Ninghai Merlin Chicken is a national intangible cultural heritage.

When it comes to the deliciousness of broiler chicken, Ninghai local chicken is the most famous in Ningbo. However, the reporter learned in an interview yesterday that the top quality Ninghai local chicken will be renamed "Ninghai Meilin Chicken" in the future, instead of being collectively referred to as "Ninghai local chicken".

"Currently, new packaging for our related chicken products has been designed, and some new chicken product delivery coupons have also been printed. The names marked on these new packages and delivery coupons have been changed to 'Ninghai The Meilin chicken is gone." Chen Xihang, vice president of Ningbo Zhenning Animal Husbandry Co., Ltd., the largest local chicken breeding enterprise in our province and famous for its production and sales of Ninghai local chickens, confirmed to the Evening News reporter yesterday.

In the field of specialty chicken product sales, farm-raised broilers in Ninghai have always been famous for their delicious, fragrant and tender meat. In May 2000, after the establishment of Zhenning Animal Husbandry Company, the resources of Ninghai local specialty farm chicken farmers were integrated one by one. At that time, this kind of chicken was named "Ninghai native chicken" and the registered trademark was "Zhenning" brand. In addition, Zhenning Animal Husbandry Company also specially registered the online real name of "Ninghai Native Chicken" on the Internet. Due to its excellent quality and distinctive features, "Ninghai local chicken" has become well-known to most Ningbo consumers in just a few years.
