Bazhong Asparagus

　　Asparagus is a high-end, premium vegetable. Eating asparagus has become a lifestyle habit in developed countries because it is rich in amino acids and tissue proteins, which have a significant effect in fighting and inhibiting cancer, making it highly favored by consumers. Asparagus products have also begun to appear in hotels, restaurants, and supermarkets in major medium and large cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Chengdu. Our city has over 10 years of history in cultivating asparagus, continuously accumulating growing experience. Recently, we have introduced the planting of 10,000 mu of high-quality American asparagus, with plans to build the country’s second-largest asparagus base producing 50,000 tons annually within three years. The government has designated this project as a pillar industry of Bazhong City, assigning leadership to personally oversee it.
