Hunan Boosts "Vegetable Basket" Development

On October 30, two staff members boxed up peppers at an agricultural production base in Jiumu Village, Chunhua Township, Changsha County. On the same day, 30,000 kilograms of peppers were delivered to high-end supermarkets. In recent years, Hunan has focused on planning and constructing vegetable supply bases for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, greenhouse vegetable supply bases in cities and towns, off-season vegetable supply bases, and specialty vegetables supply bases. Meanwhile, the provincial authority has vigorously advanced greenhouse vegetable development to ensure a timely supply of vegetables, available 'earlier in spring' and 'later in autumn,' guaranteeing a stable and sufficient 'vegetable basket' supply.
