Growing morel mushrooms in winter to make money, not letting the land sit idle

Growing morel mushrooms.

After winter sets in, how can large tracts of idle land be made productive and help poor households get richer and increase their incomes? After Zheng Guoli, a migrant worker returning to Dayan Village, Jinhua Town, Fenggang County, learned the techniques for growing morel mushrooms (honeycomb fungus), he invested more than 400,000 yuan in Xinfu Group to rent 30 mu of land and built more than 30 greenhouses to grow morel mushrooms, hiring more than 10 poor households including Li Anhua to work at the base and increase their incomes.

It is understood that each mu yields about 240 kg of fresh mushrooms and can bring in about 30,000 yuan. Zheng Guoli said that next year he will expand the planting scale, consolidate the farmers' scattered land, strengthen infrastructure construction, and encourage all villagers in the group to use idle winter land to grow morel mushrooms. He will establish a morel mushroom growing professional cooperative, make the morel mushroom growing industry bigger and stronger, increase the village-level collective economy and the villagers' income, and help the villagers live a moderately prosperous life as soon as possible.

Working near home can increase income.
