Yongde County is known for its pig production. However, its meat processing approach is weak due to the underdeveloped economy and disadvantaged location, limiting its sales mode to selling live pigs. And because of that reason, the county was at the bottom of the industrial chain. We promoted the cooperation between the Company, local farmers, and the village cooperative where our management staff was stationed. By forming an entire pork processing industry chain, we helped farmers to expand sales channels and thus increase their income. In 2021, we assisted the county by purchasing 2,990 kilograms of pork products and helping it sell another 1,200 kilograms.
