In recent years, based on its resource advantages, Yizhou district in Hechi has vigorously promoted the development of industries, innovated and optimized the industrialized business model, as well as boosted people's incomes as part of its poverty alleviation efforts.

The district has created demonstration bases for characteristic industries, such as pepper, walnuts, silkworm, sugarcane, special breeding, and leisure tourism, to expand their industry scale and achieve more benefits. At present, the district has 179 modern agricultural demonstration zones and plans to build 75 more in 2020.
