Who wouldāve thought trees could grow in the desert without constant watering šµ?
China has achieved a breakthrough in desertācontrol technology: nonāirrigation afforestation. Saplings can survive relying purely on the desertās natural conditions, with no need for ongoing artificial watering.
The first trial planting took place on April 20 last year and ended in total failure, with a survival rate of 0%. After countless rounds of trials, the survival rate has jumped to 72.25% this yearā.
Amid the yellow sand, green shoots of hope are sprouting šæ.
