County turns focus of reed industry from paper to palate, Zhang Zhao reports.
In Yuanjiang city, Hunan province, reed shoots are not only a traditional part of the local diet - they also reflect local economic restructuring aimed at developing environmentally sustainable industries.
The city in the Dongting Lake area is touted as the country's largest reed producing region, covering more than 20,000 hectares with an annual production of half a million metric tons.
