Bauhinia Green Jute Industry "Green" Africa

There is a green plant that can be used for drinking tea after processing, and can be used for refining medicinal materials. Spin Fiber itself also has natural antibacterial, anti mite and mildew resistant properties. This plant is called jute, and it can be called "a Ma Ma DUBAO". Recently, reporters visited the jute Technology Green Industrial Park of Bauhinia group in Jiangsu, and saw a large area of jute plantation. Xiang Jing, manager of Bauhinia business development department, says that jute is in its growth stage, and three or four months from maturity. Jute can grow to more than 2 meters tall after a mature period. The core product of Bauhinia Flower is made from jute, because it contains natural insoluble substances insoluble in water. It can effectively inhibit the propagation of mites, moulds and other microorganisms, and can also wash and expose them. It is very popular with domestic consumers. Therefore, Bauhinia Flower not only domestically planted jute, but also planted this kind of thermophilic plant in Africa.

Jiangsu Chinese Bauhinia textile Polytron Technologies Inc is a state-level high-tech industry integrating jute varieties breeding, fiber processing and sales, with an annual output value of nearly 1 billion yuan. It is the most innovative and innovative enterprise in China. In 2008, Bauhinia began to plant high-quality jute varieties in countries such as Africa, Benin, Nigeria and Mali. In 2010, Bauhinia signed a three party cooperation agreement with the United Nations Special Administrative Region for South South cooperation and the African Songhai organization on African Cooperation in the green jute Industrial Park of Bauhinia. In 2011, Bauhinia flower and Fujian Agriculture And Forestry University and other institutions undertook the Ministry of Commerce's aid project - the Mali agricultural technology demonstration center project. Since then, the Bauhinia group began to introduce jute planting into Africa, bringing environmental protection, green and hope to it.

The right way to choose Africa

The layout of overseas markets is particularly important, and most of the textile products are dominated by cheap labor, tariff relief policies and other advantages. clothing The target market for "going out" has been selected in Southeast Asian countries. Liu Guozhong, chairman of Bauhinia textile Polytron Technologies Inc, said China Textile and garment enterprises The overseas development has both commonalities and differences. Bauhinia has chosen overseas markets in Africa. First, it has gained dual support from both domestic and international sides. At home, the Chinese government has always been very supportive of the development of African countries. Bauhinia has built the aid project of the Ministry of Commerce of China - the Mali agricultural technology demonstration center project, which is conducive to the development of Sino African relations and has been given multiple help. Internationally, Bauhinia flowers began to enter Mali in 2010. The local agriculture minister has a special liking for jute. The ambassadors of many countries such as Zambia and Garner visited the Bauhinia Flower, and became interested in the jute green industry of Bauhinia, and invited us to invest in jute industry in Africa. The two is to enjoy preferential trade policies. In order to encourage the development of green jute industry, the Malian government has provided enterprises with a concession of 10 years from 2014 to ~2024, which can rent land at local zero rent, while jute products can also enjoy the zero tariff policy of Africa exported to Europe and the United States. The three is the plastic restriction policy in many African countries, and the jute bags made of Bauhinia flowers. textile There is a broad market prospect for sale in Africa. Since January 1, 2014, many African countries such as Nigeria and Ivory Coast have begun to ban plastic products. The green jute textile bags of Bauhinia will have broader space for development in the African market.

　 Green income brings to Africa

Jute is a high yield plant. fibre In recent years, new varieties of jute grown at 12 yuan and 230 million yuan have been widely planted in saline alkali soil, low-lying wetland and dry land without any need of large quantities of pesticides and artificial irrigating. It is of great help to improving wasteland and protecting the environment. Liu Guozhong said, "once the leader of an African country told me that the surface of plastic bags affected the environment, but because of its non degradability, it actually affects people's health. In many parts of Africa, plastic bags are seriously polluted. Trees and grass are all plastic bags. They will be eaten by livestock in the process of grazing, and will indirectly affect people's health. Mali is the only food self-sufficient country in Africa. They ban the use of plastic woven bags of rice, and jute is a very good environmental protection packaging material, so it is very popular in Mali. " According to Liu Guozhong, the Bauhinia Flower began to improve saline alkali land in 2005. In 2005, 10 thousand saline alkali soils were reformed in 2005. Through three years of jute cultivation, the waste land can be converted into fertile fields and rice is planted to promote its ecological development and sustainable development. It not only improves the local environmental problems, but also creates employment opportunities, and also promotes the export of African products. At present, Bauhinia has won the trust and support of the international agencies such as the United Nations Special Administrative Region for South South cooperation and the NRDC, and has won the "green poverty alleviation Contribution Award" awarded by the United Nations Special Administrative Region for South South cooperation.

Tackling difficulties and integrating into Africa

Investment in Africa is also faced with problems such as backward facilities in the industrial chain and inadequate supply of water and electricity. Peng Shengkui, general manager of the Bauhinia group Jin Hong (Mali), said Mali's water and electricity supply is insufficient, and most of its water resources rely on the United Nations aided construction and well drilling. Power supply relies on enterprises to buy oil to replenish electricity, especially in communications. Sometimes it takes 20 ~30 hours to send and receive an email. In addition, some problems will also be encountered. For example, although the local government welcomes the arrival of Bauhinia, it will often encounter problems such as customs clearance, security check and interception.

Liu Guozhong said: "entry into Africa, compliance with local laws and regulations, and actively integrating into local culture are also important. With the help of the business Counselor's office of the Embassy of the Republic of China, we established a cotton and jute demonstration park to actively publicize the ecological value of jute green industry, let local people understand jute products, create more employment opportunities for local people and increase the income of local residents. On the reserve of talents, Mali excellent young people are selected to further their studies in Chinese universities, improve their cultural and technical level, and promote the industry and cultural exchanges between China, Africa and China.

According to Peng Shengkui, because Bauhinia flowers and local culture and residents have a good integration, a company's materials and vehicles stopped on the road due to the failure of the fire. Mali residents sent milk and food to the vehicle crew, so that employees felt the enthusiasm and friendship of the local people.

Shoulder responsibilities and develop Africa

According to Liu Guozhong, Bauhinia Flower will set up two agricultural technology demonstration center projects in Mali, cotton and jute Planting Industrial Park bases, carrying out experimental research, technical training and publicity work such as planting, breeding technology, animal husbandry and other technologies, and improving the local agricultural production capacity and food safety level in Mali. In order to get into Africa, "Bauhinia Flower" has made a lot of preparatory planning work. Bauhinia this year has a yield of about 20000000 yuan in Mali's jute bags and jute mattress, and is expected to yield more than 200 million yuan next year. In the future, we hope to expand the European and American markets of green jute products in the good momentum of development in Africa.

He said that the development of bauhinia in overseas markets is still under exploration. Clothing enterprise In the global market with strong competitiveness, the government supports the development of original enterprises, Bauhinia flowers in Africa to develop green jute Industrial Park, and also expects to promote its "green" and "ecological" development. Bauhinia began its overseas layout, and also hoped that more Chinese textile enterprises would lead China's green textile industry to "go out". This is the value of the industrial chain created by Chinese textile enterprises, and it is also the foundation for many excellent textile enterprises to realize the Chinese dream in the future.
