Notes

    Bird's nests refer to coagulated nests made by swiftlets or a variety of swiftlets of the same genus by mixing their saliva with down feathers. Bird's nests sold in markets are processed by removing the feathers from the nests after collection. They are presented in the shape of bird's nests, bird's strands, bird's silk, and other shapes, and are edible agricultural products.

    Packaged grain transportation is grain packaged and transported. In China, it is mainly packaged in hemp sacks. It is the traditional method of grain transportation in China, which involves high costs, large losses, and low efficiency. Loose grain transportation refers to the loose packaging, loose unloading, loose storage, and loose transportation of grain. It is the current international grain transportation method. Compared with packaged grain transportation, it improves logistics efficiency and saves turnover costs.
