On March 15, 2022, CCTV's 3. 15 party exposed the health problems of local "potherb pickled cabbage", and the outside world "talked about the discoloration of Huarong pickled cabbage" for a time. Now most of the "pits" have been backfilled, and more than 200,000 cubic meters of standardized pickling tanks have been put into use; Processing enterprises retired 10, reorganized 8 companies, introduced 4 companies, and shuffled industries; Machine substitution, transparent factory and mustard tuber processing industry are moving towards standardization and industrialization.
But there are still many difficulties. Some farmers are confused about giving up their seeds temporarily because of the uncertainty of the industry, some businesses are helpless because they can only sell fresh vegetables, and some enterprises are facing the pressure of increasing costs because of the construction of standardized pickling ponds.
The mustard industry is being reborn. For Huarong, this industry, which is related to the livelihood of a quarter of the county's population, still contains unlimited business opportunities.
