in time

Weather: Hami melon likes abundant sunshine, large temperature difference between day and night, which can give full play to photosynthesis during the day, while low respiratory consumption at night is conducive to nutrient precipitation, so it has high sugar content and extremely sweet taste. As it happens, Naomao Lake is a typical continental arid climate, with an average annual temperature of 9.8℃, dry and little rain, high temperature in summer, strong and long sunshine and large temperature difference between day and night. These seemingly harsh natural conditions are simply paradise for cantaloupes.

Geographical advantage

Geographical location: Naomao Lake is a typical water basin plain with abundant water resources. The annual runoff of Yiwu River is 57 million cubic meters. The underground water reserves are 30 million cubic meters. Naomaohu Town is a key agricultural area in Yiwu County. The local Hami melon planting area is 65,000 mu, and the soil in the farming area is mainly fluvo-aquic soil and calcareous soil with high organic matter content. In order to ensure the quality of cantaloupe, they always insist on farmyard manure and refuse chemical fertilizers and pesticides.

Unity and coordination within one's team

Renhe: In fact, the reason why the cantaloupe in Naomao Lake is so sweet is not only the superior geographical conditions, but also the careful cultivation of people here. Almost all of them are experts in planting cantaloupe. 200 1 registered the trademark of Naomaohu brand cantaloupe, won the gold medal of the National Agricultural Fair, and was a brand-name agricultural product in Xinjiang. In 2002, it was certified as a green cantaloupe production base by the Agriculture Department of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Every spring, a grand sowing ceremony is held here. For local people, it is not only seeds, but also the hope and joy of harvest. In the harvest season, the green cantaloupe vines are covered with golden cantaloupe, which attracts many leaders and tourists to visit.
