"The source of Dayu's water control, the hometown of painted pottery king in China, the land where Baoan people live in compact communities, the paradise of eco-tourism, the hometown of China peppers, and the collection and recording base of world folk songs (flowers)" have become six unique business cards for Jishishan to go to the whole country and the world.

Jishishan pepper planting has a long history, which is the transitional zone between the Loess Plateau and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The unique natural climatic conditions provide unique growth conditions for pepper production. Pepper in Jishishan is famous for its big size, bright color, strong taste and mellow fragrance. Every pepper is picked, dried and selected by pepper farmers.
In 2004, Jishishan County was named as the "Hometown of Pepper in China" by the State Forestry Administration. In recent years, the county party committee and government have cultivated the pepper industry as a characteristic industry and a leading industry to increase people's income and get rid of poverty.
Through building bases, expanding scale, creating brands, grasping training and improving efficiency, a number of large and medium-sized pepper bases have been built one after another, and the planting area of pepper in the county has expanded rapidly, and pepper trees have truly become the "cash cow" for the poor people to get rid of poverty and become rich.
