What we are seeing now is a 10,000-mu square bamboo forest located in Jinfoshan, Nanchuan, Chongqing.

Around the Mid-Autumn Festival, this quiet forest of bamboo shoots ushered in the busiest moment of the year. Villagers from many nearby villages will come here to pick the gifts of nature.

　　Now the area of ​​square bamboo planted here has increased from tens of thousands of mu a few years ago to 240,000 mu this year, and the yield of square bamboo shoots has also increased by more than 8,000 tons.

Although the season for picking bamboo shoots is only one month, it can increase the income of bamboo shoot farmers by an average of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan per household, achieving a double harvest of ecological and economic benefits.
