Yingkou has been planting rice for nearly a hundred years. After years of water conservancy construction, dashiqiao city (Yingkou County) West, Laobian District (suburb), gaizhou city (Gai County) Xihai Farm, Tuanshan Town (township) and other large saline-alkali land have been transformed into high-yield rice farmland with vertical and horizontal channels, smooth drainage and irrigation, flat land and contiguous land. As a result of strengthening scientific research, a series of scientific research achievements and advanced experience have been popularized in rice production; In rice varieties, four large-scale updates were carried out; Four major changes have taken place in farming and farming technology; By 1984, a set of cultivation techniques and measures have been formed from land preparation, seedling raising to field management. The yield per mu has increased from 135.5 kg in the early stage of paddy field development to 636.5 kg, with a total rice output of 366,000 tons and an area of 576,000 mu.

In 1950s, high-quality rice varieties mainly included Nonglin No.7 and Nonglin 1. After crossing, a new rice variety-Weiguo was bred. This new variety is superior to other varieties cultivated at that time in terms of yield, quality and biological characteristics, especially suitable for planting in southern Liaoning, with an average yield of 15% and a maximum yield increase of 40% compared with other varieties. 1955 was approved by the Ministry of Agriculture to be popularized in southern Liaoning. It is the first excellent rice variety independently bred in Liaoning Province.

Since 1980s, the new hybrid rice varieties popularized in Yingkou mainly include Li You 57, Liao Jing 5, 7826- 10, 1 195, S 16, etc. Li You 57 is the first hybrid rice variety planted on a large scale in China. It has obvious advantages in root system, assimilation, panicle and grain, high and stable yield, strong adaptability and good rice quality. 7826- 10 (Yingfeng 1) is a new hybrid rice variety selected by dashiqiao city Demonstration Farm and dashiqiao city Agricultural Technology Extension Center, which increased the yield by 10% compared with Jin Feng.

In the 1990s, dashiqiao city vigorously promoted the golden rice variety 8433, which surpassed the ace variety imported from Japan and was very popular in rice producing areas and rice markets. Since 1993, it has become one of the main paddy crops in dashiqiao city. 1994, 654.38 million mu of paddy fields were planted in Liaoning province.

Yingkou rice not only has high yield, but also has good quality, clean rice quality, soft flavor and good palatability. Best-selling at home and abroad, is listed as a high-quality rice production base by the state.

Second, sea salt: a vast sea salt field.

The development of Yingkou Yantian started at 1730 and has a history of 269 years. The city's total area of salt drying is 20,600 hectares, with an annual output of 800,000 tons. Salt chemical products occupy a very important position in the national economy, and most short-term and medium-term products, product types and quantities can not meet the needs of the country. Yingkou sea salt provides a huge resource advantage for the development of salt chemical production: based on the annual output of 800,000 tons of sea salt, the brine discharged after salt production is 800,000 cubic meters, including about 33,500 tons of sodium chloride, 0.35 million tons of magnesium chloride/kloc-,0.6 million tons of potassium chloride/kloc-,69,300 tons of magnesium sulfate and 2,855 tons of magnesium bromide. Therefore, Yingkou City has great potential and broad prospects to make full use of the brine after salt production and develop a series of salt processing and secondary processing products (edible salt, special salt, seasoning salt, animal husbandry salt and nutrient salt).

Three, aquatic products:

1, the jellyfish with the highest yield and quality in China.

Yingkou jellyfish is famous at home and abroad. Jellyfish is a coelenterate, a large warm-water jellyfish, hermaphrodite, living near the estuary, with brackish water, brackish water and sediments. Yingkou jellyfish are distributed in the lower reaches of Liaohe Estuary and Daqing River in the north and along the coast of Guizhou in the south. The main producing area is Beihai Fishing Ground in Tuanshan Town, accounting for 60% of gaizhou city's output. The main varieties are cotton thorn (bowl thorn) and sand thorn. Cotton thorn is delicious and tender, with purple and white color, which is the top grade of jellyfish, accounting for about 70% of jellyfish population. Followed by oil thorn and sand thorn. The meat of sand thorn is thick and white, without impurities, and is characterized by heavy weight. The largest sand sting is like a rice mill, weighing hundreds of kilograms. Since 1973 was exported abroad, the catch of jellyfish has increased year by year, with the highest annual catch in the city reaching more than 10000 tons, accounting for 32.7% of the total output of Liaodong Bay. The output and quality of jellyfish in Yingkou rank first in China.

2. The earliest shrimp culture

Yingkou, with flat beaches, fertile water and rich bait resources, is an excellent place for prawn spawning and reproduction in China. Yingkou has a long history of shrimp farming. At first, it was an extensive farming method that fish and shrimp were mixed with natural larvae at high tide. In the mid-1970s, shrimp culture developed rapidly. During the period of 1974, Yingkou Fisheries Research Institute cooperated with the seawater farm in Laobian District to carry out the experiment of artificial spawning and hatching of prawns, which was successful. Experiments on artificial rearing and intensive culture of prawns were carried out in 1978 and 1979. The recovery rate was 94.4% and the average yield per mu was 369.3 kg, which reached the leading level in Liaoning Province. More than 600 million shrimps are cultured every year, which is not only for local culture, but also for foreign markets. 1983, in order to increase prawn resources macroscopically, the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries approved the establishment of Yingkou Proliferation Experimental Station, which is a scientific experimental base of Bohai Sea aquaculture under the Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences. Its task is to carry out research on shrimp resource proliferation technology, shrimp artificial culture and shrimp exile proliferation experiment. The shrimp culture in Yingkou has embarked on a scientific and large-scale track. The shrimp culture area is 335 1 1 mu, and the annual output has increased from 4 tons 198 1 year to 2268 tons now. In recent years, shrimp culture has become one of the most productive and valuable aquatic products in Yingkou.

3. The largest shrimp market

Shrimp is one of the main species of aquatic resources in Liaodong Bay. The annual catch is about 1 10,000 tons, and the highest annual output reaches 1.87 million tons. The fishing period of shrimp is March-May and September-165438+10 every year. Yingkou has become a distribution center for shrimp production in Liaoning Province. During the fishing season, fishing companies from other cities such as Shandong and Hebei and fishing boats from coastal fishing villages come to fish. Trading at the shrimp market. Because of the good processing quality and reasonable price, Yingkou shrimp skin is very popular, and it is very popular with consumers in the three northeastern provinces and Beijing, Qingdao, Shanghai and Zhejiang.
