China新疆塔克拉玛干沙漠生态成果持续释放产业效益
CCTV.com reports (Xinwen Lianbo): Since the green sand-blocking shelterbelt around the edge of Xinjiang's Taklamakan Desert was joined up to form a complete perimeter, surrounding areas have continued to expand its edges and increase greenery. By "turning ecological resources into industries and making industries more ecological," they are continually translating ecological gains into industrial benefits.
央视网消息（新闻联播）：新疆塔克拉玛干沙漠边缘绿色阻沙防护带实现锁边合龙以来，周边地区持续推进扩边增绿，通过“生态产业化、产业生态化”，不断推动生态成果转化为产业效益。
In Hotan County on the southern edge of the Taklamakan Desert, rice paddies reclaimed from the desert are enjoying a bumper harvest. Combine harvesters move back and forth, completing harvesting, threshing, and cleaning in a single operation. In recent years, Hotan has used diversion canals to bring in snow and ice meltwater from the Kunlun Mountains. Through measures including high-standard farmland development, saline-alkali land treatment, and the selection and breeding of salt- and alkali-tolerant rice varieties, it has grown high-quality rice in the desert. The cultivation area now exceeds 20,000 mu.
在塔克拉玛干沙漠南缘的和田县，由沙漠改造的稻田迎来丰收，联合收割机往来穿梭，一次完成收割、脱粒、清选等作业。近年来，和田利用引水渠引来昆仑山的冰雪融水，同时通过高标准农田建设、盐碱地治理、耐盐碱水稻品种选育等措施，在沙漠中种出高品质水稻。目前，种植面积达到2万多亩。
In Aral City on the western edge of the Taklamakan Desert, oysters at saline-alkali water aquaculture bases have entered the harvesting season. Once harvested, the oysters are loaded onto refrigerated trucks and sent directly to major markets in surrounding areas. In recent years, with assistance from a Xinjiang aid team from Ningbo, Zhejiang, Aral has successfully raised oysters, East China Sea mud crabs, South China Sea groupers, and other kinds of seafood at the desert's edge by improving saline-alkali water and using "artificial seawater" formulation techniques. Previously unused saline-alkali waters are gradually becoming a "blue granary" that helps people increase their incomes and prosper.
在塔克拉玛干沙漠西缘的阿拉尔市，盐碱水养殖基地的生蚝进入捕捞季，打捞出来的生蚝装入冷链车后直接发往周边各大市场。近年来，在浙江宁波援疆团队的帮扶下，阿拉尔市通过盐碱水改良和“人工海水”调配技术，在沙漠边缘成功养出了生蚝、东海青蟹、南海石斑鱼等多种海鲜，昔日的闲置盐碱水域正逐步变成带动群众增收致富的“蓝色粮仓”。
To date, the total output value of Xinjiang's desert cash crops has reached nearly 29 billion yuan, helping more than 300,000 people in surrounding areas secure stable employment. Next, Xinjiang will continue to strengthen the foundations of its desert industries based on "ecological plants plus cash crops," turning sand hazards into benefits and deserts into treasure troves, and charting a new path for desertification control that combines ecological and economic benefits.
截至目前，新疆沙生经济作物总产值近290亿元，带动周边30余万人实现稳定就业。接下来，新疆将继续筑牢“生态植物+经济作物”的沙产业根基，让沙害变沙利、荒漠变宝库，走出一条生态效益与经济效益相结合的治沙新路。
