Autumn hills aflame: Broom grass fuels village prosperity

01:03

It is harvest season in Liulin County, Shanxi Province, where hillsides are ablaze with the fiery red hues of broom grass. The broom grass is the Kochia plant, which can be dried and tied together to create brooms. The vibrant plants not only paint the countryside in autumn colors but also help locals boost their incomes. So far, the village has planted around 12 hectares of broom grass, building a full industry chain from planting, processing and transport to sales.
