Wutong Green-Skin Sugarcane

Wutong Green-Skin Sugarcane

　　Wutong Green-Skin Sugarcane is a specialty of Lingui, with a planting history of over 100 years. Its quality sets it apart from other yellow-, black-, or red-skinned sugarcane varieties — it is known for being crisp, sweet, fragrant, tender, and refreshing, and enjoys the reputation of “Wutong Sugarcane Sent to Beijing.”

　　Wutong is situated along both sides of the Yijiang River, and its soil, formed from sandy shale, is deep, fertile, rich in humus, and classified as moist sandy soil — perfect for cultivating green-skin sugarcane. The crop features rapid growth, tall stalks, and long internodes. In recent years, the town has planted over 5,000 mu of this sugarcane, yielding an average of 8.2 metric tons per mu, with an annual total production of more than 40,000 metric tons and an output value exceeding 80 million yuan. To boost circulation and enhance product value, the town has established two enterprises for primary processing and fresh-packaging of green-skin sugarcane since 2002, creating two brands: “Wutong Green-Skin Sugarcane” and “Yining Green-Skin Sugarcane.” The product undergoes high-pressure washing, air-drying, selection, trimming, and cutting processes, resulting in a convenient, clean, hygienic, and environmentally friendly product with exceptional taste. It also offers digestive, diuretic, and health-enhancing benefits, making it a great choice for consumption or as a gift. It is highly favored by consumers.
