The peach blossoms are scattered in all directions, and the peaches are pressed and drooping. Recently, the plateau peaches in Jiulong Village, Jiulong Town, ushered in a bumper harvest season. Walking into the planting base, the refreshing fruit fragrance came to the nostrils, and the ruddy color, huge and full plateau peaches hung on the branches, and the fruit farmers were busy picking, sorting, packing, and transporting...... It's a busy scene.
Ripe peaches are bright in color, the surface of the fruit is medium in hair, when ripe, the fruit surface is red or golden yellow, the flesh is golden yellow, take a bite, reveal the crystal clear flesh, the juice is overflowing, sweet but not greasy, and it makes people have an endless aftertaste.
According to the person in charge of the cooperative, the taste of the plateau peach that has just been picked is crisp, sweet and juicy, and after a day or two, it will become soft and the taste will become better. The plateau peach planting base is located in the Wanbaomin Village Group of the Jiulong Village Committee, established by the Luquan Pilot Planting Professional Cooperative, which was established in 2016 to operate fruit planting, Chinese herbal medicine planting, grain planting, vegetable planting and other related services such as production, sales, processing, transportation, storage and other related services of agricultural products. In 2018, 50 acres of plateau peaches (golden peaches) were selected to be planted, all of which were controlled by biological control and manual weeding, and were currently in the peak fruit period, with an average annual output of about 5,000 kg of first-class fruit (more than 180 grams), and the price was 30 yuan/kg.
While the harvest of Taoyuan has brought good economic benefits to the cooperative, it has also given full play to the demonstration role of linking agriculture with agriculture and strengthening agriculture, and has driven more than 20 local people to increase their employment and income. "When you are old, you definitely can't go out to work, so you can help pick fruits and weeds here, and you have a regular income every year, which is much easier than growing your own crops." Farmers working in cooperatives expressed their hope that the cooperative's peach industry will develop better and better, so that more farmers like him can work at the "doorstep" to increase their income.
In recent years, Jiulong Village, Jiulong Town, has vigorously promoted the adjustment of the agricultural industry structure, given full play to its geographical advantages, relied on the Luquan Pilot Planting Professional Cooperative, established the development model of "branch + cooperative + farmer", and built the "Plateau Peach" planting base.
In the next step, Jiulong Town will continue to integrate capital, technology, information, resources and other elements, work hard to optimize the industrial structure, fully combine the actual conditions of each village, support and expand characteristic industries according to local conditions, and effectively promote rural revitalization.
