Speaking of Zhangjiakou, you may first think of labels such as "Winter Olympic City", "Grassland Skyway", "Ice and Snow Town", "Great Rivers and Mountains". But you know, the agricultural industry in Zhangjiakou is also very promising.

"Zhangzagu" breeding technology is the first in China, and the seed production area is the first in China; It has a national regional breeding base for potato varieties, and its potato breeding level ranks first in China; Fresh corn is one of the five largest production areas in China, and its breeding level ranks first in China

From "digging food in the soil" to "producing gold with characteristics", Zhangjiakou continued to promote stable agricultural production and increase production, farmers' income, and rural stability and tranquility, to ensure that new progress has been made in the overall revitalization of rural areas and new steps have been taken in agricultural and rural modernization.

Today, please follow the reporter to explore the "really unexpected" characteristic and advantageous agricultural industries in Zhangjiakou, and understand the "different Zhangjiakou".

What I didn't expect is fresh corn:

It tastes soft, glutinous and sweet, with a sales volume of 100 million ears a year. This is fresh corn from Wanquan District, Zhangjiakou City.

It is understood that Wanquan District has also explored a set of secrets of "locking the freshness" of corn. After the corn is picked from the field, it will be peeled, cleaned, steamed, and frozen quickly within 5 hours to ensure the good taste of corn.

At present, Zhangjiakou fresh corn has developed into a whole industry chain industry integrating seed research and development, organic planting, storage and processing, one of the five major production areas in China, and the breeding level is the first in China; The seed production area is 12000 mu, ranking first in the country; The planting area is 182000 mu, and the output is 630 million ears, ranking first in the province; The annual processing capacity is 600 million ears, ranking first in the province.

"Zhang Zagu":

"If you plant 'Zhangza Valley', you can get rid of poverty by five mu, become rich by ten mu, and build houses and marry wives by one hundred and eighty mu." This saying is widely spread in Xuanhua, Zhangjiakou, the birthplace of the "Zhangza Valley" series of varieties.

On April 28, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs issued the Notice of the General Office of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs on Promoting and Releasing the Main Promotion Technology of 2024 Agricultural Leading Varieties, and the "Zhang Zagu No. 13" independently selected by Zhangjiakou Academy of Agricultural Sciences was selected as the leading variety of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs in 2024.

It is understood that the breeding technology of Zhangjiakou "Zhangzagu" is the first in China, and the breeding level is world leading. The seed production area is 13400 mu, ranking first in China; The planting area is 320400 mu, and the output is 104000 tons.

Today, "Zhang Zagu" has lived up to the expectations of the public, and has handed over a dazzling "report card" in terms of ensuring food security and driving farmers to increase income.

Really unexpected potato:

"The output of frozen potato chips of Xuechuan Agricultural Group ranks first in Asia, with a domestic market share of more than 35%. It has served 100000 catering stores in total, and the export of frozen potato products accounts for more than 50% of the national export share." The relevant person in charge of Zhangjiakou Municipal Bureau of Agriculture and Rural Affairs introduced.

Potato is a characteristic crop in Zhangjiakou, accounting for about half of the area and output of Hebei Province. Zhangjiakou is the national potato regional breeding base for improved varieties, with an annual production of 1.9 billion original micro potatoes, 100000 mu of virus-free potato seed production area, ranking first in the country in terms of breeding level.

In 2023, there will be 51 potato seed potato enterprises in the city, which will produce 1.9 billion original seed mini potatoes annually, accounting for two-thirds of the national total. Among them, Zhangbei County produces 1.6 billion micro potatoes, accounting for half of the national total.

In addition, Zhangjiakou potato industry has formed a complete industrial chain. In 2023, there will be 13 potato processing enterprises in the city, with an annual consumption of 700000 tons of potato raw materials, 30000 tons of potato powder, 250000 tons of potato chips and 35000 tons of starch.

Really unexpected grapes:

To the north lies the rolling Yanshan Mountains, to the south lies the remnants of the towering Taihang Mountains, and to the near is Guanting Reservoir, which covers an area of about 200 square kilometers. This is Huailai County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province, known as the "Hometown of Chinese Grapes" and "Hometown of Chinese Wine".

Zhangjiakou's grape planting area is 111700 mu, ranking first in the province, with an output of 208000 tons. Why does Zhangjiakou grape taste good and yield high? The main reason is the unique geographical location. The core grape planting area is mainly concentrated in Huaizhuo Basin, which is located at 40 degrees north latitude. It is the "golden zone" for grape planting, with a history of 1200 years of grape cultivation.

With its unique geographical environment and natural conditions, Zhangjiakou has gathered a number of high-end wineries such as COFCO Great Wall Sanggan, Shacheng Manor, and produced China's first bottle of dry white wine, the first bottle of Matheland wine, the first bottle of champagne sparkling wine, and the international standard brandy.

I didn't expect the wrong season vegetables:

Create 46% output value of planting industry with 9% of cultivated land? Zhangjiakou's vegetable industry has achieved this.

The biggest advantage of Zhangjiakou vegetable industry is that it is listed in the wrong season. "The listing period is concentrated in June October, which is the slack season of vegetable supply nationwide." The relevant person in charge of Zhangjiakou Municipal Bureau of Agriculture and Rural Affairs said that Zhangjiakou is one of the major bases for vegetable production and supply in the slack season of summer and autumn in China, also known as the "vegetable garden" in Beijing.

Color pepper, trellis beans, lettuce, broccoli... Zhangjiakou's vegetable products are large in scale and high in quality. They have high popularity in domestic and foreign markets, and have obvious export advantages. For example, the supply of broccoli of Guyuan Wuhua Meadow Food Company accounts for 80% of the market share in Hong Kong.

Really unexpected edible fungi:

When entering Zhangjiakou Chicheng County Modern Agricultural Science and Technology Demonstration Park, morchella mushrooms in the greenhouses "bloom" on the ridges of the fields in an orderly manner. They are very fleshy, plump and growing well.

Zhangbei's "Yehuling" trademark was rated as a famous trademark in Hebei Province and one of the top ten well-known brands of edible fungi in Hebei Province. Four products of Pleurotus ostreatus, Agaricus bisporus, Lentinus edodes and Pleurotus eryngii obtained the national green food A-level product certification; The mushroom and agaricus matsutake products produced by Shibai Agriculture in Chongli are exported to many countries in Southeast Asia

Zhangjiakou is known as the "hometown of mushrooms" in China, and the wild "mushrooms outside the Great Wall" is famous at home and abroad. In 2023, the cultivation area and output of edible fungi in the city will reach 5000 mu and 42000 tons respectively, and more than 10 varieties will be mainly planted, such as shiitake, pleurotus ostreatus, bisporus, flammulina velutipes, pleurotus eryngii, agaric, and xiangkou mushroom, which are distributed in Zhangbei, Chicheng, Guyuan, Zhuolu, Chongli, Yuxian and other places.
