Currently, in Yingjiang County, Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan Province, 316,600 mu rice fields are about to be harvested. Aerial footage shows the fields turning a subtle golden hue, appearing especially beautiful under the sunlight.

As a national major grain-producing county, Yingjiang has seen robust agricultural development in recent years. "This year, in our rural revitalization demonstration park in Yingjiang County, we implemented technologies such as full mechanization of rice production and green pest control measures, which have enhanced both the yield and quality of rice," said a relevant official from the Agricultural and Rural Affairs Bureau of Yingjiang County.

In 2024, the total rice planting area in the county has reached 316,600 mu, with an expected total output of over 130,000 tons, showing increases in both area and yield compared to last year.
