Yingshan, Sichuan: Combining planting and breeding to create a new path

Recently, in the citrus orchard of Sichuan Zhongkun Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. located in Datian Village, Xindian Town, Yingshan County, Nanchong City, Sichuan Province, clear yellow pomegranates were hanging on the branches, and the citrus picking work was progressing in an orderly manner. Villagers either shuttle through the forest to pick fruits, or carry fruit baskets to the roadside, also known as heavy-duty trucks, creating a busy scene of harvest on site.

The company has transferred more than 600 acres of land, mainly for planting citrus. Currently, there are few seasonal citrus varieties, and the rake and rake citrus just fills the market gap, making the market very popular. "Luo Xiaoping, the person in charge of Sichuan Zhongkun Agricultural Development Co., Ltd., introduced that this year's rake and rake citrus is expected to produce more than 500000 kilograms, with a stable output value of over 1 million yuan and considerable benefits.

The author tasted it on site and found that the roasted citrus flesh is delicate, sweet, and melts in the mouth. Luo Xiaoping said the secret: the company has transferred more than 300 mu of fish ponds to breed the four famous domestic fishes and turtles. Every year during pond cleaning, the effluent from the fish pond is purified and pumped into the orchard through a "water fertilizer integration" system. The organic matter in the water and fish and turtle feces become natural fertilizers, resulting in better quality citrus fruits.

Fish pond silt is also a treasure, "said Luo Xiaoping. The silt is transported to the orchard as organic fertilizer, which is more effective; The wild grass growing on the silt can be harvested and used as fish feed to achieve resource recycling.

In the past, dealing with fish pond mud and water was worrying, but now with citrus orchards as a carrier for consumption, mud and water can be turned into treasure, reducing planting costs, improving fruit quality, and solving environmental pollution problems, "Luo Xiaoping said frankly.

Sichuan Zhongkun Agriculture is a comprehensive enterprise that integrates planting and breeding, exploring a green ecological development path and providing replicable experience for the county's planting and breeding cycle and comprehensive utilization. We will actively build platforms, promote cooperation, and enable more enterprises to achieve cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and win-win cooperation, "said the person in charge of Yingshan County Agriculture and Rural Bureau.
