Focusing on the features of "selenium - rich + rare", in recent years, the characteristic agriculture in Muchuan has been thriving, and agricultural modernization has been developing towards new and better directions. Currently, it is the prime time for spring tea picking. The milk - white tea in Desheng Village, Wusheng Township has entered the picking period. On the high mountains, patches of milky - white tender buds inject "golden momentum" into rural revitalization.
Recently, when visiting the milk - white tea industrial park of Sichuan Defengzhide Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. in Group 6, Desheng Village, Wusheng Township, the white - tea industrial park at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters is shrouded in clouds and mist. More than 20 tea - pickers are shuttling among the tea ridges. Under the guidance of the tea leaf administrators, they are carefully picking the precious milky - white tender buds. "My family rented out 15 mu of land and earns 4,500 yuan a year. Our family works here, and the annual income is about 40,000 yuan," said Wang Zhengchang, a villager in Desheng Village.
It is understood that milk - white tea is a rare tea variety. Its leaves are covered with a layer of milky - white fluff. After brewing, it has a soft and delicate aroma. It is named for its fresh, mellow, and refreshing taste with a faint milky flavor and is known as the "white moonlight in tea". It needs to be picked during the 30 - day albino period around the Qingming Festival every year. Relying on the 1,200 - mu high - mountain tea garden in Desheng Village, Wusheng Township, Sichuan Defengzhide Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. has constructed a closed - loop of the entire industrial chain of planting, processing, and sales, and is fully committed to creating the "Xiaojie" milk - white tea brand for the high - end consumer market to maximize the product value.
"The company has more than 1,200 mu of its own tea gardens, with full - process closed - loop management to prevent external pollution. From planting, picking to processing, we use traditional and modern tea - making techniques. The 'Xiaojie' milk - white tea is famous for its freshness, mellowness, sweetness, and smoothness. At present, our 'Xiaojie' milk - white tea is sold all over the country, with a retail price of 3,000 to 20,000 yuan per jin," introduced Wang Daizhen, the deputy general manager of the company.
"In order to increase the income of the people, Desheng Village has transformed more than 1,000 mu of low - yield forests and some idle land in the village by striving for funds from higher - level authorities and attracting external investment. Sichuan Defengzhide Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. was introduced to plant milk - white tea, which has increased the rent income and labor income of the people. The annual income has increased by more than 5,000 yuan. At the same time, the milk - white tea garden has also become the venue for the next - step development of research, study, team - building and other projects by the strong - village company in Desheng Village," said Dan Kai, the first secretary of Desheng Village.
Based on the positioning of "green, ecological, and organic", Desheng Village, through the model of "rent increase + labor income increase + collective dividend", has actively introduced investors, transformed thousands of mu of low - yield forests into standardized milk - white tea planting bases. The land rent of villagers increases every five years, achieving continuous income growth. The village collective economy has an annual income increase of 80,000 yuan. At the same time, it has driven more than 100 people to work nearby, with an average household income increase of more than 5,000 yuan. In the next step, Desheng Village will further improve the mechanism of connecting farmers and bringing them along, actively explore the integration of "research and study + tea - tourism", actively innovate new forms of rural tourism, promote the integrated development of agriculture, culture, and tourism, and promote the growth of the village collective economy and the increase of farmers' income.
