Li Baoguo: Devoted his life to weaving taishan green clothes

September 17, President Hu Jintao signed
presidential decree, awarding 42 national medals and honorary titles. Among them, a familiar name is Li Baoguo, he was awarded the "people's model" national honorary title.
his lifetime, Li Baoguo was a professor at Hebei Agricultural University, a well-known economic forest expert in China, an expert on special allowances for the
government, and a national science and technology special agent. For more than 30 years, he went deep into the grass-roots level more than 200 days a year, so that 1.4 million acres of desert mountains covered in green, to help farmers increase income of more than 3.5 billion yuan.
Not long ago, during the "11th" holiday, many people visited Li Baoguo Mausoleum and Li Baoguo's Advanced Deeds Exhibition Hall, located in the hilly village of Qiu County, Yantai City, Hebei Province, to commemorate the mountain governance expert who lifted the poor village out of poverty.reporter first came to know Li Baoguo, from an interview.
the beginning of 1996, in line with the Hebei Provincial Committee and the provincial government's upcoming
congratulatory "Tailong Mountain Road" 10th anniversary of a series of activities, Science and Technology Daily sent reporters to Taitangshan development activities organized a series of reports. At that time, the reporter in the former Nanxuan village located in Yantai City, Hebei Province, met with China's well-known water and soil preservation expert Yu Zongzhou, here engaged in small watershed management in the mountains for many years Li Baoguo.
li Baoguo and mountain governance, starting in the 1980s.
then, Hebei Agricultural University and a number of agricultural and for forest institutions of teachers and researchers out of the school gate, to account for 62% of the total area of Hebei Province in the mountains, the establishment of three combined production, research and development base. By this call, the then 23-year-old Li Baoguo to work only ten days, then head into the Taihing mountains, to start mountain governance.
since then, Li Baoguo's fate has been closely linked to the mountains.
1986, Li Baoguo entered the sparsely populated village of Wanglong County, Baoding City, Hebei Province, with the national key research topic "Taihangshan high-efficiency afforestation and greening supporting technology research" task force. Together with his colleagues in the task force, he overcame the practical difficulties of mountain valley depth and wind meal sleeping, and traveled through all the mountains in the central area of the project to obtain first-hand data.
Combined with the situation of Wanglong Village and Qiannanyu Village, Li Baoguo carried out a technical study of blasting and land consolidation in the two villages in order to solve the problems of thin soil layer, poor soil and lack of water in the low mountainous areas of Taixian Mountain.
not long after, Li Baoguo and other experts and professors to take the "land-building in the mountains" approach, successfully gathered soil and water flow. The soil and water in the former Nanxuan village are thick, and the survival rate of trees has jumped from 10% to 90%.
Today, the former Nanxuan village is one of the greenest places in Taihangshan, with a forest coverage rate of 90.7% and vegetation coverage of 94.6%, and has been nominated for the "500 Best of global Ecological Environment Construction", known as a bright "pearl" of Taihangshan.
During his work in Taixian Mountain, Li Baoguo has won 1 third prize for national scientific and technological progress, 7 second prizes for scientific and technological progress at the provincial and ministerial levels, and 9 prizes for scientific and technological progress at the provincial and ministerial levels;August 1996, a heavy rain swept through Taitung Mountain.
heavy rain, Li Baoguo and others formed a scientific and technological disaster relief mission, from the south to the north to inspect the local disaster situation. A group of people came to the village of Gangding in Inner Qiu County and found that the village was already a mess. The village's only more than 250 acres of farmland were all washed away, the village when the family, the village branch book Yang Shuangn cow eyes tearful, led the village to declare war on the desert mountains.
this situation makes Li Baoguo sad. He wrote down his contact information on someone else's discarded cigarette box and handed it to Yang Shuangnu: "When it's built into a road to the back mountain, you can contact me." "
half a month after the attack, Li Baoguo's phone rang, and that's Yang Shuangnu. " Mr. Li, come on, we fixed the road! Yang Shuangnu said.
half a month can actually build a few kilometers of mountain road, at first Li Baoguo can not believe. When hurried to the village, he was very moved, but also very excited - there is such a good family, why worry about post-disaster reconstruction!
, Li Baoguo and members of the task force decided to move into the village. After investigating more than 8000 acres of mountains in the village, Li Baoguo came up with a "tailor-made" Apple pollution-free management plan for the village.
Li Baoguo likes Yang Shuangnu to call him "bar-head monitor", just as Yang Shuang-niu also likes Li Baoguo to call him "bar-head commander", because both officers are more true.
to do it, we'll have to listen to Mr. Li. "Commander of the Barhead, " Yang Shuangnu said to the whole village.
"to get the technology in place, we have to show them first, and then take them with them." "In order to implement apple bag technology, Li Baoguo out of his own pocket to buy 160,000 fruit bags, hand-in-hand to teach farmers to use, in the province's first to put bags on apples. Until autumn, the bag tore, a few days later the apple red eye-catching, per kilogram can sell to more than 30 yuan.
" agricultural production can not only rely on teachers with apprentices, we must take the road of modernization, standardization. "Li Baoguo felt that orchards should produce standard fruits under standard processes, just like industrial pipelines. From bags, bags, fruit transfer, to leaf picking, reflective film, fertilization ... In the end, Li Baoguo created 128 apple production management processes.
people still relish the high price of a single 100 yuan apple made in 2000 by this "industrialization process". Today, the villagers of The Village of Gangdy have raised their per capita annual income from less than 80 yuan to 25,000 yuan.the hand of science and technology, "dot stone into gold" miracle, in the Taishan mountains continue to stage.
in the rocky, grassy Phoenix Ridge area of Lincheng County, Hebei Province, Li Baoguo spent 10 years to create a high-quality thin-skin walnut green high-efficiency cultivation technology system. Today, the "Green Ridge" brand of thin-skin walnuts, has been planted in the local 200,000 mu, the walnut industry annual output value of more than 2 billion yuan.
"What the people need, I'll study and teach them." Turn me into a farmer, turn a farmer into me. "That's what Li Baoguo used to say.
Li Baoguo is really like a farmer. He is less than one meter seven, dark-skinned, bearded and looks amiable. According to taishan farmers said: "Mr. Li looked very earthy, not a pay attention to people, what to eat, what to do." He always had a saw and a big scissors around his waist, asked what to teach, didn't have a little shelf, didn't look like a big professor, looked like our village people. In
farmer's mouth, there is almost no "Li Baoguo" three words, we prefer to call him "Mr. Li", or he is "the god of science and technology." In the first month, families invite "Mr. Li" to dinner, he sometimes has to go to 6 villagers a day.
time outside the village because of traffic jams, Li Baoguo's car can not drive in, the villagers even removed the wall of their own yard, for him to open up roads. Think of these, Li Baoguo's heart often springs up a hot stream.
More than 200 days a year in the mountains, 35 years of unremitting work, Li Baoguo demonstration and promotion of 36 standardized forestry technology, held more than 800 training courses, training more than 90,000 people, demonstration and promotion of a total area of 10.8 million mu, a cumulative application area of 18.26 million mu, a cumulative increase in agricultural output value of 3.53 billion yuan, a net increase of 2.85 billion yuan.
li Baoguo developed diabetes in 1998 and was diagnosed with fatigue coronary heart disease in 2007 due to chronic overwork, but he ran to the mountains with a variety of medications. More than four months before his death, he spent less than 10 days at home.
autumn wind blowing through the hills, the fruit hung full of branches. Gangdi village, full of mountains of apple trees exude a seductive fruit fragrance, although more than 3 years have passed, but a mention of Li Baoguo, the village is still difficult to hide the old and young miss. Yang Shuangnu cried and said: "I miss Miss Li, I this orchard, you say which piece of land, which tree, he knows." ”
