Technology helps the cultivation of strawberries in Korla City, China’s Xinjiang

On November 17, 2021, strawberry seedlings grow vigorously and staff members are checking the growth of strawberry seedlings in the smart greenhouse of the modern agricultural industrial park in Karbagh Village, Yingxia Township, Korla City, Bayingolin Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture, northwest China’s Xinjiang. The industrial park mainly employs yellow sand substrate cultivation technology and stereoscopic cultivation technology to grow strawberries, which overcomes the shortcomings of traditional soil cultivation, reduces soil-borne diseases, and increases planting density. At present, about 20,000 strawberry seedlings are cultivated and expected to be picked at the end of January 2022. (Correspondents: Li Jie, Zeng Min)
