Changning City is one of the origins and core production areas of oil-tea camellia in China, boasting a history of over 1,700 years of oil-tea camellia tree planting. In recent years, the city authority has given full play to its resource advantages by adopting a mode of "village Party branch + company + cooperative + farmer" to promote the development of the oil-tea camellia industry. Now it has developed into a significant characteristic pillar industry in the city, with the planting area of oil-tea camellias exceeding one million mu (about 66,666 hectares). These efforts have helped increase farmers' income and boost rural revitalization. (Photo/Zhou Xiuyuchun)
