Spring Festival Grassroots Report: Uncovering the Overseas Journey of Sichuan Tea via International Freight Trains

2月5日，一列装载着1235吨优质川茶的中亚专列从成都国际铁路港鸣笛启程，标志着2022年四川茶叶出口迎来开门红。随着中欧班列和西部陆海新通道的快速发展，中国西部地区的国际贸易环境持续优化，为四川茶叶创造了前所未有的出口机遇。

February 5th witnessed a special Central Asia-bound freight train carrying 1,235 tons of premium Sichuan tea departing from Chengdu International Railway Port, marking a prosperous start for Sichuan tea exports in 2022. The continuous improvement of China-Europe freight trains and the New Western Land-Sea Corridor has significantly optimized international trade conditions in western China, creating unprecedented export opportunities for Sichuan tea.

作为本次茶叶专列的主要货主之一，四川华义茶叶有限公司总经理方义开在夹江县建立了13,400亩出口备案茶园基地，并配套建设了完整的茶叶加工生产线。在他的带动下，截至2021年，夹江县已建成10.85万亩符合欧盟标准的茶叶基地，其中出口备案基地超过10万亩。

As one of the major consignors, Sichuan Huayi Tea Co., Ltd. General Manager Fang Yikai established 13,400 acres of export-filed tea plantation base in Jiajiang County, complete with full processing facilities. Under his leadership, by 2021, Jiajiang County had developed 108,500 acres of EU-standard tea plantations, including over 100,000 acres of export-filed bases.

夹江县农业农村局副局长李秀林介绍："为达到欧盟严苛标准，我们采用诱虫灯物理防治替代传统化学方法，连间种树种都精选红豆杉和桢楠等抗病虫害品种。"

Jiajiang County Agriculture Bureau Deputy Director Li Xiulin explained: "To meet stringent EU standards, we've adopted physical pest control methods like insect traps instead of traditional chemicals, even carefully selecting yew and nanmu trees as intercropping species for their pest resistance."

2021年，四川先后发出两列茶叶出口专列，华义茶叶全年出口绿茶近4000吨，货值超600万美元，中亚市场份额持续扩大。四川百岳茶业董事长蒋静伟表示，公司自有品牌绿茶已销往20多个国家和地区，包括摩洛哥和俄罗斯。

In 2021, Sichuan dispatched two special tea export trains. Huayi Tea exported nearly 4,000 tons of green tea worth over $6 million, expanding its Central Asia market share. Sichuan Baiyue Tea Chairman Jiang Jingwei noted their branded green tea now reaches over 20 countries and regions, including Morocco and Russia.

夹江县副县长薛怀军指出，仅绿茶出口带动的夏秋茶机采技术推广，就使茶农亩均增收2000元以上。2021年，夹江县出口茶叶3.2万吨，出口额突破10亿元，助推四川茶叶出口占比从全国5%跃升至30%。

Jiajiang County Deputy Magistrate Xue Huaijun highlighted that mechanized harvesting technology for summer-autumn tea alone increased farmers' income by over 2,000 yuan per acre. In 2021, the county exported 32,000 tons of tea worth 1 billion yuan, helping elevate Sichuan's share in national tea exports from 5% to 30%.
