Tongan town economy

Tong 'an is a subtropical climate, warm and humid, suitable for crop growth, mainly planting rice. Before liberation, there was a single variety of rice, mainly long-stemmed Redmi, which was planted only once, and the yield per mu was about 300 ~ 350 kg. Since the early 1950s, we have tried to plant two-season late rice and introduced Nante rice, long-grain indica rice and other varieties. After the People's Commune, short varieties such as "Nongken 58" and "Duck Poai" were introduced, and tall varieties were gradually eliminated. In the mid-1960s, varieties such as "6033", "Yifeng Zao" and "Zhechang No.9" were introduced, and the yield per mu increased to 400-450kg. After 1970s, dwarf varieties and various hybrid rice were introduced, and new technologies such as film seedling raising and dry bed seedling raising were widely used. The total grain output has increased rapidly, and the yield per mu has also increased significantly, reaching 800 ~ 1000 kg. Early rice Xiangzaoxian, late hybrid rice Wei You 49, late hybrid rice Wei You 64 and Shanyou 63 were introduced in 1980s. In the 1990s, the area of early hybrid rice reached 80%, and all late rice varieties were planted with hybrid rice.
