At the same time, Chu was given another name-inspirational orange because of his legendary experience of ups and downs and never giving up. The 74-year-old Chu Shijian is at a low ebb in his life, and the honor of "China Smoke King" has vanished.
However, as Chu wrote in "Chu Xu: Entrepreneurs Affect Entrepreneurs": "I have experienced several ups and downs in my life. I don't talk about regret and regret, and I don't need to prove my life value to anyone. People are responsible for themselves. As long as they don't want to come down, others can't let you down. "
Without stopping the struggle, Chu and his wife Ma Jingfen contracted the barren hills to start planting citrus, dug ditches and diverted canals, improved soil and fertility, strictly controlled branches and pruning, and integrated modern agricultural technology and standardized quality control system into fruit planting. After more than ten years of hard work, they finally achieved a legendary brand "Chu Orange".
Chu orange can become the king of oranges, without its unique growth environment. Chu Orange Orchard is located in Ailaoshan Nature Reserve in central Yunnan, in the upper reaches of the Red River, far away from the original ecological planting in the city, with an annual sunshine of 2,000 hours and sufficient sunshine. The daily temperature difference is about 65438 05℃, which is very beneficial to the accumulation of sugar in fruit. Moreover, Ailao Mountain in Yuxi is also known as the "natural greenhouse", which is very suitable for the growth of oranges.
Planting technique
1, time: Generally, it is planted after bamboo shoots mature in September-1 1 or before bamboo shoots germinate in February and March.
2. Density: The planting density is 3m× 4m, with 55-60 plants per mu.
3. Planting technology: digging planting holes with soil: pulling wires at certain intervals, digging planting holes with a depth of 80cm and a width of 80 cm, then pressing green manure with a depth of 50cm and backfilling soil with a height of 40cm for planting; Ridge planting: 8 meters, 60-80㎝ wide and 40-60cm deep, with 2 ridges per grid (width 1.5m, center distance 4m, height 20-30cm).
When planting, the roots of seedlings should be trimmed appropriately, placed in the center of the planting hole, stretched and righted, and the seedlings should be gently lifted upward while filling the soil, so that the roots are closely connected with the soil. Water the roots, make a 1m tree tray around the seedlings, and cover it with chaff.
