In the golden autumn season, walked into the Blue Pomelo Base in Minding Ridge in Tan Dou Town, Leizhou City, and looked at it. The green ruby ​​green pomelo fruit hung on the branches, and the grapefruit was overflowing. Workers are busy picking, packing, transportation, etc., presenting a busy harvest scene.

Mr. He, the owner of the orchard, is from "Honey Pomelo's Hometown" -Fujian, has always had a soft spot for grapefruit. Five years ago, he came to Leizhou with his friends and chose "Hometown of Mango" Qin Douzhen to create more than 500 acres of grapefruit planting bases. In the past few years, they continued to explore planting and management techniques, and improved this orchard grapefruit variety the year before, and grafted the characteristic ruby ​​green grapefruit on each tree. After careful care, scientific management, and unique resource advantages such as the long time in Leizhou, the grapefruit at the 500 acres of ruby ​​green pomelo base has grown up and successful grafting. Some fruit trees have begun to hang fruit since last year. Earlier this year, although it was affected by the cold wave, it was postponed, but it still ushered in a harvest and recently began to pick up.

According to reports, since the current planting area is relatively small, the current market price of ruby ​​green pomelo is expensive, and it can be sold for 30 yuan per kilogram.

Mr. He admits that he has come to Leizhou to invest in agriculture thousands of miles away. In the past few years, he has adhered to the orchard, constantly repairing production facilities such as hard bottoming orchard roads, installing fat and water integrated pipelines, and having atomizers in the air, and has paid unimaginable hardships. This year, the orchard has opened the door. In order to give back to everyone, he decided to sell it with "the price of the people" so that more people can taste this characteristic fruit. He expects that in the future, it can drive local farmers to actively develop high -efficiency agricultural agriculture, allow Thai ruby ​​green pomelo to develop and grow in Leizhou, create a new brand of "Lingnan Jiaguo", and help rural revitalization.

It is understood that since last year, under the drive of Mr. He, many farmers such as Qin Dou, Enterprise Water, Yingli, and other townships in Leizhou have adjusted the planting structure and planted more than 500 acres of grapefruit. It will usher in the harvest season next year.
