Relying on the mountain climate, the county has developed Canzi industry via the "company + cooperative + planting base + farmer" mode since last year. Around 66 rural households planted 900 acres (60 ha.) of Canzi. This year, the planting area has been expanded to more than 1,300 acres (87 ha.).


  The Canzi are processed into ciba cake, Canzi wine, and Canzi powder. Canzi production has become a characteristic agricultural industry, bringing in fortunes to the villagers. (Photo/Huang Chuntao)
