Forty years ago, Xi Jinping, then Party Secretary of Zhengding County in Hebei Province, led a corn delegation from Shijiazhuang City to Iowa, known as the "America's Breadbasket," to exchange knowledge on corn cultivation and deep-processing technologies. It was through agriculture that he formed a connection with Iowa and developed a deep friendship with its sincere and friendly people.

Today, the seeds of friendship between the Chinese and American people have grown into a towering tree, and China has made remarkable achievements in accelerating the modernization of its agriculture and rural areas.

Today, American youth Emily visits Tayuanzhuang Village in Zhengding to experience a smart farm and witness the deep-rooted friendship forged over 40 years between Hebei Province, China, and the state of Iowa, USA.
