Juxian county in Rizhao, Shandong province has been promoting rural revitalization through its modern agriculture industrial park.

As of the end of April, the agriculture park had received a total investment of 2.99 billion yuan ($418 million), with 95 enterprises setting up their operations in the area and employing 33,000 farmers, according to officials.

Designed by the Anhui Agricultural Engineering Design Institute Co, the agriculture park highlights local advantages in vegetable and traditional Chinese medicine production. The park has also developed a complete industrial chain covering production, processing and marketing.

The agriculture park has adopted new generation of information technologies such as the mobile internet, big data, cloud computing and the internet of things to collect and record the full life cycle information of agricultural products and to build an intelligent agriculture data platform.

Juxian county has attached great importance to the introduction and training of talents. It has established ties with universities and institutes to provide intellectual support for the development of the agriculture park and rural e-commerce.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the local government has taken a series of measures to help enterprises resume production while continuing epidemic prevention and control efforts.

For example, a grid service management system has been established to resolve issues such labor shortages, logistical problems and supply shortages, said a local official.
