Historical evolution

In the second half of 1958, in order to implement the spirit of the instructions of the State Council, the Party committee of the autonomous region and the people's Commission of the people's Republic of China on the development of the production of traditional Chinese medicine, tap the treasure house of traditional Chinese medicine, develop the cause of medicine and health, vigorously carry out the production and scientific research of traditional Chinese medicine, and begin to prepare for the construction of Guangxi drug testing ground.

On February 14, 1959, with the approval of the higher authorities, Guangxi drug testing center was established. On the evening of March 10, the establishment meeting of Guangxi drug testing center was held. Xie Xinting, deputy director of the Department of health, attended the meeting and announced the formal establishment of Guangxi drug testing center. In December 1959, Guangxi Institute of medicine was established with the approval of the people's Commission of the autonomous region. Guangxi Pharmaceutical Research Institute and Guangxi pharmaceutical laboratory work together, a set of leadership.

In 1962, in order to implement the eight character policy of "adjusting, consolidating, enriching and improving" of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the Guangxi People's Commission of the people's Republic of China at that time approved the cancellation of Guangxi Pharmaceutical Research Institute, retained 35 technicians, merged them in the drug testing ground, and continued to carry out the research work.

In 1963, in order to carry out the call of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China that "the whole Party and the whole people work together to develop agriculture and grain production in a big way", and the instructions of the district Party Committee on reducing the urban population, further reducing the staff and workers, saving the national financial expenditure, and supporting the agricultural front, according to the experience in the production of medicinal materials over the past few years, it was considered that it was not appropriate to continue to produce medicinal materials with all the workers and land, and it was necessary to turn to the production of grain Lord.

On May 14, 1963, Guangxi District People's Committee (63) huiweizi No.6 approved and transmitted the report on reducing the scale of drug testing field and changing it to Drug Research Institute issued by the District Department of health, and agreed to reduce the scale of drug testing field and change it to drug research institute, taking drug research as the main task, and planting some medicinal materials according to the labor situation. The staff establishment is set at 150 (435 employees, 150 reserved and 285 streamlined). Among the 290 workers originally assigned to the liberation brigade of Santang Township, Yongning County, except for 30 who have been transferred to the medicinal materials production team and continue to grow medicine, the rest are assigned to grow grain and change the ownership of the whole people to collective ownership.

On October 10, 1963, Nanning Municipal People's Committee (63) Nanhui Zi No. 310 "letter on Approving the transfer of collective farmers led by the District Drug Research Institute to the leaders of Santang commune" agreed to transfer 170 labor force and 247 family members of six production teams, including Jiangqiao, Dawu, Lu'an, Ertang, Nahe and Nadao, originally led by the District Drug Research Institute, to the leaders of Santang commune (later) According to the requirements of favorable production and farmers, Nanning Municipal People's Committee agreed to change it to Changyu commune. On October 19, the general office of Guangxi District People's Commission (63) office secretary No. 456 approved that Nanning Municipal People's Commission had agreed to receive the collective farmers allocated by the District Drug Research Institute, and asked the Department of health to contact Nanning directly to handle the handover procedures. On December 9, Changyu commune and Institute of Medicine held a representative meeting, which was officially handed over to the leaders of Changyu commune (in order to facilitate leadership, the commune established Jiangqiao brigade in Jiangqiao to lead the above six production teams).

In December 1970, Guangxi Revolutionary Committee approved the merger of Guangxi Institute of medicine, Guangxi Institute for drug control, Guangxi Institute of traditional Chinese medicine and Guangxi martyrs cemetery to establish Guangxi Institute of medicine. The Institute consists of outpatient department, pharmaceutical factory, Nanyao station and medicinal botanical garden. Hongwen and Lixin production teams (Baifen and Naqi were merged and renamed Hongwen team, and Napu was renamed Lixin team) were managed by the medicinal botanical garden. Under the leadership of Guangxi Institute of medicine, the medicinal botanical garden has set up Party branch office and business office, whose main tasks are introduction and cultivation of medicinal plants, research on High-yield Cultivation of Guangxi medicinal materials, and production of some grain.

On January 16, 1973, Qiao Xiaoguang, Secretary of the district Party committee, gave instructions to "put the two production teams under the unified management of the medical institute" for trial implementation. After the two production teams were managed by the Institute of medicine, the collective nature and organizational form of the teams remained unchanged. The land, rations and wages of the two teams were uniformly arranged by the Institute of medicine, and the farmers of the two teams became the workers of the Institute of medicine who were not national workers. This provides conditions for the development planning of medicinal botanical garden.

In August 1981, the Party group of the Department of Health decided to adjust the organization of Guangxi Institute of medicine. The Institute of medicine was separated from the Institute for drug control, and the three units of Maoqiao (Chinese herbal medicine school, pharmaceutical factory, medicinal botanical garden) under the Institute of medicine were partially opened. On September 11 of the same year, the Guangxi Institute of medicine was renamed as Guangxi Institute of medicine by the approval of Guangxi editorial board member (81) No. 95 The Institute of traditional Chinese medicine of the Zhuang Autonomous Region also approved that the school of Chinese herbal medicine and Guangxi Institute of traditional Chinese medicine should be separated and directly led by the Department of health of the Zhuang Autonomous Region, and that the affiliated medicinal botanical garden, pharmaceutical factory and Primary School of Guangxi Institute of traditional Chinese Medicine should be allocated to the leaders of the school of Chinese herbal medicine (the district Editorial Board approved the change of the school of Chinese herbal medicine into Guangxi Pharmaceutical School in document guibian [1983] No. 23 on August 5, 1983).

In December 1981, with the approval of the Department of health, Guangxi Institute of medicine medicinal botanical garden was renamed Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region medicinal botanical garden, which was managed by Guangxi Chinese herbal medicine school. On July 11, 1984, the Party group of the Department of health agreed that the medicinal botanical garden should be directly managed by the Department of health. However, since it has never been finalized, the seal used is still the seal of "medicinal botanical garden of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Institute of medicine".

On January 4, 1985, the Department of health of the autonomous region reported to the government of the autonomous region the request for instructions on the restoration of the independent establishment of Guangxi Medicinal Botanical Garden, requesting that Guangxi Medicinal Botanical Garden should be regarded as a two-tier organization directly under the Department of health of the autonomous region, and be directly led by the Department of health. With the approval of the higher authorities, the seal of Guangxi Medicinal Botanical Garden was officially opened on April 1 On April 22, the Department of health of the Autonomous Region announced below that the business of Guangxi Medicinal Botanical Garden should be led by the science and Technology Department of the Department of health; on May 14, the establishment committee of the autonomous region agreed below that the original medicinal botanical garden of Guangxi Medical Research Institute should be renamed Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region medicinal botanical garden. It is a department level institution with 148 personnel (excluding the number of two production teams). On December 21, 1986, Guangxi District Science and Technology Commission and editorial board members jointly issued the following "notice on the classification of scientific research institutions directly under the district", and Guangxi Medicinal Botanical Garden was designated as a scientific research institution of social public welfare. On March 23, 1988, Guangxi Medicinal Botanical Garden was approved as a public institution at the level of deputy county (Department) by the establishment committee of Guangxi Autonomous Region (GBR) in GBR [1988] No. 48, with 296 public institutions.
