  Oil tea is the main woody edible oil-producing tree species in Changshan County. Changshan is honored as the "Hometown of Oil Tea." It has a long cultivation history.

  Tea oil is the best type of edible oil. Its main components are unsaturated fatty acids, primarily oleic acid and linoleic acid, accounting for over 90% of its content, with no cholesterol. Therefore, consuming it does not increase cholesterol levels in human blood serum, nor is it prone to causing arteriosclerosis or elevated blood pressure. It also contains no aflatoxins, which are carcinogenic to humans.

  Tea seed cake has a wide range of uses and high value. Tests show that tea seed cake contains 25% crude fat and 10% saponin. The defatted and desaponified cake meal contains 14% crude protein. Saponin, crude protein, and crude fat are all important industrial raw materials.
