  This inspection and exchange visit has deepened our understanding of corporate culture and the importance of extending and strengthening industrial chains. We have profoundly realized that corporate culture is a vital source of productivity, and that extending and supplementing industrial chains is a viable strategy for hedging against industry risks. As a national key leading enterprise in agricultural industrialization and the president unit of the Hubei Province Poultry Association, Shendi Group—having devoted 19 years to green laying hen farming and egg processing—has become a large-scale enterprise that has achieved full-chain development in the egg industry. We will carefully learn from Shanxi’s outstanding initiatives in poultry industry development, further liberate our thinking, innovate our approaches, and truly transform the outcomes of this study tour into driving forces for the sustainable development of our own enterprise and for promoting high-quality development of our province’s poultry industry.
