Measures to revitalize the economy

Tree head

Around the production, processing, storage and sales of tea, some supporting policies have been issued, focusing on guiding and supporting "Pinghe Yangshan tea factory", "Fujian Tianyong tea", "Pinghe Qiling Qilan tea", "Pinghe jueluqilan tea" and other enterprises to build bases, promote standardized production and operation, and gradually develop into leading enterprises with "scale, grade and level".

We should actively participate in the division of labor of tea industry among provinces and cities, strengthen the cooperation with Xiamen and other regions, extend the industrial chain, and drive the development of some tea processing enterprises. For example, it will extend and develop in the direction of bag tea, instant tea, tea beverage, fruit tea, medicinal tea, tea powder, tea food and tea health products.

Pay close attention to technical transformation

Since 2006, the QS market access system has been implemented in China. For the QS market access of tea, the primary processing factories must implement the license management of tea products. Therefore, we should strengthen the rectification, organize the scattered tea farmers, set up professional cooperatives, and carry out unified management from fertilizer, pest control to processing production, so as to comprehensively improve the quality and safety of tea. At the same time, centralized training, on-site guidance and technical competition are adopted to vigorously promote the new technology of scientific management and protection and intensive processing of tea garden; courses such as introduction of advanced experience in tea planting, processing and marketing are set up to effectively guarantee the processing of all kinds of high, middle and low-grade tea to meet the national quality standards.

Create brand

Brand is the image of a product and the pass for a product to enter the market. "White bud Qilan tea" has won many certifications and honors. In 1993, it won the gold award of the second China patent new technology and New Product Expo. It was appraised by the tea quality supervision, inspection and testing center of the Ministry of agriculture and won the title of excellent product of the Ministry of agriculture. But this is just the beginning of brand building. In the face of the new situation of global economy, "white bud Qilan tea" needs to make great efforts in production scale, standardization, product quality, marketing service and other aspects in order to build a tea brand with high popularity and strong market competitiveness at home and abroad. Integrate the existing small, scattered and poor tea enterprises, and implement unified standards for high-quality tea produced by tea farmers: unified production guidance, unified brand trademark, unified quality standard, unified advertising, unified wholesale and unified tax payment, so as to promote the standardization of tea. At the same time, we are willing to increase investment and carry out various forms of advertising and promotion activities, such as taking part in major tea events at home and abroad and evaluation activities, so as to improve the popularity of tea.

Live circulation

In Qiling Township, a tea street or tea professional market with a wide range of radiation, considerable scale and complete categories will be established to attract foreign tea traders to wholesale tea in this professional market. At the same time, tea professional cooperatives, production and marketing associations and other kinds of tea intermediary service organizations should be established to provide market information for farmers, improve the market system of agricultural products, and realize the integration of trade, industry and agriculture and the one-stop strategy of production, supply and marketing.
