Agriculture

Being a former agricultural reclamation land (Chinese: 农垦; pinyin: nóngkěn), Jiansanjiang has a rich history of agriculture, and is known for having areas of chernozemic soil.[2] The city is discussed in detail in academic papers on Agriculture in China: notably China Agricultural University has an experimental station looking at rice varieties in the city.[3]

Jiansanjiang is known as China's green rice city,[4] and its Honghe farm (Chinese: 洪河农场; lit. 'grand river farm') was the first modernised farm in the whole of China, making use of agricultural drones and other technologies.[5]
