In recent years, Moyu County has fully tapped farmers' courtyards, fields and other available land to develop "autumn and winter vegetables" with a planting area of 110,000 mu and a yield of 200,000 tons. The county has extended the storage time of fruits and vegetables by opening up links such as "planting, storage, and sales".

Contact person: Nurbia Ainiwal Wang Xian, Rong Media Center, Yuepuhu County In the early morning of August 26, Tursun Ayi Wupur, an employee of Kashgar Tianren Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and colleagues They are busy in the fig field in Yuepuhu Township, Yuepuhu County. During this time, they are buying figs in the field. As a food processing enterprise, Kashi Tianren Biotechnology Co., Ltd. has its own fresh-keeping warehouse. The company makes full use of Yuepu Lake figs, star anise pears and other special agricultural products to develop and produce fig naan, fig milk crust pastry, fig moon cake and other products. The company has also launched Taobao online stores and flagship stores and other marketing models, and its products are well received by consumers. After the figs are packaged, they will be sent to the fresh-keeping warehouse for storage.

Relying on the unique advantageous resources, according to the whole industry chain and the integration of primary, secondary and tertiary industries, a healthy development path for the fig industry led by leading enterprises and active participation of cooperatives and farmers is formed. In the past few days, Wang Xin, general manager of Xinjiang Senruiya China Preservation Technology Co., Ltd., is busy preparing to harvest and process figs. Frozen fresh figs have high requirements on fig fruit. In recent days, figs cannot be harvested after continuous rain, and they need to wait for the weather to be fine before they can be harvested. The abundant sunshine hours in Yuepuhu County and the relatively soft land make the figs planted with large size, sufficient water and high sugar content, which are favored by consumers. But for a long time, due to the short shelf life of figs, figs in southern Xinjiang have been sold as far as Urumqi. In June 2018, after Xinjiang Senraya China Preservation Technology Co., Ltd. settled in Yuepuhu County, it actively developed Xinjiang fig preservation technology. Through pre-cooling, sterilization, etc., the preservation period of figs was extended from 2 days to 25 days, allowing Yuepu Lake figs go to the national market. At present, the fig planting area in Yuepuhu County reaches 120,000 mu. Relying on fig preservation technology, the local area will steadily expand the fig planting area and create a one-stop modern industry including standardized planting, intelligent sorting, and full cold chain transportation. Cold Chain Logistics Helps Fresh Keeping "Continuous Chain" Contact Person: Zuo Xiaoyu of Changji Rong Media Center Right now, it is the harvest season of grapes, and fruit farmers in Hutubi County are busy picking, sorting, and loading baskets. The full-grained and crystal clear grapes are sent to the fresh-keeping warehouse as soon as possible. "The quality of grapes in our county is good, but fresh table grapes cannot be stored. If they are not sold in time, it will affect the income of fruit farmers." Zhao Yong, founder of Hutubi County Huinong Agricultural Products Preservation Cooperative, said that the grapes are sent to fresh-keeping after picking. It is stored in a low temperature environment, and then sold to various markets through cold chain logistics, without affecting the quality and taste of grapes. As a pathfinder of the fruit preservation industry in Hutubi County, Zhao Yong has witnessed the change of the fruit preservation industry from scratch and from weak to strong. In 1998, Zhao Yong introduced a miniature energy-saving fresh-keeping warehouse equipment and built a family-type fresh-keeping warehouse. At that time, he tried to store 10 tons of Kyoho grapes in the warehouse, and successfully extended the fresh-keeping period of the grapes to before and after the Spring Festival. As soon as it went on the market, it was sold out, and the income was more than 100,000 yuan. Not only did he recover the investment in the construction of the fresh-keeping warehouse, but also made a profit of 20,000 yuan. In 2008, after 10 years of struggle in the field of fruit preservation, Zhao Yong led the establishment of Hutubi County Huinong Agricultural Products Preservation Cooperative. Today, the cooperative has 120 fruit and vegetable preservation warehouses with a total storage capacity of 12,000 tons. In recent years, Hutubi County has continued to extend the characteristic forest and fruit industry chains such as grapes and fragrant begonia fruits. Taking the development of fruit and vegetable preservation cooperatives as a breakthrough, it has accelerated the construction of a cold chain logistics center, and transformed the resource advantages of the forest and fruit industry into economic advantages. The industrialized business model integrating planting, fresh-keeping, cold-chain transportation and sales has effectively promoted the rapid development of the fruit and vegetable fresh-keeping industry and broadened the path for farmers to increase their income. In the constant temperature fresh-keeping warehouse of fruits and vegetables of Zhongyi Edible Fungus Farmers' Professional Cooperative in Hutubi County, grapes and other fruits and vegetables are sorted and boxed and then transported through the cold chain, and sent directly to domestic markets such as Nanjing and Beijing, as well as to Thailand, Australia, Malaysia, etc. foreign market. Today, through the seamless connection between fresh-keeping warehouses and cold chain logistics, Hutubi County’s characteristic high-quality fruits and vegetables have continuously enhanced their off-peak sales capabilities and increased the added value of agricultural products, truly leaving the value-added benefits of the industrial chain to farmers.
