What they say

Editor's Note: The State Council Information Office invited representatives from the agricultural and rural sectors on Friday to share their stories and insights on their work.

We no longer blindly plant soybean varieties as we used to. Now, we plant high-oil, high-protein soybeans, which we sell to COFCO, one of China's leading agricultural and food companies, and other enterprises through order-based sales to produce high-quality soybean oil and plant protein. The corn kernels we produce are high in protein and starch, and are sold to nearby breeding enterprises. Last year, our cooperative established a food company and built a fresh corn processing plant. The fresh corn industry has been very successful, with a wide variety of products including fruit corn.
