In the past four years, since the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) has become a national strategy, Anhui Province has achieved practical results with high-quality by based on reality and deepening cooperation. Anhui is a vital production, processing and supply base for green agricultural products in the YRD. In May 2020, Anhui Province launched the "158" action plan to establish 500 green agricultural products demonstration bases for YRD by 2025. In 2021, Anhui Province established a total of 256 provincial-level green agricultural product production, processing and supply bases. The agricultural products sold to Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang reached 47.59 billion yuan (about 7.03 billion U.S. dollars), a year-on-year increase of 27%. The green agricultural products of Anhui, the "big vegetable garden," are speeding up to the "table" in the YRD. With the continuous construction of hub-type, functional and networked infrastructure systems, The "YRD on the track" makes the spatial distance between Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui more and more "closer". The beautiful ecological environment and natural resources of Anhui Province have attracted more and more citizens of Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang to turn their attention to Anhui, the "rear garden" of health preservation and leisure.
