The selection of the “new herb 4” velvet is a groundbreaking step forward in the selection and promotion of new varieties of herbs by the national technical system of herbry industry, the “improvement of pyramid-free sparrow varieties”, which will provide a strong support for the high-quality development of grass and livestock in the north-west of the country。
