Chengkou County is located at the southern foot of Daba Mountain, with rich vegetation and excellent natural conditions for the development of beekeeping, yet the terrain is complex and transportation is extremely inconvenient. To take full advantage of the supporting role of science and technology in the fight against poverty, Xu Jinshan, a professor at Chongqing Normal University who has been working on the position of protecting and enhancing bee species in the system national beekeeping industry technology, entered the Daba mountainous area in this way …

Training + orientation
Promote efficient husbandry to help the poor.
As the head of the special commissioner team of China Bee Technology in Chengkou County, Xu Jinshan meticulously organized a team to carry out the construction of the Chengkou China Bee technology expansion system and the promotion, application and demonstration of the new technology of China Bee with the support of the Chengkou County Economic Information Commission. Focus on science and technology services, such as industry consulting and guidance, and seriously promote bee science and technology services in Chengkou County.
In order to precisely improve the status quo of Chengkou County’s low rate of improved beekeeping and outdated honey production technology, Xu Jinshan’s team established a standardized service and technical support system for urban beekeeping that integrates the planning, demonstration and promotion of beekeeping and industrial application.
Among them, for Chengkou animal husbandry managers, technicians and bee husbandry owners from China, we have successively carried out more than 10 large-scale training and field training, and trained about 500 beekeepers and technical staff. Technical Manual “and published.
Conduct targeted “point-to-point” poverty alleviation and distribute 50 colonies of enhanced bee colonies, 50 sets of supportive live frame Lang’s hives, and standard nest foundations of more than 200 spleens to agreed poor households. In the later stage of the distribution of the bee colonies, the combination of centralized theoretical teaching and field orientation in bee farms was adopted as technical guidance, which increased the enthusiasm of poor households in beekeeping and promoted the increase of income of poor households in Chengkou county.
At the same time, the team joined the Chengkou County Livestock Technology Promotion Center to carry out the integration and application of Chongqing Chinese bee germplasm resource extraction and high-quality honey supporting technologies. and high performance. Since 2018, the team has successively established 2 China bee multiplication fields in Chengkou, 8 China bee standardization breeding bases and 1 “China bee standardization multiplication base” of the National System of Industry Technology of the Bees. A “Production-University-Research Cooperation Base” of the Engineering Research Center of the Ministry of Technology and Education, and a “China Bee Seed Improvement Experimental Base” of the China Bee Industry Technology System. Chongqing, achieving an annual multiplication capacity of 2000 Chinese bees, benefiting the bee industry in Chengkou County Considerable economic benefits.

Technology + Tradition
Integrating the discipline promotes healthy beekeeping
Traditional beekeeping is facing a transformation and update. With the development of intelligent hardware, sensors, PC-side systems and mobile-side systems, the integration of reality and traditional beekeeping applications is possible.
Using the Internet of Things, Internet and Big Data technologies, Xu Jinshan led a team to collaborate with the Ministry of Education Engineering Research Center for Active Materials Biotechnology to develop a health monitoring system for bee farms. and bee colonies. Beekeepers can use the app developed by themselves to solve the problem that beekeepers can remotely view and monitor the health status of bees in real time. The system also provides services such as online communication between beekeepers and agricultural technology experts, queen bee rearing, and annual data collection from bee farms.
In 2018, the team’s integrated bee farm monitoring system was applied on-site for the first time in Chengkou County’s Zhongfeng Stock Preservation Farm, and on-site monitoring of high-definition black bear scenes locals destroying beehives and stealing honey. At present, the technological achievements have been promoted and applied at the base of Chengkou Huaqianyuan Bee Industry Co., Ltd., guiding the establishment of 8 computerization pilot bee farms and the establishment of a bee farm management board, which is an improvement of the beekeeping industry in Chengkou. Provide strong support.
In addition, Xu Jinshan’s team guided the local Huaqianyuan beekeeping company to develop 3 kinds of special China Bee honey, and the product quality reached national standards. According to statistics, the company has participated in the construction of collective economic projects in 16 villages in 5 municipalities of Chengkou County and has established an interest link mechanism with 1,421 poor households and critically poor households in 2012. The base of the farm de Abejas provided employment to 17 farmers and conducted free technical beekeeping training for 200 people. It participated in poverty alleviation through consumption and boosted sales of special agricultural products such as honey, shiitake mushrooms, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, noodles, bacon and other agricultural products to 15.46 million yuan.
“Chengkou County, Chongqing City, is a deeply impoverished state-level county. It is society’s inescapable responsibility and obligation to allow high-quality agricultural products from deep in the mountains to enter the market and lift them out of poverty. to local poor households “. Xu Jinshan and his team of scientific and technological poverty alleviation services Practical actions have shown that the bee industry can bring a sweet life to the people of Chengkou.
