Core Viewpoint - The cold-weather vegetables from Qinghai Province are gaining popularity in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and overseas markets, significantly contributing to local income and economic development [1][6]. Group 1: Natural Conditions and Agricultural Practices - Qinghai's unique natural conditions, including an average annual temperature of 3.4°C and a daily temperature difference of over 15°C, create an ideal environment for vegetable growth, reducing pest occurrences and extending growth cycles [1][6]. - The use of greenhouse facilities allows for multiple planting cycles within a year, with some construction costs supported by government funds, enabling farmers to recover their investments within a year [2]. Group 2: Economic Impact and Market Demand - The economic benefits of cold-weather vegetables are evident, with farmers earning approximately 8,000 yuan per mu (0.067 hectares) from vegetable cultivation, compared to less than 2,000 yuan from wheat [6]. - The market demand for these vegetables is high, with products like bell peppers selling for 30 yuan per pound in markets such as Russia and Central Asia, and daily shipments of one ton of vegetables to Hong Kong still unable to meet demand [2][5]. Group 3: Industry Development and Community Engagement - The region has developed innovative industry models, including "enterprise + cooperative + farmer" and "party building + cooperative + base," leading to the establishment of six large-scale processing enterprises and 136 new business entities, benefiting around 35,000 people [2]. - Cold-weather vegetables have become a key output product for Qinghai Province, with an annual planting area of approximately 650,000 acres and a production volume of about 1.58 million tons, of which 700,000 tons are exported [6].
