They were included in the "Chinese Livestock and Poultry Breeds" as early as the 1980s. The Lushi chicken is known for its unique geographical location, climatic characteristics and human factors, as well as its high protein, low cholesterol and outstanding quality characteristics.

The egg yolks account for 35 eggs. %, significantly higher than the average chicken, especially the green shell egg has the characteristics of "three high and one low", namely high selenium, high zinc, high iodine and low cholesterol, so it is known as u0026quot;gins in eggsu0026quot; . From 1968 to 1980, the external adjustment of Lushi's fresh eggs has always ranked first in Luoyang. Origin of the environment Lushi County, Henan Province is located at the eastern end of the Qinling Mountains, with Lushan Mountain in the north, Xiong'er Mountain in the middle, and Funiu Mountain in the south across the whole territory, with Xiong'er Mountain as the watershed, north in the Yellow River Basin and south in the Yangtze River Basin. There are 4,037 large mountain peaks and more than 2,400 rivers. The main rivers are Luohe, Qihe, Guanhe, etc. It is known as the “eight mountains, one water and one field”. With its special geographical location and good natural environment, Lushi County has become a treasure trove of animal and plant resources. According to the survey, there are 1,225 kinds of Chinese herbal medicines grown in the county. It is known as the "three-step one-drug" trademark. There are 52 species in 10 categories. In the southwestern mountainous area of ​​the county, there are still ginkgo, known as plant fossils, and rare animals and plants such as the national secondary protected animal. It is the best area for development and farming. Historical origins The history of Lushi chicken can be traced back to the Zhou dynasty. According to historical records, as early as the Zhou dynasty, there was a special chicken officer for the sacrifice of the gift, and the Lao State where Lushi County was located was a subsidiary of the Zhou Dynasty. Lushi County is located between Beijing (now Xi'an) and Luojing (now Luoyang), about 300 kilometers away from the two places. In 1959, the archaeological department of Henan Province and the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences found fossils of chickens in Lushi and surrounding areas, which indicates that Lushi chickens have been in existence for a long time. For thousands of years, after the generations of the ancestors and their own evolutionary breeding, the population characteristics of Lushi chickens have become increasingly obvious, and regional characteristics have gradually formed. In order to turn the traditional resource advantage of Lushi chicken into economic advantage, in 2005, Lushi County first formulated the core standards of Lushi Chicken Breeding Management Technical Specification and Lushi Chicken Quality Technical Requirements, Lushi The chicken local standard system has gradually formed. In April 2006, Lushi chicken became a geographical indication product. The second is to carry out the construction of the Lu's chicken standardization demonstration project. As a leading company of Lushi chicken, Sante Animal Husbandry Co., Ltd. took the lead in submitting an application for the use of special signs to the AQSIQ. The Lloyd's Quality Supervision Bureau assisted it in applying for the Lushi Chicken Henan Agricultural Standardization Demonstration Project, and established the principle of cultivating leading enterprises, strengthening large-scale breeding bases, supporting typical demonstrations, and taking the road of brand + scale operation. In the operation, the company adopts the development model of company + base + farmers, promotes the integration of animal husbandry and industry, and implements regional layout, specialized production, serial processing, integrated management, socialized service and standardized management. Through the market leader, the leading base, and the base of the farmers, the production of Lushi chicken has embarked on the track of standardization and industrialization. With the deepening of Lushi chicken industrialization development, the quality of Lushi chicken has been further improved. The market price of chicken and eggs has increased from 7.5 yuan/kg in 2005 to 21 yuan/kg in 3 years, and the price of Lushi eggs has risen. Twice, the three special green shell eggs are exported to dozens of cities and regions such as Beijing, Shanghai and Xi'an, which are in short supply. In addition, due to the implementation of the packaged chicken seedling technology, package technology training, package special feed and culture equipment supply, epidemic disease prevention, recovery of finished chicken and eggs, and the implementation of market protection price measures, greatly reducing the risk of participating farmers, improve The enthusiasm of the chicken farmers in rural areas to raise Lushi chickens. Radiation has driven the rapid development of chicken farming in 18 townships in Lushi County.
