Among them, Huapi kumquat is a new kumquat variety that was discovered and successfully selected by agricultural scientists in Rong'an County, Guangxi in 1981 in Dajiang Town. The cultivation began in 1984. After more than 20 years of cultivation observation, this variety has stable traits, good yield, good quality, and easy to cultivate, but it has more pests than ordinary kumquats.
