The total yield of sweet potato in Beijing is over 32.4 million kg

Beijing Youth Daily learned from Beijing Agricultural Technology Promotion Station that this year, the planting area of sweet potato in the city reached 18000 mu, slightly higher than last year, with a total output of over 32.4 million kg. Recently, the city held a Beijing Tianjin Hebei sweet potato industry matchmaking meeting to build a high-quality sweet potato production and marketing service platform to meet the consumption needs of Beijing citizens. The characteristics of "big city and small agriculture" are very obvious in Beijing due to the limitation of land conditions. This year, the total output of sweet potatoes planted in Beijing is over 32.4 million kg, but there is still a big gap compared with the demand of the people, which needs to be introduced from the surrounding provinces and cities. In order to build a high-quality sweet potato production and marketing service platform, the Beijing Tianjin Hebei sweet potato industry docking meeting was held in Beijing Agricultural Technology Promotion Station, where excellent varieties, superior bases, high-quality products and excellent brands were introduced on site, and the production and marketing channels of high-quality sweet potato were widened to meet the consumption needs of Beijing citizens. Reporter of Beiqing daily learned that at present, many superior planting bases or planting parks have opened network sales channels, such as jingxianyuan, minnongrenjia, Xiaotangshan, etc. citizens can buy high-quality sweet potatoes by searching the park name on the online shopping platform.
