A village Party chief in southwest China's Sichuan Province has helped develop the rose plantation industry in the county of Xiaojin, which boosts the income of nearly 20,000 people.

Chen Wanghui, who leads the Maoshui Village administered by the county, is also a delegate to the upcoming 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC).

Led by Chen, the local people gave up low-value-added crops such as potatoes and beans and began to grow roses.

Xiaojin County boasts abundant sunlight and significant temperature differences between day and night, which are good for rose planting.

Today, under the leadership of the local government, the total area of rose planting and production has reached 15,000 mu (1,000 hectares), covering 13 townships and 46 villages.
