Cistanche Factory Find in China

Cistanche industry taps potential and is ready to go

According to Tu Pengfei, a professor at the School of Pharmacy, Peking University, the industrial potential of Cistanche has not been effectively tapped. At present, the total scale of the national Cistanche industry is about 20.6 billion yuan, but the development level of the entire industry is relatively low. Fully open with great growth potential.

 "I have been engaged in the research of artificial inoculation of Cistanche in Xinjiang for more than 30 years. It can be said with certainty that the artificial planting technology of Cistanche in Xinjiang has no major problems. As long as it is continuously improved and demonstrated and promoted, it can form a support for industrial development. At present, the Cistanche industry in Xinjiang The problem of "stuck neck" is in the downstream processing, production and sales links, so far there is no product that is well-known in the market, and influential leading companies are even rarer." Tu Pengfei said.

 According to statistics, there are currently about 49 medicines and foods developed from Cistanche deserticola across the country, and Xinjiang is still blank in these two fields.

There are 38 healthcare products developed from Cistanche deserticola across the country, including 8 in Xinjiang. In addition, the production capacity of Cistanche deserticola extract is mainly concentrated in Shaanxi, Sichuan, Guangdong, Shandong and other places. Xinjiang, as the largest supplier of raw materials, has no production capacity for decoction pieces, and only does primary processing in the production area.

 Tu Pengfei believes that the launch of multiple Cistanche research and development projects in Xinjiang this year will be very helpful in breaking through the constraints of the downstream industrial chain.

Xinjiang should formulate a development plan for the Cistanche industry as soon as possible, scientifically and rationally plan the industrial development path, support and strengthen leading enterprises, and actively carry out demonstration and promotion, so that the Cistanche industry can reach a higher level and embark on the road of high-quality development.

 The reporter learned that at present, Xinjiang has made important progress in the standardized planting of Cistanche. In February of this year, the national standard "Technical Regulations for Cistanche Cultivation" began to be implemented. The standard was drafted and completed by Xinjiang researchers in three years, and standardized the inoculation, harvesting, and field management of Cistanche. In the future, the standards will be gradually implemented, which will guide the Cistanche industry to develop in the direction of standardization, scale and industrialization.

  "Last year, my country issued the "Guidelines for the Development of the National Sand Industry", which proposed scientific protection and restoration of desert ecosystems, further guided the rational and appropriate use of resources in sandy areas, and promoted the sustainable development of population, resources and environment in sandy areas." It pointed out the direction for the representative sand industry.” Xinjiang should raise Cistanche to the height of ecological industry, integrate artificial planting, product development,

Sand prevention and control, ecological construction, saline soil improvement and development, and development and utilization of parasitic plants are organically combined, and with the help of science and technology to promote agriculture, the Cistanche industry has become an industry that enriches the people and has become the brightest business card in the sand industry in Xinjiang.

 In recent years, the sand industry represented by Cistanche has developed rapidly in our region. The desert resources that no one cares about in the past are becoming the sweet pastry for ordinary people in Xinjiang to increase their income and become rich with the blessing of science and technology.

Xinjiang is the province with the largest desert area in my country, accounting for nearly 60% of the desert area in my country. Relying on key projects such as the "Three North Shelterbelts" and returning farmland to forests and grasslands, Xinjiang has actively promoted the ecological-economic compound sand industry development model while curbing the desertification process and ensuring ecological improvement. Win-win. In addition to Cistanche, which is widely planted in northern and southern Xinjiang, desert roses in Yutian County, desert protein mulberry in Jinghe County, and seabuckthorn in Qinghe County have also formed a certain industrial scale.

  At present, a large number of sand industry products such as feed, medicine, health care products, cosmetics, beverages, and fruits have been developed in various parts of Xinjiang. This has promoted the development of related industries such as planting, processing, storage, transportation, and sales, and the sand industry chain has been continuously extended. Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of my country's Chinese herbal medicine market, the Chinese herbal medicine industry in Xinjiang's sandy land has grown rapidly.

  The sand industry is a complex system engineering, which cannot be separated from scientific concepts and methods, otherwise it will not only be difficult to obtain ideal benefits, but may also cause damage to the fragile environment. Therefore, the sand industry is defined as a knowledge-intensive emerging industry. Only with the support of science and technology can the sand industry achieve a win-win situation of economic and ecological benefits on barren land.

  The sand industry in Xinjiang is still in the extensive development stage, with a low level of industrialization, a short industrial chain, and a small market influence. There are more than 70,000 enterprises engaged in the sand industry across the country. Compared with them, the number of sand industry enterprises in Xinjiang is relatively small, and there are only more than 30 large-scale leading enterprises, which is extremely disproportionate to Xinjiang's rich desert resources.

  In 2022, my country issued the "Forest and Grass Industry Development Plan (2021-2025)", and the sand industry was listed as one of the 12 key areas for the development of the forest and grass industry during my country's "14th Five-Year Plan". Bring rare opportunities. Xinjiang should seize development opportunities, further enhance the overall technical strength of the sand industry, actively explore a scientific development model of the sand industry, and strive to turn the sand industry into a technologically emerging industry, so as to drive more people to increase their income and become rich, so that "Pingsha will never be inhabited for thousands of miles" The desert also harvests "gold and silver mountains".
