Nowadays, more than 7000 mu of sweet and crisp peas in Wengdu Town, Changning County, Yunnan Province have entered the harvest period. People can be seen everywhere in the field. It is a scene of bumper harvest. Sweet and crisp peas have become an emerging industry for enriching the people in the winter agricultural development of Wengdu town.
Although it is winter and the vegetation is withered and yellow, when you enter yangwangtian village, Wengdu Town, the land after the implementation of slope to ladder is full of green. Zhao Jinlan and her husband are busy picking peas in the bean field and selling them at a good price in the market. “My family has planted 6 mu of peas this year, and the benefit is still relatively good this year. Now the income is more than 10000 yuan. Originally, this land of my family was used to grow grain, and the grain was barren after planting. Now it is used to grow tobacco after changing slope to ladder, and the tobacco is used to grow beans again. The benefit of planting beans is quite good.” Zhao Jinlan said while picking beans.
Because of the early planting, Zhao Jinlan’s peas have been picked for the fourth wave. The early price is better and the income is more than 10000 yuan. According to the growth trend of beans, you can also pick four waves. Wengdu is a mountainous town with high mountains and steep slopes. In order to improve the land utilization rate and improve the level of mechanized farming, Wengdu town vigorously implements high-standard farmland construction projects, supporting roads, water conservancy and other infrastructure construction, so as to turn the sloping land into terraced fields and the barren mountains into green. Zhao Jinlan is the beneficiary of the slope to ladder project. The income from planting flue-cured tobacco in the early stage is more than 14000 yuan, and the income from sweet and crisp peas is expected to be 20000 yuan. If the slope to ladder project had not been implemented in previous years, Zhao Jinlan’s land would not be able to grow crops in winter.
Red bayberry from Wengdu community, Wengdu Town, is optimistic about land resources and market prospects. It rented 60 mu of high-standard farmland in yangwangtian village and planted sweet and crisp peas. “At present, the market situation of sweet and crisp peas is still relatively good. At present, the income is about 70000 yuan. After picking, the estimated income is about 200000 yuan.” Yang Mei said.
In warm and cool mountainous areas, water cooling and grass wither in winter. In addition to planting wheat, broad beans and other spring crops, most people choose to go to towns in hot areas to help pick winter early vegetables. In order to promote the continuous and stable increase of people’s income, Weng Du adjusted measures to local conditions and guided the people to develop the sweet and crisp pea planting industry by means of experimental demonstration planting. “Sweet and crisp peas in Wengdu town have been introduced for about eight years. After planting, the economic income is still relatively acceptable, which is gradually accepted by farmers, and the area increases year by year. So far, the planting scale of sweet and crisp peas in the whole town has reached about 7000 mu, the output of fresh beans per mu is 800-1000 kg, the average unit price is 4-5 yuan per kg, and the average benefit per mu is basically 3000 yuan To 4000 yuan, planting sweet and crisp peas in the whole town can increase farmers’ income by more than 16 million yuan. “ Wengdu Town Agricultural Comprehensive Service Center Technician Yang Ze introduced. At present, sweet and crisp peas are planted by the masses in seven village communities in Wengdu town. Sweet and crisp peas have become an emerging industry for enriching the people in winter agricultural development in Wengdu town. In the implementation of the Rural Revitalization Strategy, Wengdu town will develop and consolidate the sweet and crisp pea industry around the general requirements of “industrial prosperity”, so as to promote rural revitalization with industrial revitalization.
