economic development

With the opening of Baotou Maoming expressway, our town will strive to create Daokou economic demonstration town, modern agricultural characteristic town and cultural and ecological tourism key town as the goal, and vigorously promote the economic development of the town.

First, we should give full play to the advantages of transportation and create Daokou economic demonstration town. Caojiang interchange of Baotou Maoming expressway is about 6km away from Gaozhou City and 300m away from the main highway of provincial highway Gaochang. According to the planning of Gaozhou City, the Caojiang interchange and Gaozhou interchange of Baotou Maoming expressway will develop into an economic zone of logistics and warehousing industry in Central China, focusing on building a comprehensive industrial zone with logistics and warehousing as the main part and taking into account the services of Commerce, tourism and transportation. In this regard, our town will build a large-scale logistics trade market (including comprehensive trade market, professional wholesale market of building materials, logistics distribution market, etc.) in the section from mankeng to pingshanpu of Gaozhou Changcheng highway (i.e. about 1km from Caojiang interchange to Gaozhou City), so as to make it a logistics distribution center in the northeast part of Gaozhou connecting Gaozhou City. In addition, the agricultural products processing plant and agricultural products storage park will be built in the section from Jiandong to shuaitang of new Gaozhou Changzhou highway (about 1km from Caojiang interchange to Changpo), so as to promote the deep processing, storage and transportation of agricultural products in villages and towns in Northeast Gaozhou.

The second is to give full play to the regional advantages and create modern agricultural characteristic towns. With a population of 80000, our town is a big agricultural town in Gaozhou. In recent years, our town has made great efforts to create agricultural brand advantages and optimize the agricultural planting structure. Huaishan potato in our town is famous for its good quality, pollution-free and green environmental protection. Red flesh pomelo is loved by the majority of consumers because of its high quality and festive pulp. In addition, there are many large vegetable growers in Hedong and Xilang, which are worthy of the name of Gaozhou vegetable basket base. However, due to the constraints of transportation and preservation technology, the sales of fruits and vegetables in our town are mostly limited to the local area, so the sales price is not high, which affects the enthusiasm of farmers to expand the scale of planting. With the opening of Baotou Maoming expressway, these fresh fruits and vegetables can be transported to the Pearl River Delta and other places for sale as soon as possible, and the sales price of agricultural products will be increased, so as to break the dilemma of most of Caojiang's agricultural products being sold locally. On the basis of promoting huixinyuan food processing to increase capital and capacity, our town will introduce large-scale agricultural products processing plants in Daokou Economic Zone, expand and strengthen the industrial chain of deep processing of agricultural products such as Huaishan potato, and increase the added value of agricultural products and farmers' employment opportunities.

Third, give full play to the advantages of human culture and create key towns of cultural and ecological tourism. Caojiang town has a profound historical and cultural heritage, many places of interest, rich tourism resources, and is blessed with the development of tourism. The heroine of Chinese lady, the famous high official, is the most beautiful scenery and charming scenery. The famous monuments of the Tang Dynasty, such as the imperial court, the tomb of the emperor, the bridge of the fallen and the temple of the fall, are listed as municipal heritage conservation units. The residential area of the 13 thousand Fort square is a three yuan courtyard, a layout of the earth port. The combination of ancient and modern, the combination of Chinese and western, the magnificent momentum, and the higher artistic appreciation price. Value. With the opening of Baotou Maoming expressway, our town will develop a historical, cultural and eco-tourism route. Through further improving various leisure, entertainment, catering and other supporting services, we will set up standardized scenic spots and strive to build a key cultural and eco-tourism town.

Push town development

In the section from Jiandong to shuaitang of new Gaozhou Changzhou highway (about 1km from Caojiang interchange to Changpo), agricultural products processing plant and agricultural products storage park will be built to promote the deep processing, storage and transportation of agricultural products in villages and towns in Northeast Gaozhou. With the opening of Baotou Maoming expressway, these fresh fruits and vegetables can be transported to the Pearl River Delta and other places for sale as soon as possible, and the sales price of agricultural products will be increased, so as to break the dilemma of most of Caojiang's agricultural products being sold locally.
