The way to get rich with fragrant medicinal materials-- A brief account of the development of traditional Chinese medicine industry in Haixing Development Zone

According to Zhongwei Daily, when entering the operating room, the unique fragrance of Chinese herbal medicine will make Li Cunmei feel happy and energetic. From peasant women who revolve around pot dolls all day to industrial workers, Li Cunmei of Siying Village, Sanhe Town, says that this is something she has never thought of.

In the small and micro enterprise incubator in Haixing Development Zone, the processing workshops of Ningxia Huizheng Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and Ningxia Hongxia Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. are very busy, with more than 40 peasant women like Li Cunmei earning wages on their doorstep. In the sliced packaging workshop of Ningxia Huizheng Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Li Cunmei is mainly responsible for bottling the sliced astragalus membranaceus. "this job is easy for those of us who are used to farm work. Now my monthly salary can cover the income of growing 2 mu of corn for a year, which is very beautiful! " Li Cunmei was not only satisfied with her current job, but also began to plan to grow a few mu of land at home into Chinese herbs such as Codonopsis pilosula or Radix Astragali with higher economic value.

Where there is a dream, there is a future and there is motivation. Like Li Cunmei, Yu Zhengfu in the hilly village of Sanhe Town also wants to take off his "poor hat" as soon as possible and live a rich life. This year, under the guidance and encouragement of the party committee and government of Sanhe Town, he planted all his more than 10 mu of land on Banlangen.

"although there is a severe drought this year and the medicinal herbs in the fields are not so 'beautiful', they are better than growing corn and wheat. If you plant wheat, there will be no harvest in this kind of dry land. " When it comes to the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicine, Yu Zhengfu is full of confidence. He believes that with the support policies issued by the Haixing Development Zone and so many pharmaceutical companies on his doorstep, as long as the weather is favorable, there will be a "way to make money" for the cultivation of medicinal materials.

Guo Jiwu, deputy secretary of the party work committee and director of the administrative committee of Haixing Development Zone, told reporters that in terms of industrial policy, the state has listed the pharmaceutical industry, as an important part of the biological economy, as a major strategy for breakthrough development. It has issued "some opinions of the State Council on supporting and promoting the Development of traditional Chinese Medicine," which makes it clear that it is necessary to actively promote the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine and vigorously develop proprietary Chinese medicine and ethnic medicine. Ningxia Hui Autonomous region and Zhongwei City have also issued corresponding opinions and plans, while Sanhe Town has a traditional history of planting traditional Chinese medicine and suitable climatic conditions. For this reason, after careful study and scientific analysis, the party work committee and management committee of the development zone clearly regard the traditional Chinese medicine industry as an advantageous leading industry to adjust and optimize the planting structure, improve agricultural efficiency, increase farmers' income and strengthen the regional economy.

According to the requirements of variety diversification, layout regionalization, planting standardization and processing standardization, Haixing Development Zone closely relies on the incubator of small and micro enterprises, vigorously attracts investment, and actively introduces traditional Chinese medicine processing enterprises. pay close attention to the key links such as the construction of planting bases and the cultivation of leading enterprises, so as to make the Chinese medicine industry flourish and rise rapidly in Haixing Development Zone. According to statistics, at present, 20 primary processing enterprises of traditional Chinese medicine have been introduced into the small and micro enterprise incubator, driving farmers in the hills of Sanhe Town, Xueliang, Hongcheng and other villages to plant 11600 mu of traditional Chinese medicine such as Radix Isatidis and Radix Astragali.

In order to promote the development and growth of traditional Chinese medicine industry, the Party working Committee and Management Committee of Haixing Development Zone also initiated the establishment of traditional Chinese medicine industry cooperatives. On October 23 this year, Haixing Development Zone held the establishment of a professional cooperative for the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicine in Ningxia Flower Garden and the Promotion Association for the Development of traditional Chinese Medicine Industry. Sanhe Town, 20 imported Chinese medicine processing enterprises, members of Huayuan Cooperative and responsible persons of Qiying Town, Liwang Town and Zhengqi Township of Haiyuan County conspired for development and worked together to lay out the road of enriching the people.

It is said that "everything is difficult at the beginning". However, the Haixing Development Zone, which occupies a favorable climate, geographical location and human harmony, has made a good start and made a big step forward in the development of traditional Chinese medicine industry. Next, Haixing Development Zone still has a lot to do, but as long as we persist in combining the development of traditional Chinese medicine industry with agricultural development, comprehensively speed up the pace of planting standardization and quality standardization, and constantly improve the level of intensive processing and industrial intensification, the traditional Chinese medicine industry will certainly become a new engine for local farmers to increase their income and become rich. The road of becoming rich with fragrant medicinal materials will be the most beautiful and vivid scene in the industrial development layout of Haixing Development Zone.
