Spring in Zezhou County marks a season of transformation. Local farmers in Zezhou County, Jincheng City, Shanxi Province on the northern part of the Chinese mainland have turned once barren, overlooked land into a vibrant chili paradise.
This season, a dedicated agricultural cooperative expanded its chili farmland to 40 hectares, sowing about 30 million chili seedlings. Notably, one-third of the farmland was reclaimed from wasteland along a riverbank, demonstrating how determination and smart land use can rejuvenate forgotten areas. 🌶️🚜
Modern farming techniques and a commitment to sustainability are breathing new life into the region. These chili seedlings symbolize renewal and potential, inspiring both local communities and young innovators. Stay tuned as this exciting journey unfolds across the season!
