dc.descriptionThis document describes a long-term forest management and afforestation initiative in Saihanba Forest Farm in Hebei Province, established in 1962 to improve environmental conditions, prevent sand movement, conserve water, and protect northern regions including Beijing and Tianjin. It outlines two main stages: large-scale afforestation under harsh climatic conditions using adapted planting techniques, followed by sustained scientific forest management. The scope includes national and local institutional involvement, significant public investment, and continuous implementation. Key findings indicate substantial increases in forest area, coverage, and timber volume, alongside measurable improvements in local climate conditions, carbon storage, pollution absorption, and economic benefits through tourism and related industries.en
