The spring holiday was just over, in the village of lanhai, a small town of choo-tao, yu yao city, where the full-blown tomato season began. Red, yellow, green, purple, white and five-coloured fruit is full of branches, adding a full “rich” view to the field. After 85, the farmers, who took their mother to the farm for 10 years, planted the rainbow fruit with new ideas and technologies, not only to make the spring harvest “hot” of the economy, but also to revive the hopes of the country in the aroma of clay。

Strawberry tomatoes
They entered the farm shed as if they had set foot in a blistering tomato kingdom. And the vines are full of twilight tomatoes, red as manau, yellow as amber, green as emerald. Zhou jianli is traveling, moving so skilfully to harvest ripe fruits and with the joy of harvest on her face. She enthusiastically introduced journalists to the new species that we're testing this year: "this is the new strawberry tomato that we've introduced, and it's hot in ningbo, and we'd like to try it. This tomato skin is thin, and it's sour and sweet, and it tastes like tomatoes when we were kids."
In order to ensure that every tomato had a remarkable taste and stable quality, zhou ji-ryi had worked hard on the management of the plant. From planting in the fall until spring, cuttings, stings and chickens depend on manual precision for almost every process. The soil is improved by biobacterium, organic fertilisers are re-established and high-strength cultivation is carried out. Each year from june to october, the farm gives the land a rest and rest, effectively reducing the disease through shabby disposal。

White tomatoes
Zhou jianli pointed at the vines and told the reporters that tomatoes, although they were infinity growing plants, could theoretically continue to produce results, but she insisted that they should be kept only on each vine. “in order to ensure a sense of mouth, we usually keep only the five ears. Because tomatoes in the canopy are the most amazing, where nutrients are concentrated and where sugar and flavor accumulate. If it's more than five ears, the quality behind it is less stable." she preferred to reduce the harvest properly and to keep the accent on the tip of the tongue。

Zhou ji-li is making a basket of tomatoes
Since taking over the farm, she has been actively working with seed companies to screen high-quality varieties, which now number more than 10. At the same time, she has made bold innovations in planting patterns, successfully stretching the tomato harvest cycle through faulty planting and scientific matching。
“we keep planting and listing as long as possible. We were listed from march to may in previous years, and this year we tried to start doing so by the end of february, hoping to extend the marketing period to june.” zhou jung-li said, "this will give more people who love tomatoes and longer time to taste them."
