　　With an alfalfa planting area of 120,000 mu, it is known as the “No. 1 Alfalfa County in China”

The specialty alfalfa of Napi has a planting area of 120,000 mu, earning it the title of “No. 1 Alfalfa County in China”. Napi County in Hebei Province is an experimental base for the national Ministry of Agriculture’s alfalfa industrialization demonstration project and is a renowned high-quality alfalfa production base in North China. Currently, the county has 50,000 mu of alfalfa, with main varieties including FD4, Aohan, Jinnan, and Zhongmu No. 1. It is expected that by 2005, the alfalfa planting area in the county will exceed 100,000 mu. The Grass Industry Center of the County Animal Husbandry Bureau can supply 200,000 kilograms of Cangzhou purple alfalfa seeds and 32,000 tons of alfalfa products (including alfalfa powder, bales, chopped alfalfa, blocks, and pellets) to the market each year. These products are rich in nutrition, high in protein, and highly palatable, making them popular among feed mills, dairy farms, racecourses, rabbit farms, fish farms, and zoos in major medium and large cities across China. At this year’s Northern Agricultural Products Trade Fair, the double-compressed alfalfa hay produced by the Grass Industry Center of the County Animal Husbandry Bureau was awarded the title of Famous and High-quality Agricultural Product of Hebei Province.
