xianguo Town in Macun District every day, and everyone's impression of traditional agriculture and fruit and vegetable cultivation has also been impacted. Here, there are more than 60 varieties of tomatoes, more than 160 varieties of peppers, 32 varieties of pumpkins, and hundreds of varieties of watermelons.
Zhao Zhikun introduced fruit and vegetable breeding as a treasure, which is comparable to the name of a dish in crosstalk. Let’s talk about tomatoes first: tomatoes with yellow skin and yellow flesh, beautiful pink zebra tomatoes, chocolate tomatoes, and 8-point sweet and 2-point sour fruit tomatoes. Let’s talk about chili: This chili looks very good, but don’t be deceived by its beautiful appearance; this chili is very spicy, so the neighbors on the first floor fried chili on the 12th floor will complain. Some of the hot and spicy ones are spicy, and some of the Yusweet red fruit peppers that can be eaten raw, and some of the small mohua suitable for making chili sauce...
What are the good things about high-quality fruit and vegetable varieties? Take 175 peppers as an example. By planting this pepper variety, farmers' per mu yield efficiency increased by 30% to 40%. Zhao Zhikun said that he will give full play to the scientific research advantages of Henan Agricultural University in breeding melon and vegetable varieties, build Macun District into a well-known high-quality melon and vegetable varieties breeding base in Henan Province and even the whole country, and contribute to the revitalization of the seed industry proposed by the country. The Hippo Xianguo Town project will drive employment of surplus labor in Macun District and its surrounding rural areas. Currently, nearly 500 people are employed during the peak period of the park.
Henan Nongda Ma Village High-quality Fruit and Vegetable Research Institute is a characteristic agricultural industry project that is deeply cooperative with Henan Agricultural University and Macun District. It mainly conducts exploration of the operation of the entire industrial chain such as scientific research and breeding of new varieties of high-quality melon and vegetables, popular science education, development of the Agricultural University's own varieties, order production, preservation and processing, agricultural cultural tourism, and e-commerce sales. The first phase of the project invests 35 million yuan, and it will build a variety of facilities such as solar greenhouses, large-span greenhouses, and fresh fruit and vegetable sorting and packaging and refrigeration warehouses. The total facility area is 150,000 square meters.
This project will be built into a first-class Henan Agricultural University High-quality Fruit and Vegetable Research Institute and a first-class college student practice internship base, deepen school-local cooperation, accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and realize the integration of production, ecological life, and the integration of the first, second, and third industries. At present, nearly 40 graduate and undergraduate students at Henan Agricultural University are conducting scientific research and production practices in the Hippo Xianguo Town Garden.
