Walking into the Hongshi River Valley in Baihe County, the papaya trees on the mountains are lush and the branches are full of attractive fruits. "The papaya industrial park with a cumulative investment of 150 million yuan has taken shape, a new papaya sightseeing square and a papaya R&D center have been built, and three enterprises have been introduced to settle down and put into operation, with an output value of more than 50 million yuan in 2022."

"How to promote the high-quality development of the papaya industry and better help rural revitalization" "What difficulties is the papaya industry currently facing and how to develop in the future"... This is a question that Yu Shengwu, chairman of the Baihe County CPPCC and head of the county papaya industry chain, is constantly thinking about.

To this end, the Baihe County CPPCC listed the development of the papaya industry as a relevant topic in the annual consultation plan. He led the papaya development forum, and successively organized and held the "papaya industry chain" working conference and the papaya industry development promotion meeting.

When it comes to the development of the papaya industry, Shang Guochu, director of the county papaya industry office, is full of confidence.

"In recent years, I have participated in the consultation meetings of the county CPPCC on the development of the papaya industry chain many times, and in view of the problems of shallow papaya industry level, short chain, low added value of products, and insufficient brand effect, the county is making efforts to extend the chain to supplement the chain and strengthen the chain, and promote high-quality products to enter the big market faster." Lei Yong, member of the Standing Committee of the CPPCC Baihe County and director of the County Economic and Trade Bureau, said.
