“唐庄白莲”是河南省名优土特产品，以“ 藕断丝不连、隔夜不变色，营养丰富”享誉南北，曾列为清代宫廷御用膳食佳品。
      
    由于具有特殊的土壤特质，“唐庄白莲”素有“藕断丝不边，隔夜不变色”的美誉，且富含矿物质，微生素，口感清脆甘甜。唐庄白莲鼎盛时期全乡种植面积达 5000多亩,后来受品种老化、重茬病等因素影响，白莲的产量、质量和效益有所下滑，绿波荡漾的莲池渐成星光点点。
      
    近两年来，从培育乡镇特色产业、增加群众收入的角度出发，我乡积极恢复白莲种植。成立了“国强白莲合作社”，改良优化品种，引导群众莲鱼共养，提高经济效益，同时为莲农提供技术、销售服务，白莲的种植面积逐渐得到恢复，全乡已发展到近2000亩。如今“唐庄白莲”已经通过了国家有机蔬菜认证，获得了国家有机蔬菜认证证书。
      
    今年唐庄国强白莲专业合作社，连片种植唐庄优质白莲200亩，统一种植、管理和经营，从选地、整地、施肥、放水稳池、选种下种、田间管理、收获、留种等各个种植环节上，都采取无害化有机栽培技术，目前已喜获丰收。
      
     社旗将重点打造唐庄白莲这一品牌。一是采取“合作社+农户”的模式，全力扩大种植面积，明年连片种植上千亩，争取3-5年内实现连片5000亩的产业规模；二是积极向上争取白莲基地项目，以项目为支撑，改善基础设施，促进规模膨胀；三是提升产出效益，积极吸引客商投资兴办白莲加工企业，拉长产业链条，促进产品增值，该项目已与西安客商签订合作协议，与农户签订租地合同800亩。
      
    如今，唐庄白莲也“穿”上了精美的包装，提高了品位，成为城乡人民春节期间馈赠亲朋好友的时尚礼品。我们下一步的工作重点是打响“唐庄白莲”这一品牌，扩大规模，开发莲制品。利用我乡位于省道之上的交通便利优势，发展“农家乐—莲乡行”旅游项目，让群众都来发莲“财”。
