Author Chu Weiwei
With a thin body, a capable short hair, and a pair of smart eyes, it is difficult to equate this fashionable post-80s woman with a "farmer".
But she is indeed a "modern farmer" who has been dealing with dragon fruit cultivation for six years. She knows when to fertilize dragon fruit and how many dragon fruit trees should be planted in one acre. She is Guangxi Jinfu Agriculture Co., Ltd. Su Xiuqing, president of the company.

In the eyes of others, Su Xiuqing is a "rich second generation" who has nothing to worry about.
Born in the 1980s, Su Xiuqing was born in Quanzhou, Fujian. His father Su Jingchang started his business from Fujian to Nanning, Guangxi in his early years. The company he founded has become a leading enterprise in Guangxi. After a lot of hard work, Su Jingchang has become a more famous local entrepreneur.
If Su Xiuqing wants to be a traditional woman with husband and child, she can lead a prosperous life carefree.
However, since childhood, Su Xiuqing, who had been unwilling to admit defeat, gave up his comfortable life and chose to grow dragon fruit in Long'an County, Nanning City, Guangxi.

Recently, Su Xiuqing introduced at the dragon fruit base: "How do you plant the fruit seedlings at the beginning? At that time, there was no place to learn, and no one could tell me how to do it. We crossed the river by feeling the stones and fell a lot. I really feel that farming is very difficult."

In the early days of the business, due to insufficient funds, the orchard was not equipped with straw mats. After a few spring rains, weeds grew in the orchard, and the fruit-bearing cycle was extended twice as long, resulting in heavy losses.
But Su Xiuqing did not give up. In order to raise funds for laying straw mats, she mortgaged her real estate and two cars. When a dozen or so guarantors and bank staff sat in a meeting room to sign the guarantee agreement, Su Xiuqing’s father Knowing that her daughter chose to take up a 4.5 million yuan loan by herself, she also understood her determination to start a business.

In terms of planting technology, Su Xiuqing initially wanted to learn from Taiwan’s "exquisite agriculture" planting experience, but soon discovered that "Taiwan experience" was not suitable for large-scale dragon fruit planting.
Su Xiuqing's team began to develop bent-frame planting and build concrete pillars on the ground.
"What's the height of the pillars? What's the spacing? The dragon fruit turns out to be very heavy. How do you ensure that it won't fall easily when planted? These have posed many problems for us."

When starting to build a large area of cement pillars, Su Xiuqing found that he could not find a cement pillar suitable for dragon fruit cultivation in Nanning.
Because the quantity is too small, the local cement plant does not accept orders for special mold opening and processing of cement columns.
Faced with difficulties, Su Xiuqing had to find another way.
However, she later discovered that if the cement pillars are transported from other places, they need to bear the expensive transportation costs. Su Xiuqing decided to open a site in the dragon fruit base and persuade the company that makes the cement pillars to move the team that produces and process the cement pillars to the dragon fruit base. After more than a month of running-in and adjustment with the team, a cement column suitable for pitaya planting was finally produced.

Su Xiuqing is not only an entrepreneur, but also plays the multiple roles of daughter, wife, and mother.
Choosing to start a business means sacrificing time with family members.
Her husband once asked her whether it was worth it, and her daughter complained that her mother had too little time with her.
Su Xiuqing said frankly: "I hope I can be a qualified mother, but I can't do it. Before the epidemic, I traveled often and couldn't accompany my daughter."
Facing the pressure of family and the doubts of friends, Su Xiuqing chose to prove himself with his achievements silently, and constantly innovated the technology of dragon fruit planting.
Introduce Israel's drip irrigation water and fertilizer integration technology, scientifically observe the changes of trace elements in the soil, and analyze the influence of factors such as yin and yang, light-receiving, and wind directions in different areas on dragon fruit planting, combining theory with field experience, and adapting measures to local conditions. Fertilization is accurate enough to be comparable to infant formula.

Su Xiuqing implanted industrial concepts into agricultural production.
She set up 500,000 flower reminders in the dragon fruit base to extend the fruit-bearing period of the dragon fruit.
When night falls, the 500,000 fascinating lanterns are like stars scattered on the earth, which makes Su Xiuqing unexpectedly become the maker of romantic night scenes.
Nowadays, the dragon fruit produced by Su Xiuqing's team has a yield of more than 6000 kg per mu, and the planting area of dragon fruit in the base has reached 5,500 mu. It has become the largest red-hearted dragon fruit planting base in Guangxi.

Su Xiuqing said: "I am not a person who concedes defeat easily. I don't want to turn my bow back. I don't want to be defeated by a few cynicism and a little setback. Now that I have done it, I hope to do well." Come out in the middle and open up your own world.
