Luozhuang District: Raspberry Industry
LINYI, China, Nov. 28, 2023 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/--

In the Luozhuang District of Linyi City, Shandong Province, it took two years 
to study the growth conditions and industrial development of raspberries. 
Following site selection, seedling selection, planting, management, and 
cultivation, over 150 acres of raspberries have taken root and begun to grow in 
the Luozhuang District, setting a model for the "northern fruit transplanted to 
the south."

Raspberry is a kind of perennial deciduous shrub fruit tree belonging to the 
Rubus genre of Rosaceae family. It comes in various colors, such as red, black, 
yellow and purple, and boasts a delicious flavor with a subtle balance of 
sweetness and sourness, along with a strong fruit aroma, making it an excellent 
dietary supplement. Large areas of the fruit are grown in northern provinces 
such as the three provinces of Northeast China, Hebei and Inner Mongolia. The 
products are sold to countries and regions such as Europe, America, Russia and 
South Korea. At present, more than 150 mu of raspberry trees are grown in the 
Luozhuang District of Linyi, yielding a comprehensive benefit of 5,000 - 10,000 
yuan per mu, laying a solid foundation for promoting agricultural growth in the 
district.
