Nanjing Suoshi Village Ecological Park
Suoshi Village is located at the foot of Yangshan Mountain and got its name due to its connection with the "No.1 Tablet under Heaven" (Yangshan Stele), which is just 1 kilometer away. The village boasts abundant eco-tourism resources. It is recognized as a National Agricultural Tourism Demonstration Site and a National AA-level Tourist Attraction. Nowadays, Suoshi has not only become a new trend for urban dwellers seeking rural experiences, but also a new growth point attracting visitors from all over the country.
Suoshi Village has acquired 1,150 mu of land through land transfer from local farmers and invested over 16 million yuan to uniformly plan and reorganize the land, build roads and water systems, and construct steel-frame vegetable greenhouses, solar greenhouses, and multi-span steel-frame greenhouses. These facilities are then leased back to farmers for cultivation. The area now features a 1,150-mu facility agriculture zone, including 750 mu for vegetables, 120 mu for strawberries, 130 mu for flowers, and 150 mu for various edible fungi. The entire agricultural demonstration park has achieved automated irrigation, diversified planting, and an overall landscaped environment, with an average net income of 11,000 yuan per mu. In addition, the village has built “apartments” for large-scale dairy farmers, housing 400 dairy cows, all of which are milked using mechanical milking machines. A further 1.2 million yuan was invested in a new production line for the harmless treatment of cow manure. The resulting biogas slurry and residue are used to improve soil quality and enhance product quality in the agricultural park. The biogas is used for villagers’ daily life needs, achieving two benefits in one action.
The Suoshi Village Ecological Park features endless rows of vegetable greenhouses and strawberry plantations for visitors to pick. There are also many farmhouse restaurants nearby that serve authentic rural dishes. A large parking lot is available. Nowadays, city dwellers face high levels of stress and are eager to relieve it through nature. They come to the countryside to get close to nature, enjoy the fun of rural life by picking fruits and participating in traditional farming activities. Dining at farmhouses offers a dining experience immersed in a natural atmosphere. Suoshi Village Ecological Park shows us the boundless potential of transitioning from traditional agriculture to ecological agriculture.
