(250312) -- LONGLI, March 12, 2025 (Xinhua) -- This photo taken on Oct. 15, 2024 shows Wu Guangrong harvesting oil tea camellia fruits at the ecological park in Longli County, southwest China's Guizhou Province. Wu Guangrong, born in Fangxiang Township of Guizhou Province, has been engaged in the landscaping industry for many years since he graduated from a forestry vocational school in 2001.

With a special affection for forestry, he contracted a barren mountain of 4,000 mu (about 659 acres) in a village in Longli County in 2013 and gradually developed it into an ecological park mainly planting oil tea camellia, supplemented by greening seedlings, high-quality fruits and forest farming.

Recently, Wu's ecological park has become a pillar industry for local rural revitalization, not only transforming barren mountains green, but also providing jobs for local villagers. (Xinhua)
