Good results.

The forest coverage rate of Qianjiang District in Chongqing City is 68%. It is a national sericulture biological industry base, an advantageous area for agricultural products with Chinese characteristics, and the hometown of sericulture in China. The Qianjiang sericulture silk base is large-scale, with standard mulberry gardens covering 80% of townships and streets.
