Hongyingzi Sorghum: The Backbone of Guizhou's Prosperous Wine Industry

Every August, the Chishui River's banks in Guizhou, China, become a vibrant tapestry of Hongyingzi sorghum, crucial for crafting the region's renowned sauce-flavored wine.

Nearly 3 million mu of this drought-tolerant crop flourish across Guizhou, generating substantial income for local farmers, particularly in Renhuai City where over 50,000 households benefit.

Unified farming efforts, coupled with mechanized services, enhance production efficiency, solidifying sorghum as the cornerstone of Guizhou's burgeoning wine industry and local economic growth.
