What happened
Local authorities in Inner Mongolia are engaged in efforts to manage and transform sandy lands in the region. The project involves planting yellowhorn trees, which are noted for their tolerance to cold, drought, and poor soils. Across 4,600 mu of sandy land, approximately 308,200 yellowhorn trees have been planted and are now in a maintenance phase.
