Wuxi is one of the four famous peach producing areas in China, and Yangshan is the main peach producing area in Wuxi. Peaches have been planted in Yangshan for more than 800 years. As early as the LULU Bridge, which was built by Baoqing in the Southern Song Dynasty for three years, there was a sentence of "Wild geese flying by the peach". Ming Wanli's "Wuxi County Records Local Products" records: "The fruit belongs to plum, apricot and peach ..." According to the "Wuxi County Records", in the early years of the Republic of China, there were many private agricultural products in Fu 'an Township (including Yangshan and Hudai towns), and peach trees were planted in pieces. Excellent varieties such as Baimang Flat Peach, Youlu Peach, Small Red Flower, Baifeng and Baihua were introduced from Fenghua, Feicheng, Shandong and Japan. In the 1920s, it was planted in the low hills around Yangshan and Hudai, mainly distributed in Yangshan area, and was called "Yangshan Peach". Yangshan peach has a large fruit shape, sweet juice as honey and rich fragrance. In the thirty-fourth year of the Republic of China (1945), the planting area of peach trees increased to more than 4,000 mu, with an annual output of more than 2,000 tons, which sold well in Shanghai, Suzhou, Changzhou, Nanjing and other places. It is famous in Shanghai and South Kyoto. Yangshan fruit farmers also put the trademark of their orchards on peach baskets for sale (Yangshan had the trademark of peach more than 60 years ago, and the trademark of Yu Yetao, a "Gengsheng brand" found in Yangshan Town, confirmed this. This 32-inch yellow paper logo is a peach with leaves and an old farmer with a cow. It is marked with the words "Gengsheng Trademark" next to it, with the words "Yu Yetao is sweet and delicious, and it is the most suitable gift for relatives and friends" and "Address: made in Gengsheng Taoyuan at the foot of Changyao Mountain in xinduqiao, Wuxi". According to research, this trademark was printed in the mid-1940s. In the mid-1950s, Taoyuan was all over Yangshan, covering an area of 1033 1 mu, monopolizing the market of fresh peaches and processed peaches in Shanghai. The canned Yangshan peaches processed by Shanghai Taikang Company were exported to foreign countries. Xindu (now the location of Yangshan Town) Xishan Bay is called "Jinshan Bay" because every family grows peaches to get rich. From the early 1970s to the late 1980s, Yangshan peaches were exported to Hong Kong, Macau and Singapore every year, with the highest annual export volume of 1.20 tons. In the mid-1990s, Yangshan region accelerated the pace of peach industrialization, built Yangshan peach market, established Yangshan peach farmers' association, further expanded the planting area, improved production facilities, communicated the peach forest road, established peach production demonstration and variety breeding test bases, and formulated Yangshan peach production technical regulations and Yangshan peach standards. Yangshan peach production began to be standardized, planting techniques and quality structure were continuously optimized, and the yield and quality were improved year by year. Yangshan peach has a planting area of 32,000 mu.
