Lorraine's cordyceps planting base has an annual production capacity of up to several tons of high-quality yellow sunflower.
Yunnan has suitable geographical conditions for the growth of purple glue insects and the reproduction of host plants. It is located on a low latitude plateau with diverse climate types, mainly subtropical and tropical climates, warm and humid, and an average annual temperature ofBetween 15-23 ℃ and an annual precipitation of 800-2500 millimeters, this climate condition provides a comfortable living environment for the purple glue insect.
Lacquer production can be completed in one yearTwo generations, corresponding to two seasons. Generally, the first generation, known as the summer generation, is the period from April to May when the purple glue insect is released until September to October when the glue is harvested; The second generation, which is the winter generation, is released from September to October and harvested from April to May of the following year. The formation of these two seasons is closely related to the local climate and the growth habits of the purple gum beetle. In summer, the temperature is high and the rainfall is abundant. The host plants grow vigorously, providing sufficient sap for the purple gum beetle, promoting its rapid growth and secretion of a large amount of purple gum; The winter climate is relatively mild, which can also meet the basic conditions for the survival and secretion of purple glue insects.
The market's demand for cordycepin acid in food grade applications (such as food preservatives, candy coating agents), pharmaceutical grade applications (such as enteric coated drug coatings), etc. is constantly increasing, stimulating enterprises to expand production scale, improve product quality, and develop new products, thereby promoting industrial and economic development.
In the process of developing the cordycepin acid industry in Yunnan, attention is paid to ecological planting and protection of purple gum resources. By constructing a composite ecological economic system of various artificial purple gum plantations such as forest grain, forest medicine, and forest grass, the land use efficiency has been improved, and the previous single land use mode of purple gum production has been changed. This agroforestry planting model not only solves the land dispute between agriculture and forestry, but also realizes the rational utilization of agricultural and forestry resources, playing an important role in improving and protecting the ecological environment.
Yuexin's iris planting base has an annual production capacity of up to several tons of high-quality iris oil extract.
The sandy red soil area with Wenshan as the center and an altitude of about 2200 meters is suitable for the growth of iris. The local area once attempted to plant 700 acres of German iris, but due to market fluctuations, it was reduced. However, farmers continued to plant improved varieties (such as fragrant iris), forming a stable industrial chain
The sandy red soil area with Wenshan as the center and an altitude of about 2200 meters is suitable for the growth of iris. There was a trial planting of 700 acres of German iris in the local area, but due to market fluctuations, it was reduced. However, farmers continued to plant improved varieties (such as Fragrant Iris), forming a stable industrial chain.
From May to June, it enters its peak flowering period, with blue purple as the main color and extremely high ornamental value. In the autumn of the third year of planting (September to October), the roots and stems are harvested. At this time, the content of aromatic substances such as irises in the roots and stems is the highest. Fresh roots and stems need to be naturally aged for 2-3 years. After the irises are fully formed, the entire process of slicing, drying, and processing takes 3-5 years.
After aging, the rhizome slices are used to extract iris ketone, which is used in high-end perfume (such as French Chanel) and cosmetics fixatives
Iris ketone is extracted from rhizome slices after aging and used in high-end perfume (such as French Chanel) and cosmetics fixatives.
Yunnan iris is resistant to poverty and stress, suitable for planting on mountainous slopes, and can reduce soil erosion. The Wenshan base adoptsThree dimensional planting of iris and shrubs enhances soil water retention capacity.

Binchuan Xiangye Geranium essential oil contains over 40% citral, and its quality is superior to traditional production areas such as Egypt. It has been listed as a high-quality raw material by the International Spice Association.
Harvesting twice a month from March to October, with 14-16 crops harvested annually. With the help of greenhouses, an additional 2 crops can be harvested from November to December, resulting in a 20% increase in yield per acre with an annual fresh leaf production of 1.2-1.5 tons and an oil yield of 0.8% -1.2%.
The annual growth rate of the global natural spice market exceeds8%, because of its high citral content (40%+), Yunnan geranium essential oil has become the core raw material of international famous perfume and high-end skin care products. Domestic cosmetics companies purchase over 100 tons annually, with exports to Europe and Southeast Asia accounting for 60%. Farmers can increase their income through the "guaranteed purchase+premium dividend" model, such as the annual income of 18000 to 24000 yuan per mu for farmers in Binchuan, which is 5-8 times higher than traditional crops (corn); The Yuanmou Liangshan Township project has driven employment for 120 poverty-stricken households, with an average annual income increase of 12000 yuan per capita
