4. Gaolan soft pear
Soft pear, also known as flower heart and perfume, is the favorite pear in severe winter. Its fragrance, mellow sweetness, cold, refreshing and refreshing.
Gaolan soft pear, also known as flower heart and perfume, is the favorite pear in severe winter. Its fragrance, mellow, cold, refreshing and refreshing make people feel refreshed and happy at once. No wonder Yu Youren, a veteran of 1, compared it with grapes. "sharpening grapes is the sweetest, and ice and snow are soft pears." The most interesting thing is that Gaolan Ruaner pear has a unique eating method, and the fresh fruit turns into a "brown egg" when stored in 1 winter, with better flavor.
Gaolan soft pear has a long history of cultivation. In the 18th year of Guangxu reign in Qing dynasty (1892), Zhang Guochang's Rebuilding the Records of Gaolan County recorded that "Xiangli, with its common name Ruaner, is bluish yellow in autumn and slightly sour in taste, turns soft and black when stored in late winter and early spring, and its meat is pulp and sweet as honey". The geographical range of origin of Gaolan Ruaner pear is from east longitude103 32' to north latitude/. Gaolan Ruaner Pear is mainly produced in Shichuan Town, which is known as "the first ancient pear garden in the world", and is also planted in Xicha Town, Heishichuan Township, Shuifu Township, Zhonghe Town and Jiuhe Town. Shichuan Town is only 1.400 meters above sea level, with pleasant climate and fertile land. Since the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, it has been a "tree row". During the Kangxi period, trees were planted on a large scale, and now there are nearly 5,000 mu of pear orchards, including 7,000 soft pear trees. Gaolan Ruaner pear belongs to Qiuzi pear strain of Rosaceae, with strong growth potential, early fruiting, long life, cold and drought resistance, barren tolerance, strong adaptability, many fruits and good quality. The uniqueness of Gaolan Ruaner pear is that the longer the tree age, the thinner the pulp and peel, and the better the quality. There are 300-year-old pear trees in Sichuan, which can produce 200 to 400 kilograms a year. The highest yield of Gaolan soft pear tree can reach 800 kg in full fruit period, with an average yield of 250 kg. The annual output of soft pear trees in Gaolan is about 1 10000 kg.
The fruit of Gaolan Ruaner pear is nearly round, with an average fruit weight of about 125g, and it matures in late autumn and early winter. When just harvested, the color is blue in yellow, red in green, and the flesh is hard and slightly sour. Fresh pears will be pale yellow if they are heated with wheat straw for more than "sweating" 10 days, so the skin is thin and soft, and sweet and sour are suitable. Then, pick out the intact pears and store them in pits or indoor wooden shelves. After more than 40 days, the pulp cells were fermented and softened, the peel turned brown and turned back to sand, and the fruit flavor became sweet. This period is called "changing heart" or "sugar heart". If stored in February and March of the following year, it tastes better. As the climate gets colder, fruits are frozen like stones, and they can't be melted even if they are eaten hastily. If you use fire, its taste will turn sour and lose its original taste. It needs to be placed in a warm place and naturally melted or soaked in cold water. After about ten minutes, the ice shell will solidify its surface, and then take it out. Pears are soft as mud, full of pulp, sweeter than honey and full of wine. Tear off the epidermis when eating, take a sip with your mouth, and a packet of juice like sugar and honey will melt in your mouth immediately. The drink is sweet and delicious, cool and fragrant, refreshing and memorable. The so-called "thin skin and a bag of hydrated meat turn into mud", therefore, Gaolan soft pear is also called "fragrant pear". Mr. Yu Youren once wrote a poem: "Soft pears in the ice and snow are the first wonder of the melon and fruit city. If people full of trees don't take it, the fragrance will turn into mud. " As for the folklore, it is called Gaolan Ruaner Pear "fairy flavor in the sky, ganoderma lucidum grass on earth", which has simply become a fairy fruit.
Gaolan Ruaner pear is not only unique in flavor, but also rich in nutritional value. It contains many ingredients such as fruit acid, malic acid, citric acid, sucrose and glucose. Its soluble solids are generally around 13%, so its nutritional value is extremely high. Li Shizhen said in Compendium of Materia Medica that Ruaner pear has the functions of moistening lung, cooling heart, resolving phlegm, reducing fire, healing sore and poisoning wine. If you eat too greasy food, feel upset with your stomach, or get drunk, dizzy, or have a fever, headache, cough and dry mouth, feel unwell all over, or suffer from gas poisoning, dizziness and nausea ... eating a few soft pears with high orchids or drinking a few mouthfuls of fruit juice will relieve your illness to some extent.
Gaolan soft pear has a long history of cultivation and is a characteristic and advantageous agricultural product in this county. For a long time, Shichuan people have a lot of experience in pear tree protection. The combination of ancient maintenance methods such as peeling bark and "spreading sand to kill insects" with advanced and practical technologies, coupled with unique grafting and pruning techniques, has made pear trees constantly rejuvenate. 201212 On February 24th, Shichuan Town was awarded the title of "National Ecological Township" by the Ministry of Environmental Protection. On April 2013 12, Shichuan Ancient Pear Garden was certified as "the world's first ancient pear garden" by Guinness; May 2, 20654381day was named as "the first batch of national important agricultural cultural heritage" by the Ministry of Agriculture. Gaolan County established the world's first ancient pear orchard protection bureau, revised the Provisions on the Protection of the Old Pear Orchard in Ishikawa, completed the filing and listing of 9082 existing pear trees in a century, and realized one tree, one certificate and follow-up management.

8. Gaolan Heshangtou Wheat
Wheat Boutique "Monk Head"
"Heshangtou" is one of the high-quality wheat planted in the dry area of Beishan, Gaolan. It is drought-resistant, disease-resistant and pollution-free, and contains many nutrients needed by human body, such as protein, high gluten and good taste. According to legend, it was once a royal tribute in the Ming and Qing Dynasties and enjoyed a high reputation in the northwest. Folk use "monk's head" wheat flour to make "longevity noodles" and "cooking pot" is a favorite food of Lanzhou people. The history of planting "Heshangtou" wheat in Gaolan began in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, and it has a history of more than 500 years. According to the Records of Lanzhou City and Agriculture, "wheat was planted in Lanzhou 5000 years ago, and the output of wheat in Han Dynasty was second only to millet". Before the Ming Dynasty, wheat cultivation in Lanzhou was limited to the suburbs of the city. The vast areas north of Lanzhou, namely Gaolan, Yongdeng Qinwangchuan, Jingtai and Baiyin, have been inhabited by Qiang, Rong, Xiongnu, Xianbei, Tubo and Mongolia, mainly nomadic.
"At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the famine was serious, the people died and were displaced, and most of the land was deserted and no one cultivated it." "From the third year of Hongwu in Ming Taizu (1370) to the twenty-third year (1389), there was a scene of wasteland reclamation in Zhuanglangwei and other places in Gansu, with a bumper harvest of millet and wheat, and the price of rice decreased day by day, reaching 500 yuan per stone."
Planting wheat in the early Ming Dynasty is not the "monk's head" now. The current "Heshangtou" wheat is the product of long-term selection of natural conditions and breeding of wheat varieties by working people under the natural environment of dry climate and strong sunshine in Gaolan. Since the Yuan Dynasty, the climate in Gaolan has become drier and drier. According to the meteorological observation records since liberation, the average annual precipitation in Gaolan is 266 mm, and the annual evaporation is 1.807 mm, which is 7 times of the precipitation. The precipitation in Gaolan is mostly concentrated in July, August and September, accounting for 80% of the annual precipitation. The average relative humidity is 54%, the absolute humidity is 6.6 mbar and the dryness is 1.89. Drought is the main disastrous weather that affects agricultural production. According to data analysis, six years in the average decade are late spring and early summer, and there is an average summer drought every two years. The probability of drought is 87%. This is consistent with the folk proverb "Nine droughts in ten years". Another feature of the climate in Gaolan County is strong light. Average sunshine hours are above 5℃ 32 16.6℃, 10℃ above 2802℃, and frost-free period 144 days. Survival of the fittest is the law of biological evolution. "Heshangtou" wheat is an excellent wheat selected by natural selection in the 500-year cultivation history.
"Heshangtou" wheat belongs to the genus Panicum in Gramineae, with developed root system and fibrous root system, and the taproot can be buried more than 300 cm. Secondary rooting is mostly concentrated in 20 cm ~50 cm topsoil, which is beneficial to fully absorb the water and nutrients needed for its growth. The stem is erect and hollow, and consists of 4~6 growth nodes. In new sandy land and normal rainfall year, the tillering rate of "Heshangtou" wheat can exceed 10%. The tillering leaflets are narrow, with no wax powder, the plant height is 122 cm, and there are 2 ~3 flowers in the spike and spikelet. The spike is awnless, conical and red in shell. Keep your mouth shut when you are ripe and don't drop seeds. The caryopsis is oval and red, and the wheat grains are small and slender. When sprouting, the bud sheath is hard, thick and long, and the sheath is pointed and sharp, like a cone, which can pierce the hard sand layer or clods, which is beneficial to drought-resistant deep sowing and early sowing. The high quality of "Heshangtou" wheat, especially the high protein content, is the result of assimilation and alienation of plant metabolism under strong light and large temperature difference between day and night. According to the determination by the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences and Gannong University, the 1000-grain weight of "Heshangtou" wheat is 35g, the whiteness of flour is 74.8 1%, the yellowness 15.9%, and the crude protein content 16.02%. The crude protein content of "Heshangtou" in Baipo, Daheng and Shiqing of Heishi Township is 18.54%, the lysine content is 0.54%, the dry gluten content is 13.9%, the wet gluten content is 37.05%, and the sediment content is 29.8%. Compared with other wheat varieties, crude protein is 2-4 percentage points higher, lysine is 0. 1-0.2 percentage points higher, and gluten content is 4-5 percentage points higher. "Heshangtou" is a kind of hard wheat with broken grains, glassy stubble and hardness of 14.9, which is also higher than other wheat. "Heshangtou" wheat has fine and sandy texture, less fiber, easy digestion and absorption, and good taste. It is the best raw material for making silver bars and steamed bread in Lanzhou. In 1970s, Mr. Guo Moruo, President of China Academy of Sciences, accompanied Cambodian Penm Nouth to visit the suburbs of Lanzhou. The villagers treated him with long noodles made of "monk's head", which was highly praised by Guo Moruo and baleno.
"Heshangtou" wheat has strong drought resistance, barren resistance and saline-alkali tolerance. It can also blossom and bear fruit in extremely dry soil with water content of only 5%~ 10%, and grow normally when the soil salt content does not exceed 0.3%. When sowing, the new sandy land does not need fertilization, and the middle sandy land can use chemical fertilizer (generally urea or ammonium nitrate per mu 10 kg). There is no need for topdressing during the growing period. Another characteristic of "Heshangtou" wheat is high efficiency, low cost and no pollution. The cost of producing a kilogram of "monk's head" is only about 0. 18 yuan, while the cost of rice and wheat is about 0.8 yuan. The market price of "Heshangtou" wheat is more than 30% higher than that of rice wheat. Because the cultivation of "Heshangtou" basically does not use chemical fertilizers and pesticides, it is pollution-free and is an out-and-out pollution-free green food.
"Heshangtou" wheat has always been the main variety of food crops in arid areas. In the 1950s, the county planted more than 200,000 mu, which increased to about 360,000 mu in the 1960s. With the development of water conservancy, the planting area of 1980 "Heshangtou" is still around 200,000 mu. After 1986, the planting area of "Heshangtou" is10 ~120,000 mu, with an average yield of about 75 kg per mu. Among them, the dry land "Heshangtou" wheat is 80,000 mu, and the average yield per mu is about 100 kg; 40,000 mu of early "Heshangtou" wheat, with an average yield of about 45 kg per mu.
Since the beginning of 2 1 century, the development of agriculture has been guided by market economy, from quantitative to quality and high efficiency. "Heshangtou" wheat will be the first choice for high-quality and efficient planting because of its high quality, high efficiency, low cost and no pollution. In planting technology, plastic film mulching and straw mulching can be developed on the basis of sand pressing mulching technology. Rainwater drip irrigation and sprinkler irrigation can stabilize the yield of "Heshangtou" at about 100 kg ~ 120 kg.
