Chapter 284： Summary meeting

Gastrodia elata is generally unearthed around the summer solstice, and then blooms and bears fruit.

In this season, digging Gastrodia elata is much easier, so at this time, mountain runners enter the mountain in groups with pockets on their backs and pickaxes.

For Xu Shiyan, he has no time to dig gastrodia elata in the mountains now.

He has a more important task, harvesting Gastrodia elata seeds to prepare for the next Gastrodia elata breeding.

The cost of using Gastrodia elata tubers to reproduce is still a bit high, not as good as seed propagation, and the cost is low.

Of course, the technical requirements are also more difficult, and you can overcome the experience slowly.

Some of the Gastrodia elata planted in spring in the old ginseng field have unearthed and bloomed. Pick five to ten flower buds from the top of the inflorescence to reduce nutrient consumption.

Gastrodia Gastrodia in the wild, there will be insect pollination, supplemented by artificial pollination.

After more than 20 days, the fruit is ripe and should be harvested and stored early.

Put the harvested Gastrodia elata seeds into the seeding tube, sprinkle them on the leaves mixed with the germination bacteria of small mushrooms, and mix them well.

Afterwards, the fungus leaves are buried in the fungal bed with fungal materials according to certain specifications.

Gastrodia elata seeds germinate and will grow into rice hemp. When the rice hemp grows to a certain extent, it can be transplanted, and after another year or two, it can be picked up and made into goods.

Although this method of reproduction is cumbersome, the cost is relatively low, and there is no need to buy gastrodia cubs every year.

"During this period of time, our work has been done well.

Next, I have to be busy. "

The development of Gastrodia elata and Asarum is just a sideline business, and the main business is ginseng cultivation and processing.

So we should distinguish between primary and secondary, and we can’t mess it up.

"We bought tractors and rotary cultivators this year. The soil planing does not require manual labor and can be mechanized, but the requirements are higher.

In our group, some people who scored points went up the mountain and were responsible for instructing the machines to plow, rake and ridge.

One thing must be remembered, the tractor wheels must run strictly along the stringing line and within the scope of the work path, and are not allowed to cross the surface of the pool. "

One participant has a lot of money and wealth. This spring, he bought four Dongfanghong tractors, as well as rotary tillers and brush cutters.

It is expected that the ginseng soil this autumn can complete mechanized operations, and manual labor is only used as an auxiliary. This can greatly save manpower, but it also has some drawbacks.

One is that mechanical plowing is not as meticulous as manual plowing, and the other is that when the tractor is working, ginseng will rot where it is crushed by the wheels.

No one can explain this problem clearly, but as long as it is a tractor road, it will be rotten.

In order to prevent this problem, Xu Shiyan specifically discussed with Secretary Lin to reduce the number of access roads, that is, the horse trails, to ensure that the tractor roads are just on the work roads.

Reducing the width of the working road is not only to cooperate with mechanical plowing, but more importantly, it is to make rational use of the land.

The current ginseng operation roads are relatively wide, and some horse roads are even wider than the pool surface. This is actually unreasonable and cannot achieve the effective utilization of the land.

The bridle path is just called a bridle path, but it doesn’t mean that horses can run away. In fact, the width of the bridle path can be as long as one person can pass smoothly with a watering can on his back.

Waiting for another 20 years, when the ginseng soil costs tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars per hectare, even those who want to narrow the road will have trouble getting through it.

Now one hectare of land can produce 700 feet of ginseng, and in the future, one hectare can produce 1,200 feet, all of which is money.

The land that can be used to grow ginseng will only become less and less. If we don’t pay attention to rational use now, when there is no land to use in the future, the ginseng industry will also die.

For this purpose, Xu Shiyan also specially wrote an article, "Shrinking Operation Roads and Improving Land Utilization Efficiency".

This article was published in the journal of Fusong Ginseng Society some time ago, which aroused many discussions.

The leaders of the county also attach great importance to it, and specially convened a meeting with the leaders of participating venues and communes to discuss it, and it may be implemented in the whole county in the future.

"Understood, team leader, we must strictly follow the operation requirements, watch the tractors work, and never make mistakes." Han Limin and the others nodded in response.

"Well, participating in the land is one aspect, and the other is this year's participation in labor."

"It's almost time to pick up the goods again. On the processing plant side, the equipment needs to be overhauled in advance, and new processes need to be developed. We have more important things to do."

"At the other end of the comprehensive factory, the ginseng flower drink dew was successfully developed, and at the Guangzhou Flower City, the soda water factory that cooperated with us has also begun to put into production.

We can't relax, we have to continue to work hard, Ginseng Coke, there are still technical problems to be solved.

cheer up and not relax. "

Ginseng flower dew is a project that Xu Shiyan had already started researching before he came to participate.

The ginseng flower dew cola was proposed by Xu Shiyan on the basis of ginseng flower dew.

He discussed with Secretary Lin that it would be better to build the factory locally instead of just providing raw materials.

Fusong has beautiful mountains and rivers, and so many mineral water brands in later generations have built factories here.

If you don’t take advantage of such a good resource, what’s the point of just providing raw materials for others?

“Our research on human participation this year mainly starts from two aspects.

One is to develop ginseng instant honey slices. If this is done, it is almost like a snack. You can take it out and eat a slice anytime, anywhere.

For people in our country, it is still too extravagant.

But for foreign countries, especially South Korea and Dongyi, they prefer to eat ginseng products, and this method is more acceptable. "

Based on the current equipment and processing level of the processing plant, deeper processing is still not possible.

The craft of this instant honey slice is not particularly complicated, slice it and marinate it with good honey.

It can be made into cans, preferably individually packaged in single-piece plastic packaging. For small snacks, one piece is packaged, and you can open and eat at any time.

Ginseng, medicinal and edible.

Needless to say, medicinal uses, such as Ginseng Reconstituted Pills, Ginseng Dabu Pills, Ginseng Jianpi Pills, etc., can all be used.

People abroad can also extract ginsenosides, ginsenosides and other components for use.

Ordinary eating methods, most of which are stewing chicken soup, making tea, cooking porridge, etc. It should be said that it is quite troublesome.

This kind of instant honey chips is eaten as a snack, and you can eat it anytime, anywhere, just open a pack.

Made with high-quality honey, it removes the anger of ginseng, nourishes yin and moistens dryness, and replenishes vitality.

Relatively speaking, it is more popular with some young people, especially those white-collar workers who are busy with work.

Xu Shiyan made such an introduction, and the technical team were all dumbfounded. No one thought that there could be such a method.

"Team leader, your method is good, but the ginseng we produce is directly taken away by the provincial medicinal materials company.

In this case, the medicinal material company has no procurement plan. "Someone next to him raised an objection.

Xu Shiyan smiled, "Do you think that with the current momentum of ginseng development in our county, if the output doubles in two or three years, the provincial medicinal materials company will still have the ability to buy them all?

If they can't buy them all, where will the ginseng we cultivated so hard be sold? "

A few words made the faces of the people below turn pale with fright.

"Impossible? Ginseng has always been purchased and sold in a unified manner. Can the province not buy it?

Then if the province can’t collect so much, what can we do? "

In the era of planned economy, ginseng management implements the policy of unified planning, unified production, unified purchase and unified sales.

The ginseng produced in Fusong is purchased by the provincial medicinal materials company and the provincial medicine and health products import and export company.

But with the implementation of the household contract responsibility system, the ginseng industry in various places is booming.

By 1989, the higher authorities issued a document, except for the acquisition of the above two companies in accordance with the previously signed five-year purchase and sale contract, the rest of the acquisitions were organized by the county itself.

At that time, the production of ginseng increased rapidly, and the county was simply unable to fully purchase it, which led to a large backlog of ginseng.

Despite many positive measures taken by governments at all levels, the situation has not been saved.

Starting from 1990, the price of ginseng plummeted, and fell to the bottom in 1992. Since then, the ginseng market has been in a slump.

But now, the situation has changed.

Because of the ginseng field fertilizer, the era of large-scale increase in ginseng production is coming.

Then, does the provincial medicinal material company and health care product company still have the ability to buy them in full? It may be able to persist for a few years, but the future prospects are still not optimistic.

Chinese people have a bad habit of following the trend. As long as they see other people making money by doing something, it will cause a lot of people to flock in.

The same is true for the ginseng industry. In recent years, ginseng production has increased, and the income of ginseng farmers has increased, followed by large-scale expansion of ginseng households in various places.

Not to mention the original participation of each commune and team, each enterprise or institution either approves its own participation, or organizes participation with the forest farms under the Forestry Bureau.

Even elementary schools, supply and marketing cooperatives and other units, as long as they have some money to invest, they will invest in it.

The blind expansion of ginseng planting area resulted in a sharp drop in the price of ginseng.

No one buys the ginseng grown, and the ginseng farmers lower the prices of each other in order to reduce losses.

So in the spring of this year, when the county held a commendation meeting, Xu Shiyan proposed that the relevant departments should strictly control the area of ​​ginseng planting and not blindly expand it.

However, his remarks were opposed by many people.

Many people think that Xu Shiyan has a formal job now, and he has forgotten his roots after leaving the agricultural team.

Regardless of the overall situation, they want to restrict the development of others and hinder the county's economic take-off.

This is speaking for the state-run participants, wanting to monopolize the market, anyway, they have everything.

Some people who opposed it almost canceled Xu Shiyan's personal awards.

Thanks to the support of Secretary Guan, Xu Shiyan was not punished.

After Xu Shiyan came back, he discussed this issue with Secretary Lin, and Secretary Lin agreed with Xu Shiyan.

In any field, blind expansion will only lead to greater crises.

Therefore, one participant must be at the forefront, and cannot wait until the crisis comes to find a way to break the situation, then it will be too late.

"The state-run first participating venue, the oldest among the four participating venues in the county, can be regarded as the big brother.

Therefore, a participant must play a leading role. As a technical research department of a participant, we must take the lead and produce high-quality products, and must not be looked down upon by outsiders.

The product is out. As for the sales, we don’t need to worry about it. Secretary Lin and the county management secretary will consider it.

What we have to do is to tackle key technical problems and make products with the highest value, the highest profit, and the products that customers most want to buy. This is our task. "
