China planted hundreds of millions of Populus euphratica forests in the largest desert. How is it now?

This desert is China's Taklimakan Desert. In this desert, it is all sand at a glance, and only a small number of creatures grow here. With people's activities, the desert is slowly expanding, and large areas of land have been swallowed up by the desert, and the residents living near the desert are also facing the dilemma of survival. So China launched a green program here in order to improve this phenomenon.

In our impression, the best way to control the desert is to plant plants, but the Taklimakan Desert is a mobile desert. Due to environmental and geographical factors, ordinary vegetation cannot take root in the Taklimakan Desert, and it is extremely water-deficient. The climate and huge evaporation make it difficult for plants to survive. But even so, our country has not given up on desert governance.

But Chu Xiang of Populus euphratica gives us hope. Populus euphratica itself has a strong vitality, and they can survive well even in the desert. Therefore, Populus euphratica has become a very important tool for China to control the Taklimakan Desert. The next step is to plant a large number of Populus euphratica in the desert.

Over the past few years, with the joint efforts of the staff and nearby residents, Populus euphratica has gradually grown. And it is also carrying out the work of windbreak and sand fixation day after day, so that the original lifeless desert area can see the hope of greening. In addition, these Populus euphratica forests have the role of windbreak and sand fixation, and the area of ​​desertification has gradually been effectively controlled in the past few years.

It is believed that in the near future, the problem of desertification in the Taklimakan Desert will also be well improved. Coupled with the roads built in the Taklimakan Desert, today's deserts are no longer as desolate as they used to be.
