The vegetables on the table of a Hong Kong family might be grown in Guizhou, some 1,000 km away, because the vegetable industry is becoming a new bridge for connecting the western China province with the Pan-Pearl River regions.

Zhou Qing, a local farmer in Sandu county, said he earned 18,400 yuan ($3,000) in the first quarter of this year from cabbage he planted, and in the second quarter growing tomatoes brought him another 20,000 yuan.

Zhou has improved his life by growing vegetables in recent years on his 0.22-hectare plot of farmland.
