　　“Mangeng” means “prosperity and flourishing” in Chinese, and it is home to the Dai people — an ethnic group known as the “water tribe” — who have lived and thrived here for generations. Advanced concepts of ecological conservation are preserved in the Dai villages, and the area’s superior natural resources and ecological environment have been maintained to this day.

　　Since ancient times, Mangeng has produced tribute rice, which was offered to Buddhist temples, monks, and local chieftains. Today, drawing on historical and cultural heritage, modern agricultural science, and the meticulous cultivation of the Dai people, it produces premium tribute rice that boasts a pleasant aroma, soft and delicious taste, and pure quality — all presented as a gift to society.
