Located in a remote, mountainous area experiencing severe rocky desertification, Rong'an County covers largely barren land that makes traditional farming difficult. However, its harsh conditions are ideal for growing sweet wormwood, which thrives in arid environments and can withstand drought. Once dried, the plant is processed to extract artemisinin, which is then made into medicine and shipped to Africa to help local communities fight malaria.

Rong'an is a major production base of artemisinin at home and abroad. The annual production of artemisinin exceeds 100 tonnes, accounting for a quarter of the global total.

In recent years, companies, planting bases, scientific research institutes, cooperatives and local farmers in Rong'an have been coordinated to develop sweet wormwood planting to advance rural revitalization. (Xinhua/Huang Xiaobang)
