Master the Three Earlies and Three Skills for Spring Potato Planting to Achieve High Returns
Three Earlies: Choose early-maturing varieties. Practice has proven that selecting high-yielding, high-quality, virus-free potato varieties with a growth period within 70 days (from emergence to harvest) is the key to achieving high, stable yields and quality in spring-planted potatoes. Currently ideal varieties include Holland No. 7, Holland No. 15, Zhengshu No. 6, etc. Start sprouting early. Using a sunny cold frame before planting to pre-sprout can make potatoes emerge early and uniformly, with complete and strong seedlings, promoting early plant development and early tuber formation - this is an important yield-increasing measure. The key points of sprouting technique are: before planting

High returns from the grid-pool fish-lotus polyculture model
The grid-pool fish-lotus polyculture technique involves partitioning a hardened lotus pool with roof tiles, hard boards and the like into small grids of 2-4 sq m each, planting lotus within the grids, yielding an average of 0.5 wan kg of lotus and 400-450 kg of fish per mu of water surface, with a net return of over 10,000 yuan per mu. This technique can make use of waste pits, wasteland, river beach land and scattered corner plots to build grid-pool fish-lotus polyculture systems; it features small investment, low cost, quick returns and high benefits, is suitable for vigorous development by countless rural households, and has very broad prospects for extension.

Keeping mountain bees brings high returns and is a good path to increasing income and becoming better off
The mountain bee is a wild economic insect. The honey it makes from the nectar of the many flowers in nature is a fine grade of honey, and its market price can reach 30-40 yuan per kg. Generally, one bucket of mountain bees can yield about 25 kg of honey per year. If the colony is strong, the nectar source is good and the climate is suitable, each colony can produce 40-50 kg of honey. Right now is the peak period for mountain bee colony division, and bringing mountain bees home to raise them is a good project with low investment and quick results. Making and placing the bee bucket. The bee bucket is made up of a bottom bucket, an extension bucket, a bucket bottom and a bucket cap (lid)

Scientific and technological leadership brings high returns in silver carp farming
Grow-out fish (market-size commercial fish) farming is the ultimate goal and purpose of fish farming. In recent years, although special aquatic product farming has become "hot" across the country, the traditional farming and consumption of silver carp and bighead carp remain bulk commodities, and the economic returns are still considerable. They have the advantages of small investment, quick results, easy operation, abundant seed sources, and mature production, and are very popular among fishermen. The production process and technical key points mainly use the intensive culture method of "water, seed, feed, density, polyculture, rotation, prevention, and management." 1. Pond conditions: area 0.3-1.4 hectares, clay or loam bottom soil is preferable

Semi-underground three-dimensional cultivation of oyster mushrooms yields high output and good returns
Semi-underground three-dimensional bed-frame cultivation of oyster mushrooms is a new approach explored in recent years to achieve high yields and improve economic returns. According to trials, on an area of 20 sq m, with 2000 kg of substrate, the annual output of oyster mushrooms is about 2500 kg, with a biological efficiency of over 120%. The key technical points are as follows: 1. Building the greenhouse: first dig a pit 1.8 m to 2 m deep and 4 m to 5 m wide, with the length determined as needed, and place the three-dimensional bed frames inside. On top, use bamboo poles and plastic film to build an arched shed, pack the surrounding edges firmly with soil, and cover with straw mats. Leave ventilation openings of about 30 square cm on all four sides, east, west, north and south, and build a small door on the west side for workers to enter and exit.

Mixed farming of turtles and earthworms in the same pond yields high economic returns
Under micro-flowing water conditions, amphibious turtles and aquatic earthworms are co-cultured in one pond, with the aquatic earthworms serving as the main feed or supplementary feed for the turtles. This can make the turtles strong and healthy, grow faster, shorten the breeding cycle, reduce feeding costs, and more than double economic returns. Moreover, throughout the entire rearing process, contamination of the product by hormone drugs is avoided, meeting the basic requirements for pollution-free food and making it more popular with consumers. The main technical points are introduced as follows: 1. Pond construction: choose a site with abundant water sources and good water quality

Deep processing of sweet potatoes brings good returns, giving farmers a new way to increase their income
I. Crispy rice crust 1. Raw material preparation. Select 10 parts of fresh sweet potatoes with a high dry matter content, cut off the roots and stems, and wash them with water. Separately select 1 part of highly sticky glutinous rice, soak it in water and wash it for 30 minutes, then drain off the water. Next, put the sweet potatoes and glutinous rice into separate pots, add water, and steam them thoroughly over high heat for later use. Then put the mashed cooked sweet potatoes and glutinous rice, while still hot, into a bucket, and quickly pound them with a thick stick into a paste. At the same time add a small amount of white sugar water to increase sweetness and flavor. 2. Spreading the paste. Take a clean cloth sheet and spread it flat on a sun-drying mat,

High economic returns from intercropping apricot trees with Chinese medicinal herbs
In recent years, farmers in the rural areas around Luoyang, Henan, have adopted the "forest-medicinal herb intercropping" method to plant trees and grow medicinal herbs, becoming wealthy through both the "forest" and the "medicinal herbs." The soil in the Luoyang area is very high in potassium, so the kernel apricot, a potassium-loving plant, finds the necessary soil conditions to grow there. Moreover, the light, heat and moisture conditions here all suit the growth requirements of kernel apricot. Kernel apricot is cold-tolerant, light-loving and tolerant of poor soil, making it suitable for planting on semi-arid hilly slopes. After planting, kernel apricot can bloom and bear fruit in two to three years, and in four to five

Sweet potato starch is in high demand in the market, and timely processing yields high returns.
Sweet potato starch occupies an increasingly important position in people's daily diet. Potato-based chemical products have now become the main raw materials for chemical products such as lactic acid, citric acid, disposable tableware and degradable agricultural mulch film. It is understood that the current price of refined white potato starch has risen by nearly 10% compared with last year, and the reason for this price trend is undoubtedly the supply-demand gap for sweet potato starch. Relevant data show that at present, the demand for sweet potato starch in the domestic market alone is more than 1 million tons, while the production volume is far less than this number.
