Zheng Huai, Chairman of yingshan county Youliang Torreya grandis Professional Cooperative in Huanggang City: Its fruits are usually hung behind. It's over. How much weight can this tree bear? ) This tree is probably Takamatsu alone, with a diameter of seven or eight centimeters. Can pick olives 10 kg, according to this year's market can change more than 200 yuan.
Every September, torreya grandis fruits that have been growing on trees for three years can be harvested when they turn yellow and crack. After picking and frying olives, they became famous dried fruits "Torreya grandis".
Zheng Huai, Chairman of yingshan county Youliang Torreya grandis Professional Cooperative, Huanggang City: In recent years, the market price of its dried fruits is about 120 yuan a catty, almost more than 200 grains per catty, almost 50 cents each.
Speaking of his own torreya grandis, Zheng Huai gushed. This young man with dark skin and an old straw hat graduated from Huazhong Normal University. Before returning to his hometown to plant torreya grandis, he was a white-collar worker and had a stable job in the metropolis.
Zheng Huai, Chairman of yingshan county Youliang Torreya grandis Professional Cooperative in Huanggang City: I have a younger sister who married in Zhejiang. Once I visited her relatives' house and saw that all the trees in their home were planted with this kind of fruit tree, and no one went out to work. She earns hundreds of thousands every year.
From poverty to food and clothing, from living in adobe houses to living in foreign houses, Zheng Huai was deeply touched by the changes in Xiao Yan's family over the past decade. Can such a "cash cow" be developed and planted in my hometown?
At the same time: Zheng Huai, the chairman of Liangtorreya grandis professional cooperative in yingshan county, Huanggang City, is only suitable for subtropical species with 30 degrees north latitude, and the climate here is quite similar to that in Zhejiang. The growth and yield of trees planted here are higher than those in Zhejiang. Dabie Mountain is sandy soil and Zhejiang is yellow mud.
The output benefit of "Golden Fruit" on "cash cow" is 40,000 yuan.
Torreya grandis is a relatively cold-resistant tree species in the subtropical zone, and likes slightly acidic to neutral sandy loam soil. The hillside valley with less direct light and more scattered light is its best habitat.
Zheng Huai, Chairman of Youliang Torreya grandis Professional Cooperative in yingshan county, Huanggang City: Generally, this tree begins to bear fruit every 0-5 years. Each tree can pick 30 to 50 kilograms, and an acre of land can plant 50 trees. Take the middle amount of 40 kg, and you can pick 2000 kg per mu. If 20 yuan weighs a kilo, it can become 40,000 yuan.
In 20 13, Zheng Huai returned to his hometown to develop and plant more than 200 acres of torreya grandis. In the following years, he expanded four new bases and developed and planted 2,800 mu of Torreya grandis forest. As torreya grandis grows bigger, its annual income doubles.
The price of torreya grandis is stable, and the market is difficult to be saturated in 10.
Through Zheng Huai's introduction, we have a preliminary understanding of torreya grandis. But have you found that torreya grandis is basically unavailable in the market? Is this torreya selling well? How big is the market space? Is there any prospect for developing Torreya grandis industry in Hubei? What should I pay attention to?
Torreya grandis is a unique tree species in China, and its planting area is the widest in Zhejiang Province at present. In the past two years, Anhui, Jiangxi and other provinces are also vigorously developing planting.
Li Aihua, Deputy Director of Economic Forest Research Institute of Provincial Academy of Forestry: The development of our province is relatively late, and the introduction of this tree species has not exceeded 10 years. In recent two years, people have learned more and more about this tree species. Now you say that there are basically not tens of thousands of acres in large scale, but together, the province has developed rapidly, with 20,000 to 30,000 acres.
The lack of improved varieties restricts industrial development.
Director Li, who specializes in torreya grandis research, introduced that torreya grandis is a variant type of torreya grandis, which is distributed in Dabie Mountain, Wuling Mountain and Qinba Mountain areas of our province. In other words, torreya grandis can be planted in these areas.
Li Aihua, Deputy Director of Economic Forestry Research Institute of Provincial Academy of Forestry: There is also a problem in the development of our province. Now they are all imported from Zhejiang and Anhui, and there are no improved varieties of their own. We dare not draw a conclusion as to whether the superior varieties from other places are good varieties on our side. Therefore, when developing this industry, the introduction must be cautious.
Lack of improved varieties is the bottleneck of Torreya grandis planting and development in our province. In addition, due to the short introduction time, many growers do not understand their growth habits, and inadequate management technology is also an important factor restricting industrial development.
Li Aihua, Deputy Director of Economic Forestry Research Institute of Provincial Academy of Forestry: In addition, the development of the industry needs a long industrial chain, so that the industry can develop healthily and continuously. Our traditional practice is cooking. In recent years, the cultivation of torreya grandis has become hot, and the product development has also developed well (in Zhejiang), such as torreya grandis soap, torreya grandis oil and some skin care products.
Torreya grandis planting is slow and needs a combination of length and length.
Torreya grandis can be used as food, medicine and oil, and has great development potential in processing. Planting torreya grandis will bring considerable benefits. However, it needs to be reminded that if Torreya grandis is to be developed, we must be prepared for a protracted war.
