The Hainan Free Trade Port (FTZ) is the world's only island-wide free trade port that fully integrates agriculture, rural areas and farmers. Designated as a national pilot zone, it aims to turn Hainan into a global hub for tropical agri-products.
One of the FTZ's four key open industries is tropical high-efficiency agriculture. By cutting tariffs, streamlining customs and building digital trade platforms, Hainan is sending more fresh fruits, vegetables and specialty goods to buyers around the world.
Local farmers and agri-tech startups are leveraging smart irrigation, precision data and blockchain-based traceability to boost yields and quality. This policy-driven ecosystem is fueling a surge in export volumes and attracting attention from business and tech enthusiasts across G20 markets.
For young global citizens, sustainable travel fans and changemakers, Hainan's agri-export boom is more than a trade headline: it shows how targeted policies and innovation can empower rural communities, foster green supply chains and bring exotic flavors to global tables.
