Ten villages and towns in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region were listed on Aug 6 to carry out exemplary construction in the agricultural industry among 254 towns and villages nationwide by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and the Ministry of Finance.

The selected villages and towns will receive a fund of 11.54 million yuan ($1.7 million) to boost agricultural development and upgrading, which will further reduce poverty and increase grain production.

Mangchang town in Hechi's Nandan county aims to promote rural development through agricultural transformation and upgrading. Abundant in rice production, the town will push forward stereoscopic leisure and sightseeing agriculture.

The town has brought out various themes of paddy field art since 2013, promoting the planting of rice and cultivation of fish and ducks together, in order to increase farmers' income and revitalize the rural poverty alleviation industry.
