In an era that prizes wellness and quality, an agricultural enterprise from Shanxi is standing out in the healthy-agriculture arena through its unwavering commitment to “Dao-Di” (authentic-origin) standards and a full-industry-chain layout. This week TENTENSO takes you on the “golden” journey of a single Astragalus root and into the story of Shanxi Jinlin Agricultural Development Co., Ltd.—a provincial-leading dragon-head enterprise in agricultural industrialization.

一、Company Profile

Established in June 2017, Shanxi Jinlin Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. integrates cultivation, primary processing, deep processing, sales and export of Chinese medicinal herbs. Brought in as a key investment by Datong municipal government, it has become a provincial dragon-head enterprise in agricultural industrialization and a major driver of rural revitalisation in the region.

Prime Origin, Nature-Gifted Dao-Di Quality

Good herbs are “grown” and also “nurtured”. Jinlin has planted 30,000 mu of standardised Astragalus fields in Tianzhen County, Shanxi—latitude 40–45° N, 1,100 m altitude, sandy loam and a wide day-night temperature gap—an ecological sweet spot for Astragalus.

Following a “human-cultivation & natural-nurturing” philosophy, the company refuses quick profits and insists on a minimum five-year growth cycle, allowing roots to absorb the essence of heaven and earth. Free from industrial pollution, the land yields roots that are thick, long, tough and classically “golden-bowl, silver-disc, chrysanthemum-core” in cross-section—medicinally potent and authentically Dao-Di.

二、Technology Empowerment – Full-Chain Control From Field to Cup

Premium raw material is only the starting point. Jinlin has invested RMB 85 million to build a complete chain covering planting, deep processing, R&D and sales.

Intelligent Processing: The production hall automates slicing, granulating, powdering and ultra-micro grinding, lifting added value and capacity dramatically.

International Certification: Both base and products have passed organic certifications for China, EU, USA and Japan, plus GLOBALG.A.P., and are listed in the National Directory of Famous, Special & Excellent Agricultural Products.

三、Innovation Driven – The Infinite Possibilities of “Astragalus Plus”

Jinlin goes beyond traditional herbs, exploring the “medicine & food homology” frontier and giving the ancient root a trendy twist.

????Classic Choice – Astragalus Oblique Slices

Five-year-plus roots are cut at 45° to release nutrients more easily; uniform slices with clear grain—perfect for teas and soups.

????Cross-Over Hit – Astragalus Coffee Instant Drink

What happens when Oriental herbals meet Western beverages? Co-developed by an internationally certified coffee Q-grader, the drink blends Vietnamese and Yunnan beans with organic Astragalus extract. It keeps coffee’s smooth aroma while adding the root’s sweet nourishment—three-second solubility, hot or cold, making wellness effortless.

????Inner Nourishment – Ginseng-Astragalus Collagen-Peptide Protein Drink

Inspired by the classical prescription Bao-Yuan Tang from Zhang’s Medical Compendium, and technologically supported by Furuida National Enterprise Technology Center, the formula focuses on Qi replenishment and blood nourishment—ideal for people with Qi-blood deficiency. Clean label: zero sucrose, flavourings, colourants or preservatives, offering pure, effective inner care.

四、Honors & Credentials – Trust Built on Strength

Years of cultivation have won Jinlin wide market recognition and numerous accolades:

Shanxi Provincial Dragon-Head Enterprise in Agricultural Industrialization

Datong Excellent Private Enterprise & Leading Agricultural Enterprise

Shanxi Poverty-Alleviation Dragon-Head Enterprise & Private Technology Enterprise

Conclusion

From ecological planting on the Loess Plateau to intelligent processing in modern workshops and future-oriented product innovation, Shanxi Jinlin Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. is leveraging a single Astragalus root to pry open the future of the big-health industry.

It is more than an agricultural company—it is a health companion devoted to integrating millennia-old Chinese wellness wisdom into the daily lives of modern people.
