"From July 18th to the present, the drought resistance has been continuously carried out for more than 40 days, and the skin has become dark. Bao Gong has lost more than 10 kilograms of weight. The guests are all feeling distressed." Wang Guilin, a large grain grower in Yongfeng Street, Shuangfeng County, where Mishui River is drought-resistant, took out a stack of power supply company payment slips and shopping lists for Yongfeng Mechanical and Electrical Market, and "resented" to the cadres of the agricultural technology station of the street office who came to check the drought resistance work: "Due to the continuous drought, Mishui River stopped flowing on August 16th. In desperation, he had to ask for help from the street office and received support from the leaders. The next day, he notified me to go to the street office to collect a 7.5-kilowatt and a 5.5-kilowatt three-phase water pump, and reinstalled two fixed power discharges. The farthest late rice from this Mishui River to Tongde Village is 2.6 kilometers, and water needs to be taken. I poured into the dry river dam in the ridge, and then lifted it up one by one. After lifting the water at level 6, I pumped it into the rice fields at the top.
Tongde Village and Shizipu two villages planted 700 acres of double-season rice and more than 1,000 acres of single-season rice. I didn’t expect that this year’s high temperature and drought have been caught off guard. In order to resist drought, I took the initiative to borrow more than 100,000 yuan from relatives and friends, and added more than 10,000 yuan in small water pumps with more than 4,000 meters of water pipes, wires and accessories. The electricity bill alone was paid more than 20,000 yuan. "
Wang Guilin, 40 years old, has Zoumajie Town, the county is a famous "mushroom king". In 2019, he entered the food industry and set his sights on Yongfeng Street in the neighboring town. In March of the same year, he signed a land transfer contract of more than 1,900 acres with more than 700 farmers in Tongde Village and Shizipu Village respectively, and all of them were planted this year. "This is only part of his farming. Mr. Wang is brave and motivated. He has his grain industry everywhere in Zouma Street and Jinkai Street, with a planting area of more than 5,800 acres, which has contributed to the county's grain production." Zhu Youjin, member of the Party Committee of Yongfeng Street, expressed his satisfaction and appreciation to Wang Guilin.
"At 2 noon on August 21, the sun was shining and hot, at least 39 degrees high temperatures. The 7.5-kilowatt motor that had been used for several years suddenly couldn't pump up the water. Luo Yongming was so anxious that he hurriedly borrowed a 20-kilowatt motor and a 400-meter-long water pipe from the County Water Conservancy Bureau. With the help of the Water Conservancy Bureau staff, after four hours of hard work, he finally got the water again. The 130 acres of rice in a season were flooded with two more times, and the harvest was guaranteed." A retired party member of Yanwan Village on the banks of the Meishui River, 73-year-old Peng Yingyao praised Luo Yongming.
Luo Yongming is a large grain grower in Yongfeng Street. His grain production is spread across more than 20 villages in two streets, Yongfeng, Jinkai and Yintang. The planting area is 3,488 mu, of which 1,880 mu of double-season rice, and the remaining are medium rice and first-season rice. The drought and high temperature continued in July this year, which had a serious impact on grain production. In order to reduce the losses caused by drought, Luo Yongming settled his home by the fields, ponds, and rivers. The channels became the main battlefield for drought resistance and irrigation. He pumped water day and night with his wife to resist drought, and did not go down the line for more than 40 days. The couple was exhausted and overwhelmed.
"This year is the longest drought in history, and I am also ready to fight a protracted war against drought." Luo Yongming spread his hands: "For this drought, he borrowed more than 200,000 yuan from his relatives and purchased 25 large and small water pumps, more than 8,000 meters of wires, 15,000 meters of water pipes, and meters and irrigation equipment, among which electricity bills and labor expenditures reached more than 100,000 yuan. In mid-August, more than 50 acres of paddy fields in Yangjing Village were short of electricity, only Haocong County Agricultural Machinery and Mechanical Market, it cost more than 10,000 yuan to ask someone to buy a complete set of new diesel engine equipment from other places. At present, rice near the two rivers, Meishui and Mishui, has water to irrigate in the river, and there is no big problem. Other areas have tried every means to resist drought and protect seedlings and minimize drought losses. "
In recent years, the Party Working Committee and Office of Yongfeng Street have put grain production first, as a project for the heart of the people, and have introduced a reward mechanism to encourage farmers to grow a variety of fields and plant good fields. According to statistics, 7 large grain growers with more than 500 mu and more than 100 households with more than 100 mu have given birth to large grain growers, accounting for more than 70% of the grain growing area in the entire street, supporting the "most of the country" of grain production, and making great contributions to winning a bumper harvest of grain production.
