Economic Daily News reporter Huang Junyi learned from the National Camellia Industry Development Meeting held on the 16th that China’s current Camellia oleifera planting area has reached 68 million mu, with 14 million mu of high-yield Camellia oleifera forest, 627,000 tons of camellia oil, and the total output value of the camellia industry. According to the State Forestry and Grassland Administration, in recent years, China’s policy support for the camellia oleifera industry has continued to increase, and the planting area and output of camellia oleifera have been gradually increased.
