Tiandong County and Tianyang County, the first hometown of mangoes in China, live next to each other and belong to Baise City, an old revolutionary area in Guangxi. Baise City is located in the hinterland of Youjiang River Valley, which is one of the three best tropical monsoon regions in China, with no typhoon in summer and no frost in winter. Known as "natural greenhouse, granary, vegetable garden and orchard", it is the most suitable and unique natural area for planting mangoes.
Development history
Mango in Tiandong has a long history and was paid tribute to the imperial court as a famous local product as early as the Song and Yuan Dynasties. 1985, Tiandong County has vigorously developed mango cultivation, established the position of establishing a mango commodity production base in Youjiang Valley, and regarded the construction of mango commodity base as a pillar industry to revitalize Tiandong's rural economy and accelerate the people in the old areas to get rid of poverty and become rich. Since then, mango planting in Tiandong has started to develop on a large scale, gradually forming a famous mango producing area in China.
Entering Tiandong County, in the four towns of Ma Ping, Xiangzhou, Fung Lam and Lin Si in Youjiang River Basin, you can see not only large tracts of "Bamboo Sea" and "Sugarcane Sea", but also large tracts of "Mango Sea". Many mango trees grow in front of farmers' houses, schools and government courtyards. Tiandong people opened the door to see mango trees and kept company with mango trees. In the process of expanding the planting scale, Tiandong County has made great efforts to build five high-quality mango production bases, namely, off-season mango production base, sightseeing orchard and fine mango production base, Coatman high-quality mango production base and export mango production base, giving full play to the role of demonstration and promoting the continuous upgrading and development of mango industry. "Mango is ripe! Mango is ripe ... with a sweet feeling, put on a smiling face ... "In Tiandong, no matter the elderly or school-age children, you can sing this song" Mango is ripe ".
