Study On The Development Of Minor Grain Crops Industry In Yan’an

Minor grain crops, the commonly known of minor food crops. Featured by short growth period, small cultivation sacle, strong regional characteristics, special planting method and possessed special functions. Included four typical categories, one is grains(Mi corn, buckwheat, oats and barley et al), the second type is mixed beans(such as black beans, soy beans, chickpeas, kidney beans, broad beans, peas), the third is minor tuber crops(sweet potato) and the last is small oil crops, such as perilla shooted andmustard. Due to it resistant to drought and barren, well-adapted, eutrophy, medicinal and edible, long-storage. Up to now, acted as a very important ecological crops in Yan’an areas. Played a irreplaceable role of realized the food self-sufficiency, control soil erosion, and reducing soil erosion.Research shows, minor grain crops, it is a traditional main grain that was planted in Yan’an. And widely distributed, owned the production advantages. With regional advantages, such as vast land, soil deep, sufficient sunlight, a large temperature difference, rainfall concentrated. Owing to the small grains grown in more pollution-free, industrial underdeveloped areas, and no pesticide, the minor grain products of Yan’an had a high quality advantage. Currently, the type of minor grain crops in Yan’an areas was as follows, millet, broom corn millet, mung beans, black beans, cowpea, red bean, kidney bean, buckwheat, et al. Possessed obvious geographical advantages and industrial advantages, and these are the tradtional grain crops and major commercial crops. Play a vital role in the self-sufficient and the economic prosperity and development of rural areas. The county of Ansai located in the north of Yan’an, have an edge of fertile land, favorable climate, and the habit of planting minor grain crops. Unfortunately, with the enlargement of the planting area of corn, potato and the policy of grain for green was carried out, the planting area of small grainsreduced gradually. In order to improve the small grains production and economic benefits, applied the measures of demonstration extend the excellent species, base construction and the application of cultivation technology, nurturing the product brand and geographical indication, science and technology training and support from the minor grain crops processing enterprises. The minor grain crops gradually took to the trend of industrialization development trend. In Yan’an areas, the production of minor grain crops has made a development. For a long time, because of the small scale of planting, and the backward technology of cultivation, low modernization, mixed varieties, the product is single and unevenness quality, low degree of marketization, industry system is defective, low levels of science and technology popularization of small cereals industrial restricting the development of small cereals industrial. Research suggested that made a project suited to the local conditions, optimized layout, improved generation power, bring in and breeding new cultivar, strengthen the consciousness of characteristics and the implementation of brand strategy, improved the comprehensive utilization of resource and created high product added values, implement the strategy of high-end monopoly, enhancing the added value of the concentration of various types of grain products, built a perfect grain industry technology and service system, applied the suitable agricultural technology and science strategic measures. Take the high-technology and high level of agricultural production technology and scientific management as the planting strategy, go to great lengths to development the utilization of minor grain crops industry, promote the industrialization development of main grain crops, it play an important role for the whole economic development of Yan’an regions, and it will bring a huge economic benefit, social benefit and ecological benefit, the sustainable development of minor grain crops industrial will be realized.
