Farmer entrepreneurs invented national crab patent box

A few days ago, the crab-specific packing box invented by Wu Xianjin, a big crab owner in Dangtu, Anhui Province, was granted a national patent. The packaged crabs were welcomed to the market during the Chongyang Day, and profits increased by 10%.

On October 25th, at Wu Xianjin's breeding company, a worker demonstrated the whole process of packing crabs into exquisite gifts for reporters. It takes about 10 minutes to pack a set of eight crabs. Through a transparent box, the reporter saw that eight crabs tied by yarns were fixed in the squares and motionless. Wu Xianjin, the general manager of the “patent” inventor, “Xianjin Fishery,” told reporters that the small squares were filled with non-toxic sponges that could provide the water needed for crabs and also absorb the excrement of crabs. There are ventilation holes in the box. Under the temperature of 20 degrees Celsius, this kind of box can make the crab survive for about a week.

Shi Xiaoping, a Maanshan fishery expert, said that the development of large-scale, high-quality, safety, and quality of coated crabs is the overall trend of crab farming in the county. The first two are inseparable from the technical support, while the finer ones include the brand and packaging of the product. Therefore, the patent obtained by Wu Xianjin has an extraordinary significance to the crab industry that was being painted. According to reports, this specially-designed box for crabs only packs more than two or three crabs, and the body is labeled with the National Agricultural Ministry's pollution-free agricultural product certification label. A week ago, a hotel manager in Nanjing booked more than 500 sets from the hands of Wu Xianjin with a high price of 260 yuan per box (eight packs). The packaged crabs also suddenly increased in value and the average profit rose by 10%-20%.
