He makes a net profit of 70,000 yuan per person growing small mushrooms. How did he do it?

Choosing a project for starting a business and getting rich is not easy, and finding a brand-new money-making technique in a seemingly ordinary project is even harder.

In Zhalantun, Inner Mongolia, there is just such a money-making expert. Through his own thinking, he turned the old project of edible fungus cultivation into a new money-making trick. What exactly is so special about his edible fungus cultivation cooperative that it can achieve a per capita annual income of 70,000 yuan?

Wild mountain products are in demand, and a keen eye spots a business opportunity

As people's demand for food culture increases, purely natural wild mountain products are in demand, and their economic benefits are also constantly rising.

The forest coverage rate of Zhalantun City in Inner Mongolia reaches 70%, and 20 kinds of mushrooms grow under the forest, with an annual output of nearly 2,000 tons.

Local farmers and out-of-town buyers discovered the business opportunity that mushrooms can make money, and began a one-stop service of picking, purchasing, processing, packaging and selling wild edible fungi. Farmers with vision also took up edible fungus cultivation. Wang Bingcai is one of the beneficiaries who cultivates edible fungi.

Wang Bingcai is an ordinary farmer in the Vegetable Industry Cooperative of Zhalantun City. After seeing the broad prospects of the edible fungus market, he took the lead with 6 other cooperative members in growing birch mushrooms in the vegetable fields. Last year, the per capita net income reached 70,000 yuan, making him a money-making expert in the eyes of the members!

Walking the road to wealth on "two legs"!

The reason Wang Bingcai can grow ordinary mushrooms with such high returns is also thanks to his "two-legged" approach: one leg is growing them himself, reducing the production cost of fungus bags; the other is cleverly exploiting the time gap and choosing the right time to go on the market!

Affected by climate factors, mushrooms in Zhalantun are concentrated on the market in autumn, and together with the peak season of greenhouse cultivation, 3-5 tons of mushrooms can be purchased in a day.

High output brings a big problem - if a sales channel cannot be found in time, the mushrooms will rot and deteriorate, causing huge economic losses.

Wang Bingcai's "second leg" then came into play - cleverly exploiting the time gap.

After cooperating with mushroom deep-processing enterprises, he increased the added value of mushrooms, cleverly avoided the peak period when mushrooms are concentrated on the market, and lengthened the sales period of mushroom products. Not only is the sales channel of mushrooms guaranteed, but it is also not affected by market price fluctuations.

Added value + deep processing = a fuller wallet

In Wang Bingcai's mind, extending the sales time of mushrooms is not the most important goal; increasing added value is what brings higher returns.

In his agricultural product purchasing store, different kinds of deep-processed mushroom products are neatly placed on the shelves.

The products are jointly produced by him and an edible fungus processing enterprise in Heilongjiang. Wang Bingcai provides the raw materials, the processing factory is responsible for processing them into finished products, and then they are sold back.

Although these products are not large in size and their packaging is not as refined as that of well-known enterprises, they have a large market in Zhalantun City and surrounding areas.

From seasoning products with concentrated essence soup to canned mushroom paste, once the market opened, sales volume also soared, and the wealth the common people gained became greater and greater!

The profits of processed products, far higher than those of raw material sales, gave Wang Bingcai hope. At present, he is starting to establish an edible fungus processing factory and has already learned relevant information from the local entrepreneurship guidance center, youth entrepreneurship park, financial institutions and other places, hoping to set up the processing factory with the help of relevant government departments and realize a greater dream of getting rich.
