Village in Tibet autonomous region uses local advantages to boost economic growth

Kundrub, a village official, said in order to make good use of land resources, 30 households from the village started planting the Tunisian pomegranate in 2017 on 8.4 hectares of land. They harvested the fruits in 2022, and the village had 9.3 hectares of land planted with pomegranate again in the same year.

"Last year, thanks to the pomegranate plantation project, each household of the village received an average income of 3,000 yuan," Kundrub added.

In addition, the village's abundant forest resources also provide a source of income for the villagers.
