On December 30, the reporter visited the Hangzhou “vegetable basket” base and farmers market to see the market. Is it easy to carry the citizen’s “vegetable basket”?

There are a total of 800 acres of greenhouse vegetables, planted with vegetables, hairy vegetables, spinach, etc. It is the largest “vegetable basket” base in Hangzhou. “Before the cold snap came, we set aside enough time for prevention work. The low temperature and the rain and snow did not have a great impact on the base’s production,” said staff member Fan Lihui.
In the workshop, only one box of vegetables was loaded into the car and will soon be shipped to Hema, China Resources Vanguard and other supermarket chains. “The daily market volume remains around 25 tons, basically the same as usual, and there is no problem with the supply,” Fan Lihui told reporters.
Three days before the arrival of the cold snap, under the direction of local agricultural and rural departments, the base deployed personnel to inspect related facilities and repair damaged greenhouses. In addition, to reduce the soil moisture, the staff also emptied the water from the trench in advance to prevent freezing of the vegetable roots due to the high soil moisture when the temperature dropped sharply.
Yang Xinqin, chief vegetable expert of the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, told reporters that the cold snap is approaching and that tomatoes, eggplants, strawberries, etc., as well as seedlings of nightshade fruits and melons grown in the greenhouse during the winter should continue to pay attention to prevent low temperatures.
