Xinzhou, Shanxi is a famous capital of minor grains. What small grains are there?

? In 20 14, Xinzhou was named "coarse grain capital of China" by China Grain Industry Association, with more than 14 geographical indications for agricultural products certification.

? Xinzhou is located in the north-central part of Shanxi, only 80 kilometers away from Taiyuan, the provincial capital. The famous battle of Xinkou was fought in Xinkou, Xinfu District. Xinzhou belongs to 14 county, and it is also the largest prefecture-level city in Shanxi, and it straddles the east and west sides of Shanxi, bordering Shaanxi Province in the west and Hebei Province in the east. There is Wutai Mountain, a holy place of Buddhism, so it is easy to understand that it must be a high-altitude area, which is precisely this characteristic that Xinzhou has very good conditions for planting all kinds of small miscellaneous grains.

Xinzhou is called the capital of miscellaneous grains mainly because of its three advantages, namely, grains, beans, fresh corn and potatoes.

Cereals refer to millet, naked oats and quinoa. Xiaomi refers to Xiaomi and Xiaomi. It is understood that due to high altitude, many dry fields, many hills and little rainfall, the millet produced here is golden and full, and it is also one of the best areas for planting millet, mainly including Jingu 2 1, Zhangzagu 3, Zhangzagu 6, 10, 13. The millet in Shenchi County and Pianguan County is very famous, so the local oil cakes are also famous. Quinoa was introduced into Jingle County in October-February. This absolute plateau crop took root and blossomed here, and the trial planting was successful. In 20 13, it was named "the hometown of quinoa in China". Since planting, its quality is incomparable in other areas.

Beans refer to red kidney beans, broad beans and peas. Similarly, because of the higher terrain, more dry days and more hills, more beans are planted here. In particular, the red kidney bean in kelan county has formed a planting system, with excellent quality, mainly used for export, and its downstream industrial chain has also been completed, which is the main crop for farmers to get rich.

Fresh corn is mainly in Xinfu District and Dingxiang County, where the land is flat and the watering is convenient. Moreover, the director of Shanxi Corn Research Institute is here, with a large planting area and complete processing facilities. After processing, it is stored in vacuum, which is convenient for sale and becomes the main agricultural industry in the local area.

Potatoes refer to potatoes and sweet potatoes. Potatoes are mainly produced in Shenchi, Wuzhai, Pianguan, Jingle and Kelan in west eight County, where the land is vast and sparsely populated, there are many mountains and sandy soil, which is very suitable for potato planting with high yield and good quality. Potatoes here are often sold all over the province and around Shaanxi and Hebei. In recent years, with the change of industrial structure, the potato industry has become specialized, forming a high-standard potato planting scale.

In addition to these four kinds of minor grains, other minor grains in Xinzhou are also comprehensive, such as flax planting and yellow mustard planting, which are the most in this province and the quality is also high in the whole country. The oil yield of flax in Shenchi is above 35%, and the oil pressing technology is also unusual. Unsaturated fatty acids in oil can account for more than 60%, so there is a saying that you should buy oil and go to Shenchi. At the same time, there are some castor and pockmarked plants.

? After reading the introduction, do you think Xinzhou is still the hometown of small grains? Friends from all over the world are also welcome to visit Xinzhou, see the small grains in the mountains and taste the rice cooked by the small grains. This is comforting.
