With Jiande city in East China's Zhejiang province being ranked as a national demonstration zone for organic products, the city has developed into an incubator for rural start-ups in recent years.

More than 3,000 people have flocked into the city; they invested over 12 billion yuan ($1.8 billion) to start their businesses in modern agriculture, farming products, rural e-commerce and rural tourism.
