After completing the complex process of fuming and steaming, scraping, cutting, carving, scalding, bleaching, pasting and polishing, wheat straw becomes a delicate material that can be used in hand-crafted art.
In October of 2020, wheat straw paintings were listed as a provincial-level intangible cultural heritage in Shandong. The craft is part of a special industry in Poli town and has boosted local farmers' incomes.
