Promoting tea production and sale
Located in the southeast of Baojing County and 90 kilometers away from the county, Huangjin Village serves as the core production area of Baojing Golden Tea. In 2021, there were 159 large-scale tea producers (with an annual output of 2,500 kilograms of dried tea) in the village, yielding a total output value of 180 million yuan. As the pillar industry of Baojing County, Baojing Golden Tea has been enjoying the reputation that “one kilogram of tea is worth one kilogram of gold”. Huangjin Village has blazed an “organic, characteristic, quality and efficient” trail for the development of tea industry, providing new channels to increase the income of local residents.
In terms of the germplasm resource conservation, the ancient tea bushes of Baojing Golden Tea have been under legislative protection, and seed production and germplasm bank of Baojing Golden Tea have been put in place, in an effort to build standardized tea gardens based on technology and modernize facilities. In addition, the emphasis of Huangjin Village has been transferred from tea planting to tea processing and sale. Baojing County has integrated the agriculture-related funds and cultivated leading tea enterprises, which are expected to drive standardized tea production and ensure the high quality, affordable price and good sales of Baojing Golden Tea as well as the steady increase of tea growers’ income.
