For rural revitalization, industry is the key, and talent is the support. In recent years, Meicuntou Village, Juxi Town, Liancheng County, based on the actual situation of the village, has deeply excavated and utilized the advantages of resources, continuously explored the road of rural industry revitalization, and introduced ecological scientific research teams to inject new vitality into the development of the village.
Walking into the village, the courtyard is scattered, and the gurgling water meanders down, and a picture of the pastoral scenery comes into view. Qin Guoxin graduated from Southwest University as a doctoral student, and is now a professional master's tutor of Southwest University. The main production area of mainland coffee is in Yunnan, and other southern provinces have only sporadic cultivation. Meicuntou Village is located in the hinterland of Meihua Mountain, with a wide area of high mountains and an average altitude of more than 800 meters, and has unique geographical conditions for coffee planting.
"From an ecological point of view, Meicuntou far exceeded my expectations, I didn't expect Fujian to have such a good ecology. There is very little chemical pollution here, and the first thing we feel when we go to the village is that the village is very clean, and the forest coverage rate here is more than 90%, and the air here, the water is good, and the drinking water is mountain spring water, which is very rare. Qin Guoxin, general manager of Chongqing Yuanbang Agricultural Development Co., Ltd., said.
Coffee has a long input-output time, taking two to three years to bear fruit. But Qin Guoxin is very confident in this, and he hopes to give full play to his professional advantages to establish the first specialty coffee production base in Fujian Province in Meicuntou.
"Because the initial development area is very small, the quality of production is particularly good, mainly for some high-end members, the next step is to continue to promote to other natural villages or surrounding villages under the condition of full technical monitoring, expand the scale to increase production, and take the conventional specialty coffee route." Qin Guoxin introduced.
The original ecology is an innovative concept that runs through the whole process of Meicuntou specialty coffee from planting, picking, processing, roasting to brewing, by extending the coffee industry chain, enhancing the added value of specialty coffee, and embarking on an agricultural road that adapts measures to local conditions and has full development potential, so as to realize the "two-way running" of ecological and economic benefits.
"In the next step, we will do a good job in the combination of agriculture, culture and tourism, promote the integrated development of primary, secondary and tertiary industries, and gradually do the whole industrial chain of specialty coffee, plan to plant coffee on the edge of the campsite, and open a rural café and coffee art village when the conditions are ripe, combined with our forest hiking, forest health care, and Chinese herbal medicine planting under the forest, so as to attract citizens to the countryside, capital to go to the countryside to start a business, and gradually develop the countryside." Fan Hanquan, secretary of the Party branch of Meicuntou Village, Juxi Town, Liancheng County, said.
