after graduating from high school, Liu Decheng went out to work as a long-distance truck driver. More than 10 years from the south, he fell in love with the beautiful scenery of a million mu lotus pond in the south, and determined to "transplant" the landscape, vegetables and fruits in Hubei fruit lotus root to Ji'nan. To this end, he first trained himself as a "learned tyrant" farmer, and studied scientific farming everywhere.
on Sunday, January 22nd, Liu Decheng hired a few farmers digging lotus root pond in the boundless lotus root pond at the village head of Baoshan Village, Baoshan Village, on Sunday. On the side, a bunch of fresh lotus roots were kept. Without peddling, pedestrians will stop when they see it.
an old man came from a neighboring village on an electric tricycle. He picked up the lotus root carefully and carefully. "It's too expensive." "The lotus root has to get me down." "Is it really crisp and no residue? Is it really fruity?" After a "pick up", he readily bought dozens of catties. When he left, he smiled and said, "I used to be a lotus root. No one wants to fool me. I've seen more than a dozen lotus roots today, so I'll count this one. "
the reporter saw that the lotus root pond had already covered the water with a layer of antifreeze film. Liu Decheng said: "if there is water in the lotus pond, the mud is washed away with water gun directly, it is easy to dig, the lotus root dug is clean, almost no injury, but it is not easy to save, easy to be 'withered'. After the water is released, the lotus root excavated has a little mud, which is easy to preserve, but also keeps fruit like taste.
at Liu Decheng's house, he kept about 10 certificates of various training courses in scientific field. He was an excellent student in every training course. A few years ago, while working outside, he took a self - taught college course and got a college degree. Today, he has grown into a master of all kinds of scientific farming skills.
Liu Decheng told reporters that he did not have a high degree of education. After graduating from high school, he went to the south to work in the south, and became a long haul truck driver for more than 10 years. During this period, he had driven through Hubei many times and was attracted by the ubiquitous lotus pond. A few years ago, Liu Decheng returned to his hometown to become a farmer of scientific farming. As long as he knows where to run a training course for scientific farming, he will run over to sign up. At the end of 2015, in order to give villagers a good start, he contracted about 100 acres of farmland through land circulation. These fields are located in the spring of Baiquan, where water is abundant, and the beauty of lotus pond is sprung up before his eyes. Liu Decheng then hired experts from the Academy of Sciences as advisers and went to Hubei to study the lotus root planting techniques and successfully introduced Hubei fruit lotus root.
in 2016, when lotus seeds were planted, Liu Decheng used his knowledge to apply organic fertilizer and irrigate the water of Baiquan. "This is the first time that lotus roots have been harvested. I didn't expect it to be accepted in the market. It can sell 300 boxes a day in the village."
next step, Liu Decheng also wants to develop lotus flower bonsai, lotus root farm music and spring water near suburban tour. With scientific and scientific knowledge and scientific planning, we can develop the subdivision field of "white spring fruit lotus root" in the lotus root market, and lead the villagers to carry out Characteristic Cultivation and characteristic culture through demonstration and leading role.
