Apocynum is a special kind of Chinese herbal, which can be used to extract a unique fiber from its straw. Such fiber not only shares the similar characteristics of cotton, linen and silk, but also has a natural far infrared function and traditional Chinese medicine function. Therefore, many pharmaceutical company in the world are interested in developing the technologies that utilizes this attractive and profitable fibers. However, apocynum separation is a difficult process, mainly because the straw of the apocynum contains 25% gelatine, which makes processing apocynum very costly. A worker can separate only 2 kilograms apocynum a day, even after the apocynum has been prepared for processing, which requires being soaked in water for more than a month.

We expected to harvest and separate 100,000 tons of apocynum by this winter and next spring, which will increase Shineco's revenue for about 300 million RMBin 2018. In the meantime, encouraged by the China's preferential tax policy for the agricultural products, we expected our net profit margin can reach 35% in the following year."
