Introduction: on October 7, Beijing, China Radio Network (reporter Li Zhengxiang intern reporter Jia Yichao correspondent Lang Fengjie) as the saying goes, "White Dew is early, cold dew is late, and it's just right around the autumnal equinox." The golden week is also a good time for autumn harvest and planting Wang Yongping's family, a farmer in Yanqing, Beijing, is particularly busy This year, his four mu of "small corn" will have a good harvest again The corn variety Wang Yongping planted can produce three or four small corn Each corn is generally about 10 cm, golden black, and some are purple The biggest feature of this kind of small corn is that it is not eaten as a food crop, but after being processed, it is put into the exhibition hall as a handicraft or purchased by consumers Its main value is to enjoy rather than eat This kind of handicraft has a certain market demand in many places, and a considerable part of it will be shipped abroad for sale In balidian village, Shenjiaying Town, Yanqing County, Beijing, there are six small corn farmers like Wang Yongping, each with an area of about three mu The reporter found Zhang Guihua in the field, who was busy collecting the corn According to her introduction, this kind of corn is time-saving and labor-saving The planting density is very large It is planted in the middle and first ten days of May and harvested in the middle and first ten days of October every year The length of corn required by the merchant's purchase must be between 7 and 12 cm Wang Yongping's wife told reporters that the village has planted more than 20 mu of small corn, and other villages also have some farmers This kind of small corn management does not need a lot of energy Each fixed price is a dime, and one mu of land can earn about 1000 yuan, and each mu can earn 2300 yuan more than the usual corn However, because the market demand for this kind of corn is relatively small, there is no large-scale promotion at present In addition, this kind of corn does not need to be peeled when harvesting, and is easy to break If the planting area is wide, the factory will directly harvest it in the field during the autumn harvest It is reported that this kind of corn, after being processed and polished, is made into a kind of handicraft called "dried flower" Some of it is transported to Beijing and other provinces and cities for sale, and some of it is purchased by some foreign businesses
