“Industry is the foundation of development. Only when the industry is prosperous can the income of villagers grow steadily. We must persist in adapting measures to local conditions and village-specific policies, planting when appropriate, nourishing when appropriate, and forest when appropriate, so as to implement industrial development to increase farmers’ income.” On July 15, 2019, when General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected Inner Mongolia and guided an educational speech on the theme of “Don’t forget the original intention, keep the mission in mind”, he put forward ardent hopes and requirements for industrial development and stable income increase.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Yanjin County, Yunnan Province has made full use of its resource advantages, relying on the development of characteristic industries, taking the leadership of party building as the starting point, gathering strength, cleverly playing the green economy “card”, and vigorously developing 13,600 acres of sericulture. industry, leading the masses on the road to increasing income and becoming rich.
When you walk into Baoning Village, Xinglong Township, Yanjin County, you will see endless fertile fields and greenery as far as the eye can see. Large and small mulberry garden bases are embedded in the ethereal and beautiful landscape. The mulberry leaves planted in succession are lush and lush, dyeing the fields and hills green. Covered in green shade, mulberry trees line up in rows, and the fresh air is filled with the charming fragrance of mulberry; each family of silkworm farmers is picking mulberries, taking cocoons, or pruning branches, forming a green picture of the harmonious coexistence of man and nature. No one would have imagined that many years ago this was a barren mountain with no decent industries and the people’s living conditions were very difficult.
In the home of silkworm farmer Yang Daihua, the snow-white cocoons are particularly eye-catching. The fat and white silkworm babies are eating mulberry leaves with relish. Yang Daihua’s face is full of smiles. Ten years ago, Yang Daihua’s family had to work abroad all year round, and their income was very unstable. By chance, Yang Daihua came into contact with growing mulberry and raising silkworms. With the village’s unique natural conditions, he could increase his income at his doorstep, and his motivation suddenly increased. Yang Daihua told reporters that he and his wife planted more than 10 acres of sericulture at home and could raise silkworms for five seasons a year. Silkworms can produce more than 100 kilograms of cocoons each season, and the economic income is about 5,000 yuan. In a year, there is an income of tens of thousands of yuan.
“I have been raising silkworms for several years. My silkworms can produce about 110 kilograms of cocoons in one season. I can raise silkworms for five seasons a year, producing more than 500 kilograms of cocoons, and my income is 30,000 yuan. With money around, next I want to expand the Sangyuan base, raise more silkworms, and increase income.” Yang Daihua said with confidence.
Although Baoning Village has a tradition of developing sericulture industry many years ago, due to its weak foundation and shortage of capital and technology, it has not formed a large-scale, scientific, and standardized development pattern. The degree of organizational development of the industry is still low. In a small and scattered state, the economic benefits are not outstanding and the enthusiasm of the masses is not high. The desolate and barren land makes people wander. The long history of sericulture is intertwined with the reality of poverty. Because the price of cocoons sometimes rises and sometimes falls, mulberry planting is destroyed again, destroyed and replanted, over and over… But the people of Boryeong, unwilling to lag behind, launched “breakthroughs” from poverty again and again.
In the prosperous times, farming was encouraged, and sericulture was better than plowing. How to make sericulture, a traditional advantageous industry, further grow bigger and stronger and produce better economic benefits? Baoning Village adopts the leadership of “ten party members, ten companies and ten farmers in the branch” and talented people to establish a development model of professional cooperatives, lead the masses to plant mulberry and raise sericulture, and promote the development of the sericulture industry.
“After the common people’s cocoons are raised, our cooperative recycles them in the form of primary processing and then sells them to Zhejiang and Guangxi, so that the common people’s income is guaranteed and everyone develops together.” Yanjin Changjin Sericulture Professional Cooperative The person in charge, Su Changju, said this.
At Yanjin Hongfeng Sericulture Professional Cooperative, the person in charge, Huang Youcong, is making handmade silk quilts. He said that the professional cooperative was established in 2010 and is mainly engaged in the processing of pure handmade silk cotton and machine-made silk cotton. It purchases silkworm cocoons from the masses and processes them into silk quilts, which greatly improves economic benefits and doubles the income of the masses.
“The task of our professional cooperative is to purchase silkworm cocoons from the masses and then process them manually. The products are mainly sold to Jiangxi, Hunan, Sichuan and other places, and the annual income is basically around hundreds of thousands of yuan.” Huang Youcong, head of Yanjin Hongfeng Sericulture Professional Cooperative, introduced.
Consolidate the industrial foundation and achieve scale expansion. Based on village conditions, Baoning Village seizes opportunities and effectively transforms the development model from food production to sericulture, highlighting the characteristics of one village and one product in sericulture. Through the three-in-one model of large-scale planting, standardized management, and industrialized operation, Baoning Village has achieved sericulture. The development goals of the industry from small to large and from weak to strong.
The booming development of the sericulture industry has allowed the people in Baoning Village to taste the “sweetness” of increasing their income and becoming rich. Every household grows mulberry and raises sericulture, achieving full coverage of the sericulture industry. At present, the sericulture industry in Baoning Village has developed to 6,500 acres, with an output value of more than 40 million yuan. The per capita income of sericulture farmers can increase by more than 3,000 yuan.
The development of the sericulture industry in Baoning Village is a microcosm of Yanjin County’s use of resource advantages to develop characteristic agricultural industries according to local conditions and increase people’s income. In addition to vigorously developing the sericulture industry in Baoning Village, Yanjin County has also fully mobilized the masses to plant mulberry and raise sericulture in Datian, Fenghuang, and Xinglong Villages in Xinglong Township. After nearly ten years of development, the sericulture industry in Yanjin County is no longer small, scattered and chaotic in the past, but has become aA new way of organized, large-scale and scientific development. Today, the county has developed 13,600 acres of sericulture, achieving an output value of more than 80 million yuan. The per capita income of sericulture farmers can increase by about 3,500 yuan. The hard-working and courageous people of Yanjin have realized their dream of getting rich by raising sericulture with their hard work, and have written one hymn after another for the prosperity of sericulture and sericulture!
“Over the years, we have been planting mulberry and raising silkworms, and the barren hills in the past have turned into green slopes, which has given us real benefits. In the past, even eating was a problem, but now our family has built a small Western-style building, and we even bought a small house last year. Having a car is something that was unimaginable more than ten years ago!” Deng Wanhua, a villager in Datian Village, said excitedly.
In the next step, Yanjin County will continue to pursue the goal of “taking the lead in party building to promote development, and strengthening characteristic industries to help increase income”, expand the scale of the sericulture industry, extend the industrial chain, and establish a more stable interest linkage mechanism to make the sericulture industry truly a A green industry that increases people’s income and makes them rich.
