China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation(600028) boost the upgrading of Yuexi tea industry in Anhui Province

On March 2, the reporter learned from the China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation(600028) information office that China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation(600028) carried out in-depth assistance to the characteristic industries of “one county and one chain”, helped build the tea industry chain and integrate the high-quality resources of the tea industry in Yuexi County, Anhui Province. At present, 12 cooperative tea enterprises have been identified, covering 12000 mu of tea gardens in the county, and is promoting the preparation of the “Yuexi Cuilan tea industry park”, Drive the tea industry into the development track of modern agriculture and help rural revitalization.

It is understood that China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation(600028) has undertaken the counterpart assistance work of Yuexi County since 1990. In the past 32 years, from roads and bridges to workshops, from school buildings to fields, the mark of China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation(600028) can be seen everywhere in Yuexi County. “Speaking of Sinopec, everyone in Yuexi praises it; after 30 years of poverty alleviation, the old area has changed greatly…” this is a doggerel often heard in Yuexi County, which vividly shows the deep love between China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation(600028) and Yuexi County.

Yuexi county is located in the hinterland of Dabie Mountain, at 30 degrees north latitude. There are thousands of peaks competing for beauty and thousands of valleys competing for current in the territory. There are 69 peaks above 1000 meters and the highest altitude is 1755 meters. It is truly a “city in the clouds”. Since ancient times, fragrant tea has come out of the mountains. Yuexi tea meets the standard of good tea in the tea classic: it is born in mountains and rocks and grows in the depths of clouds and fog. The superior geographical environment characteristics of sufficient light, abundant rainfall and warm climate have created the unique and excellent quality of Yuexi tea. According to the detection of the tea quality supervision, inspection and testing center of the Ministry of agriculture, the content of tea polyphenols in Yuexi tea is 19.5, amino acids are 6.3, vitamin C is as high as 121mg / 100g and zinc is 80.9mg/kg, which is more than twice the standard reference value, which is rare.

Yuexi has a long history of tea production. Historical records began in the Qin and Han Dynasties and flourished in the Tang and Song dynasties. Shuzhou Luoyuan farm in Yuexi is one of the thirteen mountain farms of liuhuowu established under the tea debating system in the Song Dynasty, and it is also one of the official tea trading centers in the Song Dynasty. Yuexi Cuilan was created in the 1980s. Its shape has one bud and two leaves. It stretches naturally. It is green in color and looks like an orchid. Therefore, it is named Cuilan. After being brewed with boiling water, it will stretch and be even, with lasting fragrance, fresh alcohol and refreshing taste. The bottom of the leaves will be tender and even into flowers. The soup color is light green and bright. It is the top grade of tea.

Although the quality of Yuexi Cuilan is first-class, it still faces some bottlenecks in the development of modern industry: first, the basic conditions of the industry are relatively weak. At present, there are 573 tea processing enterprises in Yuexi County, but most of them are small workshop processing plants, which lack the drive and guidance of leading enterprises and have not yet formed a scale effect; Secondly, the level of industrial technology is relatively backward. The management of tea garden is extensive, the standardization, mechanization and intellectualization of tea production are insufficient, and the variety of tea is relatively single; In addition, the brand construction and promotion are also relatively lacking, resulting in the weak brand influence of Yuexi Cuilan in the national tea market.

In view of the current situation of “scattered, small and chaotic” tea industry in Yuexi County, China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation(600028) give full play to the advantages of brand, platform and channel, with the policy support and coordination of the local government, Anhui Wanyue investment group and Huichang Industrial Co., Ltd. as the main body, set up a production and processing, brand marketing, tea tourism integration, science and technology service Anhui Cuilan Investment Development Co., Ltd., a large leading tea enterprise integrating operation and development. Strive to integrate the high-quality resources of Yuexi tea industry through modern enterprise management mechanism, negotiate and cooperate in the fields of ecological planting, standard picking, large-scale production and standardizing the market, so as to drive the tea industry of the whole county to achieve high-quality development.

“If Yuexi tea wants to be bigger and stronger, the most fundamental thing is to unify the chain, standard and brand.” Behind this sentence are countless mountain roads, countless meetings and countless attempts. In terms of tea resource integration, 12 cooperative tea enterprises have been identified, covering 12000 mu of tea gardens in the county, and 5 tea production and processing plants have been optimized and upgraded to promote the intensive production of Cuilan in Yuexi; In terms of tea brand integration, the Yuexi Cuilan brand of “luoyuanchang” is planned from a professional perspective. At the same time, three product story series of Chunxin in Yamanaka, Songshishan farm and Gaoshan Fengzhi 69 are created with the theme of mountain; In terms of tea industry integration, promote the preparation of “Yuexi Cuilan Tea Industrial Park”, plan and build ecological tea garden demonstration area, refined tea processing plant, tea deep processing workshop, tea industry research center, tea culture museum, tea culture experience hall, tea culture leisure accommodation, etc., and drive the tea industry into the development track of modern agriculture through the “integration of three industries”.

Since making tea, we should make tea well. How to make good tea is to plant and make it well, and return to the mountains and the source. In order to ensure the quality of tea planting, China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation(600028) invested special funds to assist in the construction of tea organic fertilizer processing plant, and carried out in-depth processing with the unique mulberry fungus stick, wild rice stem and straw in Yuexi as raw materials, so as to provide organic fertilizer for the tea gardens in the County.

In order to ensure the covering effect, these straws need to be crushed and fermented with probiotics, and the laying thickness should be more than 10cm. Straw mulching in tea garden is conducive to soil and water conservation, regulating ground temperature and controlling weeds. Turning rotten straw into soil can effectively increase the content of soil organic matter. This not only effectively solves the problem of straw incineration pollution, but also protects the soil activity, improves the quality of Cuilan tea in Yuexi, and ensures the ecological organic planting of tea. At present, Yuexi County has used 500 tons of straw and carried out a pilot project of covering more than 500 mu of tea gardens. In 2022, it is planned to implement a 10000 mu tea garden coverage pilot, explore a new way of comprehensive utilization of straw, and realize the win-win situation of straw resource utilization, ecological environment protection and high-quality development of tea industry.
