First, dress up the earth and interpret history.
In midsummer, the sky is blue and the sun is shining. Those flowers that strive for spring gradually wither with the pace of warm spring, but the flowers of potatoes in the crops in northeast Yunnan of Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau bloom in time. At noon in the scorching sun, simple flowers are blooming on the green stems and leaves of rows of potatoes, and white, yellow and purple flowers are blooming on the fields of dams and hills. In the hot summer, the potato field is no longer a single yellow land from a distance, but a sea of flowers as beautiful as a fairy tale. These flower seas dress up the plateau land in a unified way, adding a beautiful scenery to the green mountains and green spaces. Walking into this landscape, I breathed the rich fragrance of potatoes, looked at the rolling mountains in the distance, looked at the blue sky and imagined the scene of fruit harvest. At this moment, my mood is quiet and comfortable, and the festive pictures of crisp autumn and a bumper harvest are constantly emerging in my mind.
In the long history of mankind, potatoes contain and interpret profound historical farming culture. Potato, the scientific name of millet, also known as potato, potato and so on. , is not only the main crop and food in some alpine areas, but also has many medicinal values in medicinal efficacy. According to historical records, potatoes originated in Peru and Chile in the Andes of South America. /kloc-In the middle of the 6th century, potatoes were brought to Europe, and people appreciated its beautiful flowers and used them as decorations. 1650, potato became the main crop in Ireland and began to spread in Europe. But because potatoes grow underground, they are regarded as ominous by nobles. From 65438 to 0975, there was a large-scale famine in France. As a life-saving food during the famine in Paris, potatoes eased the famine crisis to some extent. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, potatoes spread to China. Because they are suitable for growing in alpine areas, they are widely planted in southwest, northwest, Inner Mongolia and northeast China. Potato has gradually become one of the five staple foods in China and the third largest food crop in the world after wheat and corn. With high nutritional value, strong adaptability and large yield, potato has gradually become the main food for the poor and played an important role in promoting economic and social development and maintaining population growth.
Second, the power of potatoes helps me grow.
Since childhood, potatoes and I have forged a complex that is inextricably linked and difficult to give up. In the childhood of material shortage, for an ordinary rural family, lack of clothes and oil is the normal life. In poor hometown and mountainous land, potato is the highest yield food crop, which bears the simple mission and important responsibility of filling the stomach. The bitterness and sweetness of potatoes are always hidden in the deepest corner of my heart. There are many sisters in my family, and many people in my family live on barren land. In addition to the traditional cultivation method of slash and burn, the output of rural agricultural food crops is very small, and most of my childhood was spent in the struggle against hunger.
Potatoes sustain life and embody inspiring power. In the memory of my childhood, potatoes left a deep impression in my heart. It was a simple and bitter childhood. Potatoes, as one of the few staple foods, selflessly moistened my childhood and inspired me to walk out of the mountains, successfully complete my studies and go to work. As far as I can remember, the primary school in the village is far from home. Every cold winter, thick snow and ice cover the rugged country road between home and school. Going out early and returning late during school became two points and one line. Small but fragrant potatoes became the only food to fill my stomach after school at noon. Day after day, year after year, potatoes accompanied me through six cold winters, which I will never forget until I graduated from primary school. Since then, potatoes, as "life-saving food" in life, have formed a deep friendship complex with me. This unforgettable complex accompanied me through my childhood and youth until middle age. ...
Rural people in rural areas are simple. Their father works at sunrise and rests at sunset. Many times, the sunset never stops. All the year round, they work hard with their backs on the loess, but they can only barely maintain food and clothing for the whole family. My hometown is cold and humid. In case of frequent natural disasters, crops such as corn and wheat usually fail, and potatoes have strong vitality. Even if it is attacked by severe natural disasters such as hail and snowstorm, there will still be some gains. In addition, the cost of potato planting in my hometown is low, the investment is low, and the yield is high, which invisibly bears the simple mission and important responsibility of nourishing life and continuing future generations.
Third, potato culture catering food.
Potatoes are not outstanding in appearance, but simple in appearance. Historically, potatoes have long been discriminated against by human beings because they grow underground and look ugly. Some western aristocrats even regard potatoes as ominous things and only regard them as food for the poor and animals living in the lower classes. In fact, this is a serious cognitive prejudice. There is a poem that describes potatoes like this: "Wang Baojie's roots are full of mud and essence, and vegetables and vegetables are good;" Simple and forbearing loneliness, gentle and humble and extravagant; The stems are fragrant and like the people, and the branches are flourishing without flowers; Although it is a thing in the world, the people do not go. " There are many kinds of potatoes, and the appearance is white, red or purple. The skin is white, yellow, pink, red, purple and black, and the meat is white, yellow, yellow, black, blue, purple and black purple. Potatoes are rich in dietary fiber and have high nutritional value, which can be used as a staple food to satisfy hunger. It can also be used as a meal to enrich the recipes in food culture and even be rich in medicinal properties. Can be used for treating stomachache, rib tuberculosis, carbuncle, eczema, scald and other symptoms. It is a traditional Chinese medicine for strengthening the stomach, and it is also a drug for detoxification and swelling. Chinese medicine believes that potatoes are "sweet and non-toxic, which can strengthen the spleen and stomach, invigorate qi and balance the middle, promote qi and relieve pain, and promote defecation." It has a significant effect on patients with spleen and stomach weakness, indigestion, gastrointestinal disharmony, epigastric pain and poor stool. " Potatoes can also resist aging and prevent diseases, constipation and cancer.
Time washed away and baptized human memory. In the era of hunger, potatoes saved and nurtured many lives, made positive contributions to the progress of human civilization, and wrote and passed on the agricultural farming culture belonging to their own fields. In today's extremely rich food resources, with the improvement of living standards and the progress of human food culture, potato food occupies an increasingly important position on the table. Potatoes are not only food to fill the stomach, but also the food culture of potatoes is constantly bringing forth the old and bringing forth the new. Potato food on the tip of the tongue has entered various high-end restaurants, whether it is western food or Chinese food, whether it is street snacks or high-end food city, it has left the imprint of potato food. Potato food is fragrant and delicious, and it will always make people linger. The cultural value of potatoes has been constantly changing and improving, and the once humble potatoes have doubled in value and become the "golden eggs" on the road of human wealth.
Fourth, the potato industry leads the development.
"Children who eat potatoes", the profound history and culture contained in potatoes, not only shaped the heroic and unrestrained self-confidence of northerners, but also cultivated the gentle and simple character of southerners. One side of the soil and water raises one side, and Zhaotong people prefer potatoes. Charcoal-baked potatoes can be seen everywhere in the streets and lanes. When you step into Zhaotong City, you can always smell the smell of potatoes coming from all over the city.
Zhaotong is located in Wumeng Mountain in Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. It absorbs the aura and essence of the Jinsha River source, and creates the unique geographical advantages, unique geographical environment, extremely cold climate and barren soil resources of the plateau. These superior characteristics are cross-complementary and three-dimensional synthesis, which makes this plateau land very suitable for planting potatoes. The potatoes produced are sweet, tender and crisp, with endless aftertaste.
With the further improvement of people's understanding of potato value and the gradual change of potato food culture concept, the economic value of potato has been gradually improved, and the value of potato industry has doubled. Zhaotong people realized the great value of potatoes and lived together, forming a profound friendship. In order to further promote the scientific and technological progress of potato industry, establish the potato Zhaotong brand, improve the influence and market competitiveness of Zhaotong potato industry, and promote the healthy development of potato industry, Zhaotong will intensify the development of potato industry, build a potato Wumeng industrial base, achieve a breakthrough in further improving the comprehensive output value of potatoes, and further promote the continuous economic and social development of Zhaotong, and write a wonderful story of Zhaotong potato in China's dream.
