Beigu Village 's past has magical legends and prosperous scenes; the present of Beigu Village has many expectations about water.
The past memory of dripping
When talking about dripping, Hao Jianshe said that in the past, the old man often said that in the land in the village, there would be water if it was dug two or three feet, and the water level was very shallow. When he was a child, he often connected the wheat straw with his friends and put it into the well and sucked the water up. Water is sweet water, you can drink it directly. "At that time, the wells in the south were only two or three meters deep. The depth of the wells is now 270 or eighty meters, and the water level has dropped so much. Wells with a slightly shallow water level can no longer be used now, and water will not be released."
The village now uses yellow water, which is picked up from Yao Meng in the south through the lifting station. Many years ago, there was only one well in the village to draw water, in front of the water tower of the brigade. At the beginning, before water tower was built, the villagers used a well wheel to shake the bucket up to carry water. Hao Jianshe said that he had also carried water for many years. At that time, there were two brigades in the village, one in the south of the village and the other in the north of the village. Each team had a horse house, and there was a well next to the horse house.
Go back further, almost every household has a well. Whoever builds a new house will first drill a well in the personal yard. In the 1970s and 1980s, when the water tower was just built, the pipe was not pulled under it, so two faucets were installed directly under the water tower. The villagers went to pick up the water with a bucket, and took it back and poured it into a large jar for later use. The well in front of the water tower is less than 100 meters deep. Hao Jianshe once brought water samples to the water conservancy department for testing. He was told that the well was in the underground fluorine layer and had the largest fluorine content. In the past, I had bad bone quality after eating such water for a long time and my teeth were all yellow. The elderly have more pain in their legs and their back pains, and they are most afraid of falling because they are prone to fractures when they fall. Therefore, the water must be changed, and later the yellow water was used. The pipes under the water tower were taken to every household back then, and the whole family paid 600 yuan and has been used until now.
Everyone has deep memories of 时时时时.
70-year-old Wei Jiangang said that when he was a child, there was water almost all year round. The water was not deep. Usually, the water was quite clear, but it was not very clear when the water came down from the upstream. There are fish in the water, and my friends often go into the water to play. There are many dams built in the river channel to store water and lure it out to irrigate the land. "The Shuishi River turned out to be an overground river. After becoming an underground river, the water inside can be used in the east and west ancient times, but the water inside cannot be used in the north ancient times because the terrain here is high and the water cannot be reached."
Hao Jianshe also has a deep impression of the Weishui River. "The water flows from east to west. As soon as we came, we took all our legs and caught fish in the river. The fish was not big, so we inserted the branches and took them home to eat." Hao Jianshe said that at that time, the river of Shuishi was basically flowing continuously, and there was water, and the reeds on both sides grew very tall. Walking straight to Xigu, a dam was built in the river.
How to use you to divert yellow water?
According to reports, there are 226 households in Beigu Village (plus the newly divided households, 267 households in total) and 847 people. There has been basically no change over the years. The most populous people in history was 887.
Hao Jianshe said that the current land area in the village is 2,648 mu, all of which are arable land; there are 17 deep wells and shallow wells, all of which are in use, mainly irrigated land. Now, the yellowing water channel has been built to the edge of the village, but the water has not been released yet. It is said that it can be used this year, but it has not been realized. A few days ago, the water conservancy department came over and said that it would seal the wells in the village. Hao Jianshe believes that sealing the well is OK, but the premise is to send the yellow water to the villagers to try it out.
"Villages plant pear trees, peach trees, apricot trees, and wheat and corn. They are not the time you want to water them, and when they can put the yellow water down." Hao Jianshe said that he once asked the water delivery manager how many times can he deliver water a year. He was told when the yellow water was released, which can meet the seasonal needs of planting wheat. After winter water, green water, and water replenishment, generally water is enough to water three times, and these three times can be guaranteed. "During drought, you have to water up to five times, while the yellow water can only be released up to four times."
"If the well is sealed and the yellow water is drawn down, the people will not be able to do it.Why? Because the peach tree blooms early, the peach fruit needs to be watered when it forms, but the peach tree cannot be watered at this time, which creates a contradiction. "Hao Jianshe said that if the peach tree is not watered at this time, the young fruits will not be able to expand; if the pear tree is watered at this time, there will be crack problems, and the pear tree must be watered for seven or eight water. Therefore, in his opinion, yellow water is only suitable for watering wheat and corn. Now, the water conservancy department has set up drip irrigation and sprinkler irrigation in the field (for planting sweet potatoes), and the yellow water cannot drip when it comes, because the silt content inside is large, which can easily block the eyes and the water cannot seep.
So, how should the yellow water be used? Hao Jianshe said that the village is now in the turbulent area There is a water outlet every 50 meters away from the yellow channel. He believes that the store wherever it reaches, it will "turn down the stove" - a very large water outlet, and there is no pool in front of it. If the water rushes in directly, the crops inside will definitely be impacted. Therefore, it is estimated that at that time, it will be impossible to plant 3 meters away from the canal.
"When I was studying at Yongji , the yellow channel was connected to the main channel, and there was a partition wherever it went, so that the water flow could be controlled in a targeted manner. "Hao Jianshe said that our village not only does not have partitions, but also does not have branch channels. Therefore, there are still some problems in the utilization of yellow water, and the facilities need to be further improved. What he is worried about is that if the facilities are not perfect, how should we water it after the yellow water is actually down? "Some villagers have suggested buying some ' dragon belt ' for irrigation, that is, temporary hoses. I don't know if that is possible."
people with crops are about to "break"
"Beigu Village's leading industry is mainly pears. The original varieties were only crispy pear , but now there are many varieties. In addition to crispy pear, there are also red crispy pear , July red, Danxia red, etc. "Hao Jianshe said that varieties must be diversified to have market competitiveness. There are many varieties, this one cannot do, and there is one.
He said that fortunately, the pear blossom in Beigu Village this year was not frozen, and the income is still the same. Frost weather has a characteristic, which is "low freezing but high freezing". The air flows to a high place and does not leave. I had been frozen for three years and the hail has been hit for one year, which has indeed caused great losses to the people. "In the year when the hail was falling, we were picking pears, and such a large bagged pear fell on the ground, and there was no way. At that time, no one collected the rotten pears, so the villagers could only throw them away. It was a pity."
When they came to Beigu Village for investigation, the villagers were busy picking pears, sorting and placing them into the warehouse.
" On August 15th, part of them can be sold. If you can't sell them, you must hurry to enter the cold storage, otherwise the wind will all fall to the ground. There are basically no young people in the village now. You can only find women to find pears. A woman can earn 18 yuan per hour for work, but she can always find people. Now there is a shortage of labor in rural areas and she can’t handle it. "Hao Jianshe said worriedly that the people who grow crops in the village are now all 60 or 70 years old, and young people are all working outside. "The kids have to go to school, and the family has expenses. How can you do it if you don't go out to make money? The total population of the whole village is more than 800, but the last time all people made nucleic acid, only more than 360 people”.
What impact does the shortage of labor have on the pear industry? Hao Jianshe said that the villagers’ work each year is mainly: spraying medicine, fertilizing and irrigating the land. If no one does it, they have to look for it from other villages. The car will pick it up and take it back and manage the food, and ask them to help them order flour, sprinkle pears, and bag it. No one will be idle. As this generation grows one after another, people who grow crops will be disconnected in the future. In the past two years, many young people have said, "I let you plant my land. , I don't want money." Sometimes when the pear price is high, they will try to manage the land by themselves, but after three years of freezing, they give up again.
investigated in Beigu Village, and we also saw a sharp drop in the groundwater level, and also learned about the problem of "who will go to farm in the future" and the problem of end connection of irrigation.
cannot be denied that under the background and hard requirements of water source replacement, the continuous irrigation of yellow water will inevitably enter every piece of field in the surrounding villages in the near future.In this preparation process, how to adapt to local conditions and implement policies according to villages, accurately implement the "last mile" work, and make people's livelihood projects truly win the hearts of the people, requires full consideration and meticulous work.
As for the confusion of the older generation of people "who will take over the farming process", we believe that this universal problem will definitely be solved by riding on the east wind of rural revitalization.
