Shengtianxiang Golden Pear Base in Nanchen Village, Xingcun Town

　　The provincial-level agricultural tourism demonstration site — the Shengtianxiang Golden Pear Base in Xingcun Town is situated in Nanchenjiayu Village, Xingcun Town. It primarily focuses on the cultivation, storage, sales, and breeding of high-quality golden pear varieties. It is a comprehensive agricultural product cultivation and processing enterprise integrating the planting, selection, and processing of premium golden pears. The base currently employs 60 staff members, with fixed assets totaling 28 million yuan. Facilities include water-saving irrigation systems, processing and packaging workshops, storage warehouses, and a 3,000-ton constant-temperature cold storage. The pear plantation covers an area of 1,500 mu, of which 600 mu are in full production. In 2012, the total output of golden pears reached 2,400 tons, generating sales revenue of 5 million yuan.

　　In October 2008, the base established and registered the "Shengtianxiang" Planting Professional Cooperative. It has formed long-term technical development and cooperation relationships with Shandong Agricultural University and the Shandong Fruit Research Institute, and has set up a specialized technical service team. By adopting a unified management model — including providing seedlings, technical services, production materials, as well as centralized processing, packaging, and sales — the base has continuously improved its standardization and industrialization levels. It has been successively approved as a forestry industrialization leading enterprise in Shandong Province, an agricultural leading enterprise in Jining City, and was designated as a Shandong Provincial Agricultural Tourism Demonstration Site in December 2010. The "Shengtianxiang" brand golden pears produced at the base are of excellent quality, having won gold awards at the 5th and 8th China Forestry Products Trade Fairs. In September 2006, the pears received green food certification from the China Green Food Development Center, and in January 2011, they were certified as organic food by China. Currently, the base is planning and constructing the Pear Expo Park eco-tourism project, aiming to develop a modern ecological tourism area that integrates a cultural exhibition zone, a pear village folk and farming experience zone, a leisure wellness culture zone, a modern circular agriculture demonstration zone, and a traditional culture sightseeing zone.

　　From April 12 to 16 this year, the city-wide Pear Garden Spring Opera Competition was successfully held here. As one of the events in the Sishui Spring–Summer Flower Viewing Festival series, the competition featured five exciting performances, allowing visitors from across the region to enjoy the charm of historical and traditional cultural arts while sightseeing.
