Wuming Tomatoes

Wuming Tomatoes

　　Wuming County is a well-known base for winter and autumn tomato cultivation in Guangxi, covering an area of over 20,000 mu, primarily distributed in Shuangqiao Town and Taiping Town, with an annual output of 90,000 tons. In 2008, Linlv Village in Taiping Town, Wuming County, was certified as a pollution-free tomato production base by the National Ministry of Agriculture. Wuming tomatoes are mainly planted after the late rice harvest, predominantly featuring the “Stone” series of varieties, and are available on the market from mid-February to the end of April. The tomatoes are large, juicy, and brightly colored, and they remain firm at room temperature for over 20 days after ripening, making them highly resistant to storage and transport, with a long shelf life and excellent commercial quality. Due to their superior quality, the product is in high demand and often sells out quickly.
