On May 6th, villagers of Yangbao Village, Shuangxiqiao Town, Xian’an District were cultivating ginger in the greenhouse of the ginger base of Xianning Zhiyuan Planting Professional Cooperative.

After its attempt to plant ginger witnessed a success last year, it has increased the ginger planting areas to 105 mu this year. In the meantime, it has attracted 10 farming households to plant ginger together, with a total ginger growing area of 147 mu. Plus, this cooperative will develop a ginger industry integrating planting and deep processing; now it has registered a brand named Yangbao ginger. [Photo by Chen Hongju/Xianning Daily]
