SHANGHAI, Oct 25 (Bernama-AsiaNet) — For the highest quality produce, from restaurants to kitchen tables, green, organic, and fresh are the standard. The concept of “green” guarantees a certain quality of agricultural product, while flavor adds to the market value. In this regard, Chongming produce has a clear advantage as high-quality soil leads to high-quality crops.
Chongming’s soil contains much less cadmium, mercury, arsenic, lead, chromium, copper, nickel and zinc. It’s in line with the standard of the Ministry of Agriculture, with over 70 percent of Chongming’s farmland using high-quality or above average soil.
