How did the history of Gannan Xiaomi come about

In 2009, relying on the advantages of the joint construction between Qiqihar Branch of Heilongjiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences and Jinxing Village, the Gannan County Red Grain Grain Planting Professional Cooperative was established with a registered capital of 1.2 million yuan at the Gannan County Administration for Industry and Commerce, with Comrade Liu Shengsheng as the chairman

In order to increase the added value of Honggu and extend the industrial chain of Honggu, the cooperative invested 890000 yuan in early June 2010 to build a new Honggu processing workshop covering an area of 22000 square meters and a building area of 1350 square meters. It also added 430000 yuan of domestically leading millet processing production line that integrates stone removal, rice milling, polishing, and color selection. In 2011, the products of Honggu Cooperative were exported to places such as Daqing and Dalian

Sensory identification method for dyed millet: Color: Fresh millet, uniform color, golden yellow, glossy; The dyed millet has a dark yellow color and lacks luster, and the color of each grain is the same. Odor: Fresh millet with a normal scent of millet; After dyeing, millet has a scent of chromatin, such as curcumin, which has a turmeric odor. Washing: Fresh millet does not turn yellow when washed with warm water; The dyed millet turns yellow when washed with warm water

Add 25 milliliters of anhydrous ethanol, grind it, take 25 milliliters of its suspension, place it in a colorimetric tube, then add 2 milliliters of 10% sodium hydroxide, shake evenly, let it stand for a moment, and observe the color change.
