In order to better understand the current situation of Chinese oil-tea camellia production and further promote the sustainable development of the oil-tea camellia seed oil industry, the situation of the oil-tea camellia industry in China and Hunan province were analyzed, and the development trend and countermeasures of the oil-tea camellia industry in China were described. The consumption of oil-tea camellia seed oil in China has grown rapidly, and the increase in planting area and yield has promoted a substantial increase in the output of oil-tea camellia seed. The output of oil-tea camellia seeds in Hunan province has always ranked first in all production areas in China. The stable and high yield of oil-tea camellia seeds in Hunan province plays a vital role in the development of the national oil-tea camellia industry. The market demand for oil-tea camellia seed oil will be strong in the future, and the consumption will continue to increase. In addition, oil-tea camellia seed has broad development and application prospects in other fields. The development of Chinese oil-tea camllia industry can be promoted by developing a comprehensive production model for the base, strengthening the selection and breeding of new varieties of oil-tea camellia and research on supporting cultivation techniques, formulating relevant policies, and strengthening in-depth cooperation between oil-tea camellia enterprises and universities and scientific research institutions. |
