Qixia is not only the "apple capital", but also one of the main producing areas of Yantai cherry. Qixia Miaohou Town Party Committee has innovated the "town party committee + village party branch + federation + company" model to develop the large cherry industry.
The association cooperated with the Shandong Provincial Fruit Research Institute to establish a sweet cherry detoxification dwarf rootstock laboratory and a new sweet cherry new variety and new technology promotion base. With the help of the Internet, local seedling farmers have also "moved" large cherry seedlings to the Internet for promotion and sales.
