Qingshan Village is located in the northeast of Huanghu Town, Yuhang District, in Hangzhou City, Zhejiang province, China. Coordinated through its Living Labs for People, in collaboration with China Academy of Rural Development of Zhejiang University, School of Economics of Zhejiang University of Finance and Economics, and Government of Yuhang District, the CGIAR Research Initiative on Low-Emission Food Systems (Mitigate+) started developing a research-for-impact partnership with the Qingshan Village in 2023.
Merged from three small villages, Qingshan Village covers an area of 45.6 km2 and has a registered population of 2,662. The village has three medium-sized reservoirs, with approximately 80% of the land area covered by forests. Bamboo forestry occupies 90% of the village’s agricultural land, with the remaining agricultural land utilized for rice, tea, and vegetable cultivation. In 2022, agricultural production value reached 90 million RMB (US$12.5 million). Bamboo forestry, which encompasses the production of raw materials and bamboo shoots, represents the primary source of agricultural income for many local farmers.
