It is understood that there are more than 350 kinds of edible fungi known in China, of which many belong to Basidiomycotina. The edible mushroom industry is a short-term fast rural economic development project integrating economic benefits, ecological benefits and social benefits. A class of organic, nutritious, and health-friendly green foods. In many places, the edible fungus industry has achieved industrialization and has driven the people out of poverty and income.
Lu Shi: Industrialization of Edible Mushroom Industry Drives People to Lift Poverty and Income
Lushi County: The mushroom industry flourished into a leading industry for the people to rise from poverty and increase income.
It is reported that in 2009, 9 companies in Lu’s County achieved mushroom exports exceeding RMB 700 million, a record high, and an increase of 27% compared to 2016. The site relies on superior geographical location and climatic conditions and is China’s top five quality shiitake mushrooms. As one of the production bases in the core area of the southwest of Henan, the mushroom industry has become a leading industry for the people to get rid of poverty and increase income.
In the development of the mushroom industry, Lushi County is even more critical in implementing the development strategy of 'financial poverty alleviation + leading enterprises'. By establishing a fungus industry production workshop and introducing a fungus bar production line, it not only significantly improves the industrialization of the mushroom industry in the county, but also automates it. , The level of diversification has also driven poverty-stricken households across the county to achieve stability and get rid of poverty.
The author was informed that Faith Group has 12 edible fungus industry production workshops, supporting bagging, mixing, sterilization, inoculation, and bacteriostatic equipment, and has an annual output of 30 million rods. It is the largest edible fungus bar production line in China. It will gradually meet the needs of poverty-stricken households in the county for the development of edible fungi, and will drive 6,000 poor households. The average annual household income can reach 20,000 yuan.
Industrialization of edible mushroom industry
In recent years, the mushroom industry is not only a sunrise industry that turns waste into treasure, but also a means for farmers in the vast region to shake off poverty. With the transformation and upgrading of the mushroom industry, the production of fungus rods has achieved industrialization.
According to the author's understanding, the industrialization of fungus bar production means that many programs such as ingredients, spices, bagging, sterilization, and sterilization are produced through 'mechanization' and 'line production', which greatly improves labor efficiency and safety, reduces labor costs, and reduces food consumption. The transformation and upgrading of the fungus industry and the promotion of quality and efficiency have played a positive role in promoting. The above-mentioned belief group is to promote the transformation and upgrading of the local edible fungus industry through the introduction of edible fungus bar production lines, and to increase farmers' income.
In addition, under the pressure of environmental protection, Sichuan Lezhi Village invested 240,000 yuan to introduce environmentally friendly autoclave steamer for the sterilization of edible fungus bags. At the same time, it also invested 130,000 yuan to introduce high efficiency. The bacteria bag filling machine formed a relatively complete edible fungus production line, effectively solved the environmental protection issues and the technical requirements for the cultivation of edible fungi, and promoted the industrialization of edible fungus industry.
In the process of industrialization of edible fungi, processing machinery plays a major role
According to industry insiders, as the industrial process of the edible fungus industry continues to accelerate, related processing machinery has been developed. The author was informed that an employee of Longquan City Mushroom Automation Equipment Co., Ltd. has a variety of mycelial processing machines, such as punching machines, tie-in machines, and equipment. Bag machines, etc. It is understood that manual punching can only hit 200 to 300 bacteria sticks per hour. The puncher can hit more than 1900 bacteria sticks per hour, and the efficiency has been improved by more than 5 times.
In addition, the development of the edible mushroom industry requires a large amount of labor. In particular, after the fungus culture materials are produced, they need to be manually packed and garnishes. However, the shortage of rural labor causes difficulties for the production of edible fungi. With the application of bagging machines, The workload that originally required more than a dozen people per day, with the help of a machine, can be completed by only three people, greatly improving the work efficiency and reducing the labor demand.
In conclusion, the development of the edible mushroom industry is in line with people's consumption growth and the need for sustainable development in agriculture and rural areas. It is an effective way for farmers to get rich quickly. Together with the accelerated industrialization of the mushroom industry, the emergence of mushroom processing machines , not only to improve the production efficiency, but also to help the edible fungi production companies to save costs. I believe that with the help of the relevant processing machinery, edible fungi industry will continue to grow and develop, and promote rural economic prosperity and development.
