In september, kim jiu, a correspondent of the hubei newspaper, entered the village of huayang, a town in the eastern bao township of the city of xiamen, and set off a “red fire” in a pile of chili fields. The red pepper is full of branches, and it is full of oil, and in the shed, two of them are green, and they are leaning up. From small-scale planting, handmade sauce stalls to scientific precipitating, deep processing chains, the village of huayang relied on this little chili to move the specialty industry step by step, and to “spicy” from the field to the “rich people's taste” of the rural renewal。

It is known that the cultivation of peppers in the village of huayang started early. In 2025, the village built up land resources and tried to plant peppers. At first, it was small in size, most of the peppers were sold directly, and the handmade pepper sauce was sold in small quantities at short notice. Insufficient processing capacity, low value added and uncertain quality — the three “mountains” are under pressure, the pepper industry remains difficult to achieve, and the village collective economy has limited revenues。
In order for industry to rise, it is necessary to move from “one-on-one” to “one-chain development”. This year, the village of huayang has taken the initiative to expand its production to 16 acres. The village officials also found the doorway: chili pepper with two strips, and chili sauce with more fragrance and more fragrance. As a result, a high standard in the village of huayang built 11 huts and planted five acres of two bars, adding to the slabs of raw materials。

Newly landed chili huts with a complete farewell to the old ruler of "watch and eat". The whole of the shed is accompanied by a smart drip irrigation system, where people are in the house, with a pointer, and the water is delivered to every pepper root. “thanks to the drip irrigation system, it saves people by 70 per cent more water than traditional flooding, and it is better suited to the need for chili growth, and the quality of peppers is higher. Science and technology are empowering to increase efficiency in field tube protection and to build the foundations of good raw materials from the source。
Plant the pepper, make the sauce, sell the price. In order to solve the difficult problems of storage, processing and narrow distribution, the village of huayang has sought $500,000 for help, raised $130,000 for its own needs and set up a 320-square square metre storage plant, which is now fully equipped and is expected to be officially operational by mid-september. The plant is only 200 metres from the chili growing base, and “harvesting is processing” becomes a reality. In the workshop, the fast-frozen freezer facilities are properly organized with cleaning, disinfection, fermentation, filling, packaging and full automation equipment. Fresh peppers, once extracted, are frozen at short notice, guaranteeing both the marketing of fresh peppers at wrong peaks and the production of finely processed quantities of pepper sauce. Standardized, automated production lines are a complete departure from the embarrassing combination of handmade sauces, short-term warranty and inadequate health security, with the maximum capacity of the factory reaching 2,000 bottles of pepper sauce per day. “when it used to be handmade, it took time and effort not to sell, it was now mechanized, and its production and quality were greatly improved!” the secretary of the wigand village party expressed his outrage。
Today, the village of huayang has a complete industrial chain of scientific cultivation, intelligent stewardship and standardized processing. Next, the special chili sauce in the village will be fine-tuned to the catering and retail markets, widening the distribution channels. A small paprika, a characteristic rich industry that has led to the growth of the collective economy in the village of huayang, has also injected a hot “hot engine” for rural revitalization。
