On July 31, the Kailu County in Tongliao City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, received customs approval for its export chili "large base," marking the formal operation of the nation's first export chili "large base." The export registration base is a "passport" for agricultural products to go abroad and is also a crucial step in ensuring export quality. Kailu County is China's largest county-level red dried chili production base, with a planting area of 600,000 acres and an annual production of 1.75 million tons of chilies. The Tongliao Customs, under the Manzhouli Customs, based on the industrial advantages of Kailu County, has actively innovated and explored a new model of intensive supervision for export chili planting bases, which is "government-led, enterprise-responsible, industry self-discipline, and customs supervision." Currently, a total of 320,000 acres of chili planting bases in Kailu County have been included in the registration. The registered bases follow the "five unified" standardized management model, which includes unified standardized planting management, unified agricultural input management, unified pest and disease control, unified quality safety monitoring, and unified product safety traceability. These measures integrate all chili planting areas in the county with export intentions into one "large base" for export registration, forming a new model of "1+N" export chili planting base registration and supervision across the county. This approach strengthens the management level and quality safety of chili planting from the source, effectively enhancing the competitiveness and influence of Kailu chilies in the international market.
