Two counties join hands to develop Baimao Tea industry
2022-07-18
Recently, the NPC standing committees of Renhua County, Guangdong Province and Rucheng County, Hunan Province led relative departments to inspect and exchange the development of Baimao (white-hair) Tea industry.
After learning that the Hongshan Baimao Tea tastes soft and sweet while the Rucheng Baimao Tea tastes tender and has a distinctive flavor, the local governments of the two places decided to work together to develop the industry.
Linked by rivers and mountains, Rucheng County and Renhua County are next to each other. Both of them are very suitable for the growth of Baimao Tea. The rare and precious Baimao Tea has won 2 gold medals in China and Paris, and been rated as a national GI agricultural product and selected into the protection list of the Agriculture Ministry.
Under the guidance of a team led by Liu Zhonghua, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, Rucheng County has made continuous efforts to expand tea planting areas and cultivate excellent varieties on the basis of the existing tea gardens through guarantees from six aspects including organization, fund, science and technology, policy, publicity and talent.
It is planned to plant 20,000 mu (about 1,333.33 hectares) of high-quality Baimao Tea by 2026, driving the output value of the whole industry chain to 3 billion yuan and helping to revitalize the countryside.
Renhua County adheres to the sustainable development and enhance the brand influence and product competitiveness.
At present, the Hongshan Baimao Tea covers a planting area of 13,900 mu (about 926.66 hectares), of which more than 6,000 mu (about 400 hectares) are available for tea leaves picking, with its annual production of 600 tons and annual sales up to 55 million yuan.
