Kaiyang county in Guiyang, the capital city of Southwest China's Guizhou province, signed a cooperation agreement for a rural industrial revitalization project with Guiyang Agricultural Investment Development Group on April 19.

The project is reportedly of great significance for accelerating the development of agricultural modernization in Kaiyang, building a modern production, supply and marketing system for agricultural products and promoting the overall development of the county's agricultural and rural areas.

Wang Zuze, general manager of the group, introduced the group's completed projects and those that are still under construction in Kaiyang.

The group has invested more than 2 billion yuan ($308 million) in projects in Kaiyang, covering areas such as planting and breeding, intensive processing of agricultural products and the sale of agricultural products.

The new partnership will focus on modern agriculture, including the development of characteristic industry projects, the planting of high-quality agricultural products, high-standard farmland development and selenium-rich agricultural specialty product development and market promotion.

The collaboration is expected to lay a solid industrial foundation for Kaiyang's rural revitalization.

Tang Yue, chairman of the group, said that Kaiyang has made achievements in promoting poverty alleviation, rural industrial revolution and the improvement of people's livelihoods. He said he hopes that the cooperation between the two sides will bring mutual benefits and help Kaiyang consolidate poverty alleviation achievements and promote rural revitalization.

Wang Qiyun, Party secretary of the county committee, promised that the county would make efforts to improve the business environment and offer high-quality services.
