  The Spring Festival is less than a month away, and Chen Kaiwen, a large grower in Rongchang, Chongqing, is busy feeding crayfish in the rice fields.

In order to achieve the goal of using one water for multiple purposes, Chen Kaiwen began to try the comprehensive farming of rice and shrimp in 2022. He has raised nearly 300 mu of crayfish in the rice fields after the rice harvest. He hopes to catch up with the Spring Festival and sell them at a good price. .

  Against the background of the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing economic circle, in March 2021, Chongqing Rongchang and Sichuan Neijiang Longchang will join hands to build the "Shuangchang" agricultural industrial park, creating a modern and efficient agricultural belt in Chongqing.

The industrial park is composed of "seven towns and one street" including Anfu Street, Panlong Town, Longji Town, Ronglong Town, Longchang City, Shiyanqiao Town, Hujia Town, Jieshi Town and Purun Town in Rongchang District. The total planned area of ​​the park is 196,000 mu, including 101,000 mu in Rongchang and 95,000 mu in Longchang.

  The paddy field where Chen Kaiwen raises crayfish is located in Putuo Village, Anfu Street, Rongchang, which is the pioneer area of ​​the "Shuangchang" Industrial Park.

"For me, the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing economic circle means new development opportunities." Chen Kaiwen is a native of Rongchang, who has been engaged in grain and oil planting and agricultural machinery promotion in the past.

After the launch of the "Shuangchang" Agricultural Industrial Park, he came to Putuo Village to develop the comprehensive shrimp and rice farming industry through land transfer.

  "The expert teams from Sichuan Academy of Agricultural Sciences and Sichuan Agricultural University will come to provide technical guidance on a regular basis, and I, a layman, can also become an expert in shrimp farming." Chen Kaiwen said that Longchang rice and fishery comprehensive farming industry has been developed for many years and has rich experience for his reference. Learning, coupled with Sichuan's expert guidance, he is full of confidence in the future.

  According to reports, the "Shuangchang" Agricultural Industrial Park carries out industrial layout in accordance with the development ideas of the cultivation and breeding cycle of camellia oleifera (tea garden) on slope pig farms, the rotation of sorghum and rapeseed in dry land, and the comprehensive cultivation and breeding of rice and fish in paddy fields, and implements "production + technology + processing + service" "Integrated development involves more than 30 construction tasks such as road traffic, high-standard farmland, smart rice and fishing bases, smart demonstration pig farms, integration of agriculture and tourism, technological innovation, agricultural product processing and logistics, and the construction of beautiful new villages.

The industrial park breaks through the boundaries of administrative divisions, and explores cross-regional cooperation models and innovations in systems and mechanisms that complement each other, coordinate industries, share resources, superimpose policies, and win-win cooperation.

  Zhang Yijun, deputy secretary of the Agricultural and Rural Work Committee of the Rongchang District Committee of Chongqing, said that the integrated rice and fishery farming industry is the primary direction of cooperation for the "Shuangchang" Agricultural Industrial Park.

The two sides will build a rice-fishing comprehensive planting and breeding base, build a "multi-in-one" rice-fishing industry model, break through the traditional farming model of the four major fishes, and develop rice-fishing, rice shrimp, rice crab, rice soft-shelled turtle, rice loach and other comprehensive rice-fishing products. Planting and breeding models, optimizing the structure of aquatic products, and jointly creating the "Shuangchang" rice and fishery public brand.

It is planned that by the end of 2025, 44,000 mu of rice and fishery comprehensive planting and breeding industrial bases will be upgraded and newly built.

  Rongchang pig is a gold-lettered signboard of Chongqing's animal husbandry industry, and the scale of pig breeding in Sichuan Province ranks at the forefront of the country. How to cooperate to strengthen the pig industry?

At present, Rongchang is taking the lead and is working with relevant cities and counties in Sichuan to strengthen the industrial chain and empower the construction of the twin-city economic circle in the Chengdu-Chongqing area.

  In the national pig big data center located in Rongchang District, on the electronic screen of the intelligent pig farm breeding monitoring, you can see the real-time situation of Daifuzhen pig farm in Mianyang, Sichuan.

Through these visual information, pig farmers can judge the health status of pigs in the first time.

The full name of this set of equipment is the National Intelligent Livestock and Poultry Breeding (Pig) Pilot Area Project, which provides intelligent solutions for small and medium-sized breeding enterprises across the country, especially small and medium-sized farmers in Sichuan and Chongqing.

  Qin Youping, deputy director of the National Pig Big Data Center in Rongchang District, said that the center, in conjunction with the Sichuan Animal Husbandry General Station and the Chongqing Animal Husbandry General Station, has established 34 data collection points in large-scale breeding enterprises, slaughtering enterprises, and farmers’ markets in Sichuan and Chongqing, and compiled the Sichuan and Chongqing Animal Husbandry General Station. Chongqing can breed sow index, Chongqing can multiply sow index, Chongqing slaughter index and other data information.

Since 2021, Sichuan and Chongqing have shared nearly 120 million pieces of pig industry data, installing a "digital engine" for the development of the pig industry in Sichuan and Chongqing.

  Qin Youping said that in the next step, the center plans to set up 10 regional centers of the National Pig Big Data Center in the Chengdu-Chongqing twin-city economic circle in Suining, Sichuan, and Wanzhou, Chongqing. Digital products such as the certificate system have been put into use in Sichuan and Chongqing, empowering the development of the pig industry in Sichuan and Chongqing.

At the same time, a cooperation mechanism for the construction of the National Pig Big Data Center in the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle will be established to form a new development pattern for the joint construction of the National Pig Big Data Center.
