Abstract: Panshi Qiantang (Thousands Reservoirs) rice is planted in the low-lying areas downstream of reservoirs and flood dam in Panshi city, Jilin province, with an area of 17,787 ha. The case area is located in the transition zone from Changbai Mountain to Songhuajing-Nenjiang Plain, a mostly hilly area. Snow-melt water and precipitation are naturally collected into reservoirs and flood dam. The soil in the rice field is mainly black soil rich in organic matter. The soil quality is better than the standard of soil environmental quality risk control value for soil contamination of agricultural land, and the quality of irrigation water is better than that of urban drinking water. At present, there are mainly six rice varieties planted in Panshi city, and the qualities of the rice are equal to or better than standards of Wuchang rice and Panjin rice. The case proposes a new model of black soil protection and sustainable development of permanent basic farmland. The case dataset consists of five data files: location and scope of case study area; physical geographical data; rice variety characteristics data; management data; and historical data. The data is archived in .shp, .docx, .jpg, .tif. and .xlsx formats, and 22.4 MB in size.

1 Introduction

To meet increasing demand for quality agricultural products, the protection of origin of agricultural products has become more important. Agricultural modernization and intelligent agriculture of ??quality geographical products?? (geographical indications, geographical product with unique features, and geographical product with special traditional) came into being[1]. Panshi city is located in the central and southern part of Jilin province, in the transitional zone between the Songnen Plain and the Changbai Mountains, with unique ecological and atmospheric conditions. Panshi city has a vast area of black soil[2,3]. The paddy fields lie in the downstream of the reservoirs and ponds. The use of reservoirs and ponds for irrigation yields ??Jilin Panshi Qiantang (Thousands Reservoirs) rice??, a quality rice product with regional geographical characteristics.

3.1.3 Soil Properties

A total of 39 soil samples from the case area were collected, and nitrogen content (N%), carbon content (C%), carbon-nitrogen ratio (C/N), and soil metal elements were tested by the Physical and Chemical Analysis Center of the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IGSNRR/CAS). The nitrogen (N) content was about 0.12% to 0.48%, the carbon (C) content was about 1.16% to 7.11%, the C/N was 9.63 to 14.81, and the organic matter content was between 1.89% and 12.49% (Table 3).

The soil metal contents in the case area are far lower than the soil pollution risk screening value of the corresponding paddy field in the soil environmental quality standard (GB 15618??2018). Therefore, the soil in the area is rich in organic matter, high in nitrogen and carbon, and low in harmful heavy metals (Table 4).

3.1.4 Water Resources and Quality

There are abundant water resources in Panshi city. The average annual water resource is 893 million m3, with 781 million m3 from surface water, and 112 million m3 from groundwater. The two major rivers in the case area are the Huifa river in the south and the Yinma river in the north, divided by the Hadaling Mountains. There are 65 sub-rivers in the case area, with a total drainage area of ​​3,867.31 km2 (Figure 5). The average annual rainfall is 719 mm, decrease gradually from southeast (803 mm) to northwest (624 mm).

3.2.2 Nutritional Quality of Panshi Qiantang (Thousands Reservoirs) Rice

Nutritional qualities of Panshi Qiantang rice were tested by two units: the Grain and Product Quality Supervision, Inspection and Testing Center (Harbin) of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs; and Jiangsu Shipu Testing Service Co., Ltd. (Table 6). According to Table 6, the chalkiness of the six rice samples are between 1.4% and 4% and adhesive strength reaches to 81–98 mm. Referring to the national quality rice standard (GB 17891??2017), the chalkiness of the first-class rice is lower than 2% and that of the second-class is 2% to 5%. All the Panshi Qiantang rice samples except for the Daohuaxiang-2, meet the national standard for first-class rice.

Comparing against the national standard for rice in Wuchang (GBT 19266??2008) and for rice in Panjin (GBT 18824??2008), the quality of Panshi Qiantang rice is far better than the specified value of Wuchang rice and Panjin rice in the three indicators of chalkiness degree, percentage of grains with chalkiness, and adhesive strength. In terms of amylose index, four of the six varieties of Qiantang rice have the equivalent quality as Wuchang rice and Panjin rice, with Tongyu-269 and Daohuaxiang-2 having slightly lower amylose index.

3.3 Management Data

??Qiantang (Thousands Reservoirs) rice?? was registered as a trade mark in 2020 (Figure 7).

Professionals are assigned to be responsible for rice production, and rice cultivation technicians are invited to the field to guide and demonstrate rice planting. The main process of rice planting is recorded and archived for traceability. Some specifications for rice production have been established, including: planting, irrigation, fertilization, acquisition, storage, pest management, and natural disaster response.

The main measures of Qiantang rice cultivation in Panshi city are as follows:

(1) Rice field selection. The air quality should meet the ambient air quality standard (GB 3095). The soil quality should conform to the land environmental quality??agricultural soil pollution risk management and control standards (GB 15618). Irrigation water must meet the water quality standard for farmland irrigation (GB 5084). The environment of rice production areas must meet the environmental quality standards of green food production areas (NY/T 391??2021).

(2) Rice variety selection. After multiple screening, 6 rice varieties were selected for planting, namely: Daohuaxiang-2, Changle-520, Jinongda-667, Jida-518, Tongyu-269, Jihong-6.

(3) Rice seed treatment and seedling technique. The quality of seeds should meet the national first-class standard set by GB 4404.1??1996, Seed needs to be sun-dried outdoors in late March, laid 8–10 cm thick under the sun, sun-dried for 2–3 days, and turned 3–4 times each day. Seeds should be selected with salt water or yellow mud water with a density of (1.08–1.13) ??10–6 kg/L. In the early and middle of April, the rice seeds were soaked and disinfected, and the germination was accelerated under appropriate temperature and moisture. This process is carried out according to the production, processing, identification and management standard of organic products (GB/T 19630??2019).

(4) Field technique. (a) Fertilization: carry out deep ploughing in autumn, and transplant rice in late May. The paddy fields that produce A-grade green food rice should apply organic fertilizers only. (b) Irrigation: reasonable irrigation of high-quality rice should be shallow water transplanting, deep water seedling protection, shallow water tillering promotion, deep sun drying and tiller control, deep water protection of tires, and intermittent grain increase, so as to save water while maintaining yield and quality. (c) Pest and disease control: follow the national standard GB/T 19630??2019 comprehensive management of pests and diseases and NY/T 393??2020 guidelines for the use of pesticides in green food. Place a frequency-vibration insecticidal lamp every 4 ha in the field to trap and kill rice borers. (d)Weed control: manually, and stock ducks in paddy fields.

3.3.2 Rice Harvesting and Processing

(1) Harvest and storage management. The rice should be harvested in time after maturity, and the threshing should only be conducted when the moisture content of the rice drops to 15%, so that the moisture content can be kept at a lower level. The packaging of Grade A green quality rice shall comply with the national standard GB/T 17109. Different varieties should be treated separately, and their transportation, storage, and processing must comply with the NY/T 5190 standard.

(2) Rice processing enterprise selection. Only qualified rice enterprises can conduct rice processing and they should follow the national standards of GB1354??2009, GB 5490—1985, and GB/T 5539—1985.

3.3.3 Qiantang Rice Traceability System

(1) Scope of traceability: geographical location, time, and quality.

(2) Traceability data: In the origin of Qiantang rice, the traceability data mainly includes three categories: planting, processing and storage.

  Planting: farmer name of rice fields, soil, water, rice varieties, fertilizer and pesticide use.

Processing: qualification of the rice enterprises, site environment, and standards adopted.

Storage: warehouse environment, finished grain batch, check-in time, check-out time, operator, and quality inspection information of finished grain.

3.3.4 Product Business Promotion

(1) Product positioning: green, eco-friendly, organic, and healthy rice.

(2) Production model: double layer structure, i.e., rural comprehensive service cooperatives (village level), and supply and marketing groups (county level).

(3) Sales model: village comprehensive service cooperatives (village collective economic organizations), cooperatives and order sales, aided by traceability system.

(4) Brand management: based on the product positioning of ??Qiantang rice??, strictly manage the rice cultivation environment.

3.4 Social Economy and Rice Cultivation History

3.4.1 Population and Economy Development of Panshi City

According to the census data of China in 2010 and 2020, the population of Panshi city has decreased from 405,779 in 2010 to 370,238 in 2020, a drop of 135,541 or 26.80% over 10 years. The shrink of rural population is as serious as that of urban population (Table 7).

Meanwhile, the GDP of Panshi city has also dropped, yet the primary industry is relatively stable. The grain area (102,670–11,2571 ha, +9.6%) and yield increased slightly, and the rice area ( 20,785–17,787 ha, –14.42%) and yield decreased slightly (Table 8).

3.4.2 Rice planting history in Northeast China

Rice has been planted in Northeast China for a long time. According to the New Book of Tang??Bohai Biography, there was rice from Lucheng during the Tang dynasty over 1,300 years ago[13]. In 1910, Korean peasants moved to Panshi. In 1917, a Korean farmer at Da-an-tun, Chaoyangshan (now Chaoyangshan Town), opened a 12-mu (12??667 m2) paddy field. Since 1949, Panshi county has been encouraging rice cultivation. In late 1980s, rice replaced corn as the staple food of local people.

Rice seedling raising and cutting technique also experienced a series of innovations. (1) in 1949, rice planting was mainly scattered, and seedling raising and transplanting accounted for only 10%. In 1952, seedling raising and transplanting reached 50%. By 1958, all old paddy fields were using seedling raising and transplanting. (2) Seedling raising method: before 1949, it was waterbed seedling raising. In 1958, wet seedling raising was promoted. By 1965, wet seedling raising had been normally used. (3) Plant spacing and row spacing: There was no plant spacing and row spacing before 1952. The 20 cm??20 cm spacing came into being since 1952 and became popular in 1965. Meanwhile the 30 cm??10 cm spacing was also accepted by some places. (4) Seedling technique: In 1965, plastic film seedling was used; in 1975, greenhouse seedling was used. In 1985, greenhouse plate seedling was used. Since 2000, rice varieties in Panshi city gradually tended to be of high quality[14].

4 Discussion and Conclusion

The habitat of ​​the case product (Qiantang rice) is located in the black soil region in northeast China. The unique geographical environment has given birth to quality rices with regional characteristics in Panshi city, Jilin province. But there are still some issues that need further research.

4.1 The Standardized Management of Qiantang Rice

While the current national standards are relatively comprehensive for rice planting management, the industry standards and local standards tailored to Qiantang rice are still lacking, including: irrigation water quality standards for Qiantang rice, planting standards for different varieties of rice, standards for water-soil-farmland ecosystems in different planting areas, standards for cultivation and screening of Qiantang rice seed resources, integrated standards for production, processing, and transportation traceability of Qiantang rice.

4.2 Black Soil Protection and Sustainable Use

Panshi Qiantang rice is planted in the permanent farmland of black soil. To prevent soil fertility from decline and conserve the growth environment, the following issues need to be further studied: return rice straw to field after treatment, implement rotation by different varieties, conduct land fallow and conservative tillage, uplift soil organic matter, balance soil nutrients.

4.3 Outflow and Return of Rural Population

The main cause of population outflow in Panshi is lack of employment opportunities. This case study offers a novel way to solve this problem. The planting, processing, transportation, management and other links of Qiantang rice management can provide jobs, enable farmers to work in their hometown to obtain appropriate income, attract migrant workers to come back, promote local economic development, and gradually alleviate the problem of population loss.
