Feng Dan's output

Feng Dan has a long history of planting in Tongling. According to historical research, the production of peony bark in Fenghuangshan area developed to a considerable scale in Chongzhen period (1628- 1644). By the Qing Dynasty, the triangle Dongshan and Xishan of Phoenix Mountain had developed into a famous peony bark producing area in China, and Feng Dan had also become a rare export specialty. According to the Records of Tongling County compiled in Qing Dynasty, the production of peony bark is listed. According to "Native products, ginger, garlic, ramie, peony bark, etc., although there are people who serve Jia, they are mostly sellers in distant markets", during the Tongzhi period (1862~ 1872), the market price of peony bark in Tongling was once tight, and the market price of peony bark was nearly "ten thousand kilograms of rice is easy to bear". During the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, since then, due to the turbulent situation, it was difficult to transport and sell peony bark, and the output of peony bark decreased year by year. In 1949, Tongling Feng Dan only produced 2 1 ton. After liberation, the people's government attached great importance to the production of peony bark. Since 1953, the production of peony bark has been listed as a national unified purchase and marketing material, with stable price and large demand at home and abroad. It's 1985. The output reached 1 13.9 tons, 1992, 59 1 ton,1995,937 tons, and reached 1 140 tons in 2000. From liberation to 1980s, Peony bark was purchased by the National Chinese Medicinal Materials Company. In 1990s, many individual drug dealers participated in distribution. 1992, the Ministry of Agriculture awarded China Southern Peony Commodity Base in Fenghuangshan District of xinqiao town, which made the peony planting and production in our city develop by leaps and bounds. At present, there are ecological peony gardens 10000 mu, with an annual output of peony bark 1000 tons, including 700 tons in Feng Dan. At the end of 1990s, due to the financial crisis in Southeast Asia, the price of peony bark fell sharply.
