Louzi Village, Linyi County: Science and Technology Drought Relief Navel Orange Harvest

Affected by high temperature and drought, the forest and fruit industry in Linzheng County has different degrees of drought. The navel oranges grow well.

The navel orange industrial base of Louzi Village of Koumushan Township is a pilot project of the village -level collective economic development. This navel orange industry base has a total of 1,200 acres. The beads sprayed out of the small hole and reached the root of the fruit tree. It is understood that this is an integrated system introduced by the village in 2020, which can increase water utilization and reduce ground evaporation. It is a practical technology for water saving and effort.

Since the beginning of the summer, the continuous sun and hot and high temperature weather has brought adverse effects on the forest and fruit industry. To ensure the normal growth of navel oranges, Lou Zicun uses a pump to pump 100 tons from the nearby bamboo horse reservoir, and transports the water to the base through a 1000 -meter water diversion pipe. Ensure the normal operation of the integrated equipment of water and fertilizer medicine.

The county agricultural department also organized technicians to go deep into the fields to guide fruit farmers to improve irrigation facilities, adopt measures such as weeding membranes, and effectively cope with high temperature and drought weather to ensure the harvest of navel orange.
