Investing in the agricultural production
JIADING is taking steps to boost agricultural production. Since the Chinese Lunar New Year, farming equipment has been upgraded and other projects are in the pipeline.
Every morning, more than 10,000 geese are fed nutritional fodder made from vegetable residues. At the same time, the workers collect goose dung to make organic fertilizer for vegetables. Recently Jiading has carried out several "inner loop" projects in agricultural production.
In Malu Town, technical workers are growing king oyster mushroom on mashed vines in pilot phase. Comparing with the traditional sawdust, mashed vine can provide more nutrition, so the mushroom can grow whiter, faster and taste better. This technology has passed the tests by the relevant department for Shanghai's agriculture. This year more than 50 percent of king oyster mushroom will be planted on mashed vines in Malu. Besides, the district is carrying out a research project on microbial fertilizer, which provides plenty of nutrients for the vegetables.
'Small fruit' farms
Jiading residents will be able to buy locally grown fruits like cherries, kiwis and loquats soon. The district is now working on three major "small fruit" production bases - the 4-hectare cherry cultivation base in Juyuan New Area, the 4.6-hectare kiwi base in Waigang Town and the loquat base in Anting Town. The cherry and kiwi production bases are already under construction.
Shanghai mainly grows grapes, peaches, pears and citrus fruits. Adding cherries, kiwis and loquats will improve variety and provide additional income for farmers.
Jiading's research on soil formation has been completed. Within the year, Jiading farmers can search the soil testing results through the Internet and obtain the "best fertilization solution" worked out by professionals based on local soil conditions. So far, Jiading has completed fertilization formulas for growing rice, wheat, strawberries, cantaloupes and grapes. A study on soil for vegetable cultivation will also be conducted this year.
After the Spring Festival, the Jiading agriculture department did a study on the demands of farming machinery in the district to allocate the farming equipment reasonably for the farmers and boost mechanization in agricultural production. Jiading will purchase 50 advanced reapers this year, which will make the district's reaping mechanization at over 80 percent.
