On May 29, members of the Xintiandi Cooperative were busy harvesting fresh peaches branded "Liangting Fresh" from a local orchard in Wangwan village, Liangting town, Guangshan county, Xinyang city. In recent years, Guangshan has promoted large-scale peach orchards tailored to local conditions, encouraging cluster planting and supporting major growers to expand production.

The county now boasts over 60,000 mu (around 4,000 hectares) of peach orchards. By integrating cooperatives, industries, production bases, and local farmers, along with land transfers and equity dividends, the peach industry has become a key driver of rural income growth and agricultural development.
