Characteristic industry

Xiaotang township is an important agricultural town in the northeast of Yichun. There are 19 Village (neighborhood) committees and 201 village groups in Xiaotang Township, with a total population of more than 50000 and cultivated land of 44000 mu, covering a total area of 88 square kilometers. Xiaotang township has a tradition of planting rice and vegetables, especially vegetables, which are famous for their high yield and high quality. Cowpea seeds occupy a large market in the south, forming a pattern of "Liaoning Xinmin in the north and Jiangxi Xiaotang in the South". With the continuous development of the market economy, the agricultural products of Xiaotang town once appeared the phenomenon of "difficult to sell". It guided the farmers to organize production and processing according to the market demand, made efforts to improve the product quality and enhance the market competitiveness, effectively promoted the smooth flow of local vegetable products, and farmers also obtained higher economic benefits. Xiaotang township has a total cowpea planting area of 25000 mu, pepper, cucumber, eggplant and other vegetables planting area of more than 5000 mu, only vegetables, farmers' annual per capita income of more than 200 yuan, according to statistics, 46% of farmers' net income in Xiaotang Township comes from vegetables. Xiaotang Township vegetable production Federation was established in early 2002. Its purpose is to focus on the goal of increasing agricultural production and farmers' income, actively guide and organize farmers to carry out specialized, large-scale and pollution-free production according to market demand by means of information exchange and resource complementarity, strive to open up the market, promote the processing and sales of agricultural products, and coordinate members to establish leading enterprises and distribution of agricultural products The center boldly explores and cultivates the modern agricultural products logistics system, so as to make contributions in adjusting the industrial structure of farmers in Xiaotang Township, exploring and solving the problem of difficult selling of agricultural products, orderly entering the city of agricultural products, and opening up the markets inside and outside the province. in production, the first is to guide farmers to promote new technologies and new varieties. The Federation has formulated a detailed training plan to strengthen the technical training for farmers, so that farmers can master the latest cultivation and pest control points. In 2005, four training courses were held. Through different forms, more than 16000 people were trained and 12 scientific and technological materials were printed and distributed. Taking advantage of Xiaotang cowpea Research Institute, Wanxin seed industry company and other member units, more than 10 high-quality cowpea varieties have been introduced from Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Jiangxi Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and advanced technologies such as film seedling raising, greenhouse planting and high-yield models and cultivation techniques such as "early spring" and "after seedling raising" have been vigorously promoted, greatly improving the quality and scientific and technological content of vegetables. Second, we should guide farmers to do a good job in disease prevention and pest control, use harmless chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and declare pollution-free products. The third is to guide farmers to carry out large-scale cultivation and establish vegetable production bases. Since its establishment, the Federation has been promoting the scale operation of vegetable industry on the premise of vegetable farmers' willingness. The vegetable planting area in Xiaotang township has reached more than 30000 mu, accounting for nearly 70% of the total cultivated land. Of course, the association does not blindly require farmers to expand the planting area by "planting eggplant, cucumber and pepper in the East and in the west", but to establish planting bases according to the soil quality of cultivated land and traffic location, so as to avoid the phenomenon of "scale diseconomy". in the process, the first is to guide farmers to build storage pits and make cowpeas. Encourage and assist vegetable farmers to build large storage pits, make cowpeas, change the original form of vegetables, delay sales, not only stagger the time of centralized marketing of vegetables, but also increase the added value of vegetables. Xiaotang township has built 3200 large and small storage pits with a capacity of 150000 cubic meters. The second is to guide farmers to make fresh cowpeas into dried beans, and set up 21 vegetable processing enterprises with "Sanwang" vegetable processing plant as the leader to make fresh cowpeas into dried beans, so as to promote the deep processing of products. in the sales sector, the Federation will try its best to set up an information network. Second, we should vigorously rectify the market order. Before the establishment of the Federation, due to the lack of orderly management and vicious competition, there was once a phenomenon of "pitching farmers to harm farmers" and "pitching merchants to harm merchants". In accordance with the articles of association, the market order has been effectively rectified, and fair trade and reputation trade have been achieved. The good reputation environment has attracted a lot of dealers from surrounding villages and towns, Changsha, Nanchang, Anhui, Guangdong and other places, realizing the "win-win" of vegetable farmers and foreign investors. Third, strive to open up the market. According to the local sales situation, the circulation Federation has set up a special marketing team to explore the markets inside and outside the province. It has set up marketing windows and sales points in Shanghai, Fujian, Guangdong, Hubei and other places, and formed a fixed sales network of fresh and processed cowpea vegetables. The sales volume of the markets outside the province has increased by more than 20% every year, and the Federation has promoted more than 60000 tons of vegetable products for farmers To achieve a sales output value of 56 million yuan, farmers say: to work with the Federation is like wearing a seat belt.
