Gu Peng: In midsummer, the fruity and uninterrupted longan comes to pick up “lychee”

Litchi has not gone, but longan will come. Various seasonal fruits in Guangxi have taken over the market, making it a “sweet summer”. On July 12, when the reporter walked into the Dongpingtun Plantation in Zhilin Village, Gupeng Town, Xincheng County, he saw many longan trees with fruits. The yellow brown fruits and green leaves were staggered, which was very gratifying.

Due to climate reasons, longan is expected to mature and go on sale in mid August. I am planting Shixia longan, which currently has over 200 trees. This year’s longan yield is quite good, and when it matures, it can reach over 2000 kilograms, “said grower Tong Donggang.

Shixia Longan is famous for its thick and small flesh, sweet and fragrant taste, crispy and refreshing meat, good storage and transportation resistance, and excellent quality. Longan can not only be eaten fresh, but also be processed into longan. Longan is rich in sugar, protein, and iron elements, and has effects such as calming the mind, nourishing blood and qi, and enhancing brain and intelligence. It has always been regarded as a precious supplement and is highly favored by consumers.

In recent years, Xincheng County has vigorously promoted the development of characteristic industries, guided towns and villages to rely on the advantages of regional resources to develop characteristic industries, formed an industrial pattern of “one village, one product”, vigorously promoted the revitalization of rural industries to improve quality and efficiency, and led the masses to walk out a good way to increase agricultural income and prosper industries.
