Arkin Reyim is a 51-year-old cotton farmer with more than 300 mu (20 hectares) of cotton fields in the Bax Mali Village of Yuli County in Xinjiang. Arkin's courage and unique vision has prompted him to start growing cotton in 2004 when he got married with his wife Hasiyat Kasim. Since then, Arkin has devoted himself into the cultivation of cotton for over 10 years, thus making him an experienced cotton grower in the county. In this year, Arkin bought the Beidou navigation system with 8,000 yuan (about 1155.5 U.S. dollars) to have it installed into his tractor, as a way to mechanise the growing process and improve efficiencies. Yuli County in Xinjiang is suitable for the growing of cotton due to its unique natural conditions. It has become an important commod

In Doilungdeqen District of Lhasa, more than 90 villagers of the Donggar community gathered on Xiga Mountain Tuesday to earth up saplings. They planned to plant about 2,000 saplings on this day. Xiga Mountain, which once was barren with rocks, has transformed its appearance since a proposal by Rigzin, a group leader of the Donggar community, in 2013 to utilize part of the collective income for tree-planting. From the year of 2013 to 2020, a total of 28.54 million yuan (about 3.97 million U.S. dollars) was invested, greening 800 mu (about 53.33 hectares) of the mountain land. Thanks to related policies rolled out by local government, villagers of the group planted an area of 1,200 mu (about 80 hectares) with trees in 2021. In 2022, Rigzin's group was granted a loan of 24 million yuan (about 3.34 million U.S. dollars) to j
