Huarong County is vigorously promoting the cultivation of this
Taxus is a natural and rare plant that is recognized as endangered in the world. It is full of treasures. Its skin, roots, trunk, fruits and leaves can be used for medicinal purposesextractTaxol is the best natural anti-cancer drug discovered so far. It has been widely used in the treatment of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, some cervical cancer and lung cancer in clinic. Due to the slow growth rate and poor regeneration ability of Taxus under natural conditions, there has been no large-scale Taxus raw material forest base in the world for a long time. Since 2015, Huarong County has begun to introduce the breeding, planting and processing of Taxus. After three years of development, Xinfa Agricultural Technology has established Taxus Agricultural Science and Technology Park, focusing on cultivating Taxus mandiana. At present, the planting area has reached 1241 mu and the seedlings have reached 5.80 million plants. At the same time, the company has also cooperated with Hunan Agricultural University and Chongqing Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine to obtain four national patents in yew dormancy and pollination, and has developed yew bonsai, yew fruit wine and other products, which are widely popular in the market.
At the subsequent symposium, members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference offered suggestions on how to expand and develop the yew industry, believing that the yew industry has a broad market prospect and is a rich people's industry, which should be given strong support. Xu Kangrong pointed out that yew integrates medicinal, edible, ornamental and other values, with high added value of products and promising industrial development prospects. To increase the publicity and promotion of yew knowledge and value, CPPCC members should strive to be propagandists and promoters, so that the value of yew is widely known and well-known, and attract more people to join the ranks of yew planting; to increase industrial support and support efforts, county CPPCC departments and CPPCC members will try their best to compete for policies, projects, and funds to help enterprises solve practical problems such as infrastructure building; Xinfa Technology Company should strengthen the research and development of new products and patent protection, deeply integrate production, learning, and research, and launch more high-value-added, market-competitive yew products to help enterprises continue to grow bigger and stronger.
