Abstract: 【Objective】To investigate and analyze the development status and problems of Pueraria lobata(Willd.) Ohwi var. thomsoni(Benth.) van der Maesen industry in Guangxi, and put forward development suggestions, so as to provide reference for accelerating the healthy and high-quality development of P. lobata industry in Guangxi.【Method】Based on the field survey investigation and data collection(2018-2020) of P. lobata producing areas in Guangxi, the development status and main problems of P. lobata industry in Guangxi were analyzed through the perspectives of planting area, major varieties, yield, processing, etc.【Result】Guangxi is the largest producing area of P. lobata in China, with a planting area of 10201 ha. Wuzhou, Guilin and Guigang are the main producing areas in Guangxi, accounting for 70.6% of the total planting area in the whole region. There were many enterprises and cooperatives engaged in the planting and processing of P. lobata in Guangxi, and developed some intercropping mode, such as P. lobata+peanut, P. lobata+ginger, P. lobata+bitter gourd, P. lobata+chieh qua, etc. Through offline and e-commerce sales of P. lobata fresh tuber, powder, tea, noodles, wine, egg yolk crisps, grains and other products, the economic benefits were good and the industry had a rapid development momentum. But at the same time, there were some problems in Guangxi P. lobata industry, such as low product popularity, lack of geographical indication products and other iconic brands;the breeding work lags behind, there were only a few good varieties selected successfully, and excellent varieties with high puerarin content were lack;cultivation technology and product quality were uneven, the degree of mechanization was very low;the utilization was mainly edible, the degree of comprehensive utilization was not high;less processing lines, backward processing equipment as well as weak basic research, these problems restricted the healthy and sustainable development of the industry.【Suggestion】Gui brand and leading enterprises should be established, strengthen the introduction, breeding and promotion of new varieties, establish standardized large-scale planting demonstration base, strengthen the transformation of production and processing technology, strengthen the integrated development of industrial chain, and strengthen the basic research of P. lobata.
