The cultivation of panax notoginseng in Wenshan has a rich historical legacy. In recent years, Wenshan has made great efforts to promote its biopharmaceutical industry centered around panax notoginseng, encouraging farmers to engage in standardized and large-scale cultivation. Collaboration with local pharmaceutical companies has played a pivotal role in enhancing the value-added aspects of Panax notoginseng, leading to increased income for farmers and effectively contributing to rural revitalization. In 2022, the cultivation area of panax notoginseng in Wenshan exceeded 2.3 million mu (about 153,333 hectares), and the comprehensive output value of the biopharmaceutical industry based on panax notoginseng surpassed 31 billion yuan (about 4.36 billion U.S. dollars).
