Shared Farms are one of China’s rural revitalization projects. In 2017, China’s southernmost island province took the national lead in developing shared farms. The aim was to make good use of Hainan's excellent ecological environment and unique tropical agricultural resources, combining tourism with ecology and other elements to promote the deep integration of the agriculture, tourism, education, culture, and healthcare industries. Let’s take a look at these Hainan shared farms - each with its own local vibe!
