"165438+1October 9, the news that peppers, as a local specialty of Xianyang, went to Hong Kong to attend the Shaanxi, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Agricultural Products Exhibition spread like wildfire in Wangbao Village, Xingping, and the first village of northwest peppers with a pepper transaction volume of more than 300 million yuan this year was boiling.
"Chili noodles, shredded Chili peppers and spicy oil are all specialties. Take the small industry in the port of Hong Kong as an example, which has changed us a lot of money.
"165438+1October 9, the news that peppers, as a local specialty of Xianyang, went to Hong Kong to attend the Shaanxi, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Agricultural Products Exhibition spread like wildfire in Wangbao Village, Xingping, and the first village of northwest peppers with a pepper transaction volume of more than 300 million yuan this year was boiling.
Chaobo Chen, a big pepper planter, was also surprised that Xingping pepper could be eaten by Hong Kong people this time. He gave 225 kilograms of peppers to Qin Yi Pepper Products Co., Ltd. and spent more than 2,000 yuan.
He said that at the beginning, the company made up its mind to plant 105 mu because it provided pepper seedlings, nursery sheds and other materials and technical services for free. Now it is purchased at the promised price at that time, and it can be sold with confidence and planted with peace of mind.
Through the implementation of the "company+base+farmer" model, with the strong support of the government, Wangbao Village, Tang Fang Town, Xingping has become the largest pepper trading market in northwest China, with more than 65.438 million merchants and an annual pepper trading volume of more than 300 million yuan. At present, the number of people engaged in pepper trade in Xi and Lanzhou exceeds 1500.
Xingping Zanthoxylum bungeanum has bright red color and strong spicy taste, which has unparalleled characteristics and advantages in Xianyang.
However, a few years ago, I took a detour.
On June 5438+065438+ 10, 2006, CCTV broadcast the news that Xingping pepper found illegal food additives, which caused widespread concern. The "Chili Sudan Red" incident caused the pepper industry in our city to fall into a trough.
Chaobo Chen clearly remembers: "At that time, foreigners were afraid to buy Xingping pepper. When customers in Xi 'an wholesale market heard these place names, they turned their heads and left.
All the pepper operators in Wangbao Village have pulled down the shutters, and more than 20 pepper processing enterprises have stopped weighing.
"
Pepper, a characteristic industry, is on the verge of extinction.
In this case, our city gave timely support to all aspects of the pepper industry, especially Xingping, the main pepper producing area, and held two training courses successively, inviting experts from the provincial technical supervision bureau to teach pepper enterprises the measures and methods to deal with the market crisis and get out of the predicament.
At the same time, from the perspective of planting peppers, we should adopt the way of "company+agricultural experts+pepper base+farmers" to build pepper brands, reduce the market risk of farmers' planting and revitalize the pepper industry in our city.
Today, only the pepper planting area in Xingping City is close to 30,000 mu.
Hong Kong is an important base for the promotion, trade and re-export of global agricultural products. The second Shaanxi-Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Economic Cooperation Week is a rare opportunity for Xianyang agricultural special products to get involved in agricultural products trading in Hong Kong and Macao with the help of the Asian agricultural products display platform.
Liu Xuemin, manager of Qin Yi Zanthoxylum bungeanum, said confidently that our "Xingping Zanthoxylum bungeanum" not only declared the protection of geographical indications products, but also exported to Singapore and other Southeast Asian countries. With the help of the Hong Kong booth, Xianyang, a hard-won brand, must be very spicy.
