As The Spring Festival Approaches, The National Modern Agricultural Industrial Park In Kaiyuan City, Honghe Hani And Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Is Brimming With Vitality

As the Spring Festival approaches, the National Modern Agricultural Industrial Park in Kaiyuan City, Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture, is brimming with vitality. Phalaenopsis orchids are delicate and charming, like dancing fairies, while roses are fragrant and passionate, resembling fiery elves. These much - favored New Year flowers are in full bloom, marking the official arrival of the peak picking and sales season in the park. In recent years, the National Modern Agricultural Industrial Park in Kaiyuan City has been committed to building a benchmark for the modern flower industry and has achieved leapfrog development with the help of science and technology. In terms of intelligent operation, advanced Internet of Things technology has been introduced. A large number of sensors are installed in the park to monitor key data such as soil moisture, temperature, light intensity, and air composition in real - time. This data is accurately transmitted to the central control system, which automatically adjusts irrigation systems, sun - shading facilities, and ventilation equipment according to pre - set optimal parameters, ensuring that the flowers are always in the most suitable growth environment. For example, when the sensor detects that the soil moisture is lower than the set value, the high - efficiency water - saving irrigation system will be activated immediately to accurately replenish water to the flowers. This not only realizes the rational use of water resources but also avoids the adverse effects on flower growth caused by over - watering or under - watering.

Currently, the coverage rate of high - efficiency water - saving irrigation has reached an excellent 100%. The research and development of germplasm resources and the breeding of seedlings are the core competitiveness of the flower industry. The park has actively cooperated with well - known domestic and foreign scientific research institutions and universities to form a scientific research team composed of senior experts and professional technicians. They focus on the cultivation of new flower varieties, using cutting - edge technologies such as gene editing and cross - breeding, and have successfully cultivated several new Phalaenopsis and rose varieties with independent intellectual property rights. These new varieties are not only unique in flower color and shape but also have stronger resistance to diseases and pests and better adaptability to different environments. For instance, a new Phalaenopsis variety developed has large and brightly colored flowers and can still maintain good growth in a low - temperature environment, greatly extending the viewing period. In the seedling breeding process, the park has adopted advanced tissue - culture technology to achieve large - scale and standardized seedling production. By strictly controlling conditions such as temperature, light, and nutrient composition during tissue culture, the high - quality and consistent growth characteristics of each seedling are ensured. This efficient seedling - breeding method not only meets the park's own planting needs but also provides high - quality seedlings for flower growers in the surrounding areas, strongly promoting the development of the local flower industry.

Thanks to the deep empowerment of science and technology, the park has achieved a double harvest in flower yield and quality. It is expected that during this year's New Year flower sales period, 15 million cut flowers and 2 million potted flowers will be sold, with an estimated total output value of 50 million yuan. These flowers are transported to flower markets across the country through a complete logistics and distribution system, bringing the best New Year's wishes to thousands of households. The successful practice of the National Modern Agricultural Industrial Park in Kaiyuan City provides valuable experience for the development of China's flower industry. It not only improves the economic benefits of the local flower industry but also injects strong impetus into rural revitalization, driving employment in the surrounding areas and promoting farmers' income increase. It is believed that with the continuous promotion of science and technology, the flower industry in Kaiyuan will shine more brightly and contribute more to the high - quality development of China's flower industry.
