Visionary practices transform Changting into fertile region
Two decades ago, the hills of Changting in southern China were bare, eroded and emblematic of environmental degradation. Xi, then deputy secretary of the Communist Party of China Fujian Provincial Committee and acting governor, made a special visit to Changting, making comprehensive soil erosion control as one of 15 key livelihood improvement projects of Fujian. Ye Min, head of the Fujian Provincial Department of Water Resources, said Xi, by personally spearheading the effort to combat soil erosion in Changting, has initiated a series of transformative practices that ignited a province-wide campaign to address the pressing issue of water erosion. Lan Siren, president of Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, said the historic breakthrough in Changting's soil erosion control lies in the focus on systematic and precise erosion management, as well as leveraging ecological advantages to drive industrial development. Cui Peng, an academician with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said Changting's soil erosion control has provided a Chinese solution for soil and water conservation and ecological security, becoming a model for global ecological restoration.
