Puqi is known as the "hometown of ramie". Nowadays, it is one of the key counties for ramie production in the province

"Tea is produced in the south and hemp is produced in the northwest", which reflects the distribution of ramie in Chunpu. In the past, the main production areas for ramie were Chengxiang, Chebu, Xindian, and Shenshan.

After planting late rice, the second hemp is harvested. After cutting late rice, the third hemp is harvested.
