　　Dehong Prefecture in Yunnan Province is one of the most suitable regions in the world for lemon cultivation. Currently, two major lemon production areas—Mengxiu and Huyu—have been established, with a total lemon planting area of over 40,000 acres. The planting regions span three counties/cities, 22 townships, and involve more than 4,000 growers. The total output has reached over 10,000 tons, with an industrial output value of 100 million RMB, making it China’s second-largest lemon production base. According to plans, the area will expand to 300,000 acres by 2018, establishing itself as a key domestic lemon production hub. Hongrui Lemon Development Co., Ltd., located in the region, has a comprehensive deep-processing capacity exceeding 100,000 tons, making it the largest modern lemon processing enterprise in China and even Asia. It produces and develops a range of lemon deep-processing products including lemon oil, lemon pectin, lemon hand sanitizer, lemon juice spray-dried powder, lemon-notoginseng capsules, lemon lozenges, lemon fermented fruit wine, lemon holy wine, and lemon tea.
