00:00Hello everyone, I am in Shandong, China where the world's largest vegetable expo is being held.
00:06So let's go inside and make some fascinating discoveries and find out what this is all about.
00:30Dear viewers, we find ourselves at the heart of the labyrinth and our mission is to find
00:40the longest vegetable, the largest vegetable, the most technologically advanced vegetable
00:46and the least recognisable vegetable.
00:49So let's find these together.
00:54So we have tiny heirloom tomatoes and right next to these are these almost black, deep
01:04violet.
01:05So to my right and to my left is a display of soilless coconut farming, but they're not
01:11just ordinary flowers.
01:13These are traditional Chinese medicine herbs.
01:16You must be wondering, this looks like a pumpkin, but it is not a pumpkin.
01:21It is a tomato.
01:22This is the self-pollination robot.
01:25It is automatic pollination.
01:27It recognises different kinds of seeds, uses air and also other flows to be able to automatically
01:34pollinate within greenhouses.
01:49This one looks the best.
01:55I can move it a little bit.
01:57This is a ginormous pumpkin.
02:01It is 400 jin or 200 kilograms.
02:05And this entire section is filled with pumpkins about this size.
02:11Can you guess what is that in the air?
02:14That is sweet potatoes.
02:16Each potato is about 10 times larger than an average sweet potato.
02:21And what this new technology is enabling is that we don't need to grow these potatoes
02:26underground.
02:27There is a very advanced intelligence system that results in just 60 square metres of space
02:34being able to cultivate 2,400 kilograms of sweet potatoes every year, all year round.
02:42After hours of hard work, searching, searching for the longest vegetable, here in front of
02:48me is a loofah.
02:51This one here is not only one metre long, not only two metres long, it is almost three
02:58metres long.
02:59And my friends, this is one of our final destinations, the longest vegetable here at the Shougang
03:05Vegetable Expo.
03:06And there are really small plants that we are used to seeing.
03:10But here, we have a tomato tree, which is spanning 80 metres square, which is capable
03:17of growing 3,000 kilograms of tomatoes every year.
03:40We just stumbled across the cutest and most useful machine I couldn't even have imagined
03:50exists.
03:51This is a tractor that can not only elevate in height, it can carry a whopping 750 kilograms
04:00of weight and make it easy for farmers to move from one place to another.
04:05We have seen plants grow in soil, in substitutes of soil, or in water.
04:11But can you imagine fruits and vegetables thriving without water, without soil?
04:17Here we have aerosol agriculture that is creating an air environment through moisture, giving
04:23precisely the nutrients that these plants need to help them grow, help them thrive.
04:29We have arrived at the epitome of scientific advancement in agriculture technology.
04:35Here we have plants that are not only thriving in deserts and unbecoming climatic situations,
04:42they are thriving in outer space.
04:45And another interesting thing is, this is also a story of Pakistan-China collaboration.
04:50The tomatoes that were thriving in space, they came from seeds that were from Pakistan.
04:58So why is Shoguang Shandong the host of the largest vegetable expo in the world?
05:04So what is the ultimate secret behind this special status?
05:09Let's find out what it's all about.
